I've been having a lot of anxiety, lots of physical symptoms. i've been prescribed escitalopram and sedoxil. i just started but i'm so afraid side eff. i feel horrible with them and without them. should i continue taking them? they make me feel bad.

Treatment plan : You stated that you "feel horrible with them" - does that mean you have severe side effects? Please let your prescribing doctor know how you are doing. The SSRI is a standard medication that is used for treatment of anxiety. Sedoxil (Mexaxolan) is a type of benzodiazapine that might be better suited for shorter term use. We can't tell you whether you should or should not take them. Talk to Dr.
