assalam o alaikum.... mujy 2 years se anxiety issues thay... last year mene ak psychologist ki recommendation se medicine start ki thi CITANEW 10mg.. ab al hamdulillah me boht behtr hu... 1 saal se ziadda hune laga h mujhay medicine use krtay huay... ab meri pregnancy start hu gai he... or me medicine quit krna chahti hu bcz meri doc ne kaha ha k subconsciously baby heart rate effect huta ha is med se... or mera apne psychologist se koi rabta nahi hu pa raha.. kindly mujjay batayen k me kab tak or kese apni medicine quit kr sakti hu.. thank u sooo much??❤❤
walaikumAsalam your daily routine? any stress history? physical activity?
this medicine usually is not preferred in pregnancy and general u should not stop them abruptly. to stop a medication or not depends upon patients situation.
ist thing p, psychologists are not allowed to prescribe medicines. ho skta hy wo psychiatrist hn.
agr ap medicine rokna chahti hyn to apni anxiety r stress ko khtm krny k lie clinical psychologist se psychotherapy k lie sessions lyn.
sessions k lie ap mj se appointment le skti hyn .

If u r stable for 1 year and as this in Not a safe medicine in pregnancy plz strat tappering off , means take 1/2 tablet for 2-3 weeks n then stop. Although there is a risk of Anxiety coming back , u can get some therapy n avoid meds in pregnancy .Only if needed then to see a good psychiatrist for discussion around balance between Risk in pregnancy n taking meds , and they may consider Sertraline which is slightly safer than others. Good luck and stop it as said . Not sure how old is your pregnancy . In future see a qualified psychiatrist for advice on Medication Not psychologist.
