What Causes Lack Of Focus While Treating Anxiety And Bipolar Disorder?

I m diagnosed with add, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. I m currently on Lexipro but it s not working for me, he needs to prescribe something that will keep me more focused, and able to pay attention better. I don t want to spend another 500 for a Physiatric visit, so if you guys can recommend and prescribe me something you feel would do me better than the meds I m on, and a better price quote it would greatly be appreciated.

Hi,

Sorry to hear about your problem. You are right certain drugs may not work, or may need higher doses. This cannot be predicted but we need to wait for drugs to work and to change drug if didn't work.

I am sorry to say this would not be possible to prescribe the drug online as it would need proper assessment by your doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Mahboob Ur Rahman , General & Family Physician
