How To Get Rid Of Oleanz 10mg Mediated Side Effect?
My son age 17years is taking oleanz 10mg along with soltus 50 mg. Now that doctor advised to slowly reduce the dosage to 5mg and then 2.5 mg and in15 days time stop the oleanz. the first reduction to 5 mg is making him violent for some time during the night otherwise he is ok during the day. He is not sleeping on time, and his elation and drooling is there. Can you suggest what is to be done.

Hi,
It would have to be done in connection with a lot of other factors with the doctor's supervision. Could be lowering or elevating the dose or mostly going with a different medicine that has similar effects. Elation and drooling would be with severe mania and several medicines are usually used together.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
