Question 1

anti-psychotic medication (amisulpride) giving me anxiety, restlessness and agitation. anything that can help?

Accepted Answer

Contact Dr.: You need to contact your doctor if the medication is making you feel worse. You may need to be switched to another medication or perhaps have your dose lowered. They may also place you on a medication just for side effects.

Question 2

hello, i drink over 500mg caffeine and i take 3 medications : setraline + amisulpride together when i wake up + quetiapine before bed. also i drink 4-5 liters of water per day, how can i treat uncontrollable burps that stays all day long?

Accepted Answer

: Antidepressants can cause frequent belching. You should talk to your doctor for this possible adverse effect and one medication can be switched one at a time for identifying the culprit. Drinking 4-5 liters of water a day is too much, not healthy in the long run. If possible, you should cut it down to less than 3 liters a day.

Question 3

is amisulpride induced infertility reversible after discontinuation of the drug? also, do the prolactin levels return to normal after discontinuation?

Accepted Answer

Probably: Amisulpride is an atypical antipsychotic medication that is not available in the United States. It is reported to increase prolactin levels, which can depress fertility. The prolactin levels should return to normal upon discontinuation of the drug, but this has not been studied in the U.S.

Question 4

what is the purpose of amisulpride in scizophrenia ?

Accepted Answer

: Psychiatrists prescribe amisulpride for the treatment of what they diagnose as schizophrenia. This drug is a dopamine antagonist which means it blocks this neurotransmitter in the brain. Psychiatrists hypothesize too much dopamine causes what they label as schizophrenia. There is no actual valid scientific evidence this is true. Blocking dopamine in the brain can have very serious side effects.

Question 5

how fast does amisulpride works in body if i am having scizophrenia ?

Accepted Answer

: I strongly recommend that you contact a pharmacologist to answer these questions you have about this medication because I want you to have complete confidence in it. I think it will help you immensely to have that full confidence in your treatment. That understanding of your medication will also prove therapeutic for you.

Question 6

i am suffering from hallucinations from past 5 months. i have been taking amusulpride from past 1 week. will amisulpride help me ?

Accepted Answer

: It is imperative that you consult a psychiatrist. Hallucinations are a serious issue and not a matter for self treatment. There are other medications for such an issue and your doctor would be in a position to choose the best one for.
Wish you good health!

Question 7

how long does it take prolactin levels to reduce to normal levels after discontinuation of amisulpride which caused hypoprolactinemia? thanks

Accepted Answer

Drugs and prolactin: It can take a few months for the prolactin to come down.  However, all the drugs in this class cause elevated prolactin.  Your profile says you are on quetiapine:  this will elevate prolactin too.  However, the elevated prolactin from these drugs may be an annoyance (disrupted periods, perhaps galactorrhea), but is not serious.  More important to treat the underlying condition.

Question 8

is mirtazapine and amisulpride agood combination?

Accepted Answer

It depends: Mirtazapine is antidepressant and amisulpride is an antipsychotic. The combination could be useful for treatment of depression with psychotic symptoms.

Question 9

what to do if my amisulpride has been reduced to 200mg. do i still need to take procyclidine 5mg with it?

Accepted Answer

YES/NO : some may need it some may not, depending on the severity of the EPS side effects you had on the higher dosage of Sulpride.
please discuss this with your prescriber who may be the best  to help you with this 
good luck and feel better
