Question 1

how long does ssri discontinuation symptoms last? stopped cold turkey ( bad i know) fromm zoloft (sertraline) 200mg once a day??

Accepted Answer

Abrupt stopping meds: it is never wise to stop a medication abruptly. Side effects and discontinuation symptoms (drug company buzz for withdrawal symptoms) are always present. Should be done under your physician's supervision and should be tapered off and not abrupt

Question 2

i take valium 30mg daily, cut off cold turkey from my ambien (zolpidem) 20mg taken for yrs. has caused me bad withdrawal symptoms, but am i safe from seizures?

Accepted Answer

If still taking Vali: Withdrawal from Ambien (zolpidem) can be difficult but seizures would be very unlikely.  Valium is an excellent drug to avoid seizure activity.

Question 3

hi, i want to wean myself off of flonase. i tried going cold turkey for 5 days, and the withdrawal symptoms were so bad. i sprayed it into both of my nostrils today once. how long will it take to be completely off of it?

Accepted Answer

Flonase: Couple of weeks probably.  Maybe never if you have bad seasonal allergic rhinitis and require topical nasal steroid to control it.  Flonase quite harmless if you need it to control your symptoms.

Question 4

i ate left over turkey and half way into eating it i noticed a little bit of mold. idk if what i had already ate had some? is this going to be bad?

Accepted Answer

Mold on turkey: You will probably survive to eat turkey another day. Leaving turkey out and eating it with salmonella on it is much worse. There are cheeses with mold like blue cheese. Penicillin is mold. If you experience nausea, diarrhea, wheezing, or breathing problems, seek help.
