Isn't Cital and Existent too much for the beginning of treatment?

As a pharmacist, I am not able to assess your medical situation and provide a precise answer. I can only give general information about medicines. Cital and Egzysta are drugs that counteract depression and anxiety, belonging to the group of SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors). The dosage of these drugs depends on many factors, such as the severity of symptoms, individual tolerance of the patient and the recommendations of a psychiatrist. For most patients, it starts with lower doses and then gradually increases as needed and the body reacts. The exist should be taken in 2-3 divided doses, in the range of 150-600 mg / day. The dosage of Cital in adult patients is usually 20 mg once a day. The therapeutic effect of antidepressants is usually achieved after 3-6 weeks after the inclusion of the full dose, and too frequent change of drugs can lead to the so-called "drug resistance" (i.e. any preparations stop working). Please be patient and try to trust the treating doctor. If, despite everything, you have doubts, I encourage you to consult your doctor again. It is the doctor who decides whether to treat the patient m.in based on the history of the disease and the previous response to treatment. Only a doctor can decide on a possible change in pharmacotherapy.
