Hello doctor,I am on Sulpitac 50 mg, Xet CR 25 mg, Pregabid NT at night and Waklert 50, Beta cap 20 in the morning. I have a long history of paranoia and depression. Currently, the only symptom is excessive hair scratching. My hand is always on my eyebrows. The problem is particularly bad at night. There is some twitching or tingling in fingers. Please suggest any adjustment of medicine. Could this be due to any of the medications I am taking?
Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum. No, I do not think any medicine is causing this. The compulsive scratching or pulling of hair could be due to unconscious anxiety. You are on Paroxetine 25, and if the anxiety is still persistent, then we can think of increasing the dose to 37.5 mg. Increase in dose would help in controlling the unwanted impulses. You can talk to your doctor about that. Apart from this please start taking good vitamin B12 supplement which will also help in early recovery.
