Will Manasamitra vatakam and Saraswatiristam help in palpitation after Clonazepam withdrawal?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I could understand how much confusion you experience and your mental pain. So far, fewer studies have been done if we combine allopathy drugs with Ayurveda or Siddha drugs. In your case, I feel you should continue the allopathy drugs for 15 days (or above as per the physician's instruction). I feel you can also have Propranolol to reduce the palpitation. You can continue the allopathy drugs for particular days. In order to avoid addiction, the gradual (stepwise dose reduction) reduction of tablets should be followed. For example: from day 16th onwards, half tablet to be continued for the next week, then every alternate day half tablet for the next week, then every 4th day half a tablet for the next week, then stop it. This can be done with the advice of the physician. Few research in animals has proved that Manasamitra tablet could increase serotonin levels, but no 100 % guarantee was given. Many clinical sharing conclude that these three ayurvedic drugs are useful if the patient starts the therapy in the early stage of the disease. And also good for long-term treatment. Hence, in your case adding these drugs will surely have some beneficial role.

You do not stop these Ayurvedic drugs, continue it for the next six months. You join a regular yoga class or training class (daily continuously) for the next six months. In my experience, after six months, you can stop all medications including Ayurveda, and can run the best life only with yoga practice. Yoga practice at home is free of cost. Many people got miracle relief from anxiety, and depression and can focus on their studies or business, or particular work, with good sleep and a good diet. You find out your interested hobby. Be it plants, pets, colored fishes, walking, playing, picnic, temples, etc. Focus on these. You will come out of the stressful anxiety.

I hope this helps.

In psychiatry conditions, very rarely the disease persists always. Most of the time, this is periodic or occurs after some stimulation, provocation, or randomly. Hence, one cannot think that the disease is completely cured as the symptoms are solved now. It requires a holistic therapy in which drugs, family, and friends care, improving the economy and education in students, psychology counseling etc. Ideally, one need not take the drug continuously, it can be taken only during the appearance of symptoms. Unfortunately, we do not realize that it is the disease's symptoms, hence do not consult a physician. If you are more positive, you can immediately approach the nearby physician, where ever you are, and follow their drugs. It will not cure automatically. You need mental and physical support. My additional advice is to consult a psychology counselor, who will train you to overcome. Also, start yoga and pranayama practice. These two will make you live happily without drugs. This is my personal advice.

For immediate control of symptoms, please continue the allopathy drugs. These Ayurvedic drugs are correct for this condition, but it will take a minimum of two weeks to show minimal results. The improvement will be a comparatively long period even after stopping the drug. Hence, it is good for the prophylaxis of future symptoms. It is not necessary to take Ayurvedic drugs for this condition. If you consume also, it will take two weeks to show a beneficial effect. It is up to you. The excess salivation is due to parasympathetic activity. This activity is excess due to some sour foods or drugs or psychological factors like happiness, thinking about some interesting food or flavor, etc. There are some drugs (anticholinergic drugs) we use to reduce salivation. It is usually given before surgery to reduce salivation during surgery. If your salivation is continuous and disturbing, then think about drugs. Otherwise, just ignore it.
