Are Arip Mt,Kemadrine And Inderal Safe For Treatment Of Depression?
Question: Hi, I am 37 years old and i have started seeing a counsellor phsycologist as my husband of 13 years has suddenly with no prior warning has decided he wants to seperate. Yes i am constantly crying but i dont have any speach issues or paranoia etc. Understandably i am scared as i am fully dependant on him as well as still in love with him. The doc did a small Q & A test and and image test and said i am not clinically depressed but having some meds might help me control my crying and help me be strong. I am scared as these meds sound very serious and was wondering if any body could give any advice please.Arip Mt - 5mg - 1nce at night,
Kemadrine 2.5 - 2ce a day and Inderal 40 - 1nce at night - is what he has suggested for 2 weeks.

Brief Answer:
The prescription doesnt make much sense
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
The prescription that your doctor has given doesnt make much sense and in no way matches your complains. Your complains suggest that you could be having a stress reaction. You will require a short course of benzodiazepines or at most a short course of escitalopram.
Taking aripiprazole - an antipsyhotic cannot explain your treatment.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
If not, you may close the discussion and if possible you may rate the answer for me, so that I get a good feedback.
