Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.
I can understand your concerns.

Nexito LS contains escitalopram (antidepressant) and clonazepam(sleep aid).

You are facing tension in job and don't like to go to office.

If this affecting your daily life even at home and your social life and is making you depressed, then you should take this drug.

If sleep is also a problem, then you can take this combination drug. If your sleep is normal, then you can take plain Nexito.

Escitalopram is a relatively safe drug and is a very good antidepressant. This should help you.

Hope to have answered your query satisfactorily.

Feel free to ask if you have more doubt's.
Take care.
