Common Questions and Answers about Psychotic reaction to medication
psychotic
I am not familiar with that medication. Use Google and search the term, go to the home page of the manufactuer and read the possible side effects or merely ask the pharmacist that filled the RX of the MD that wrote the script.
s a permanent condition and she would have to take medication for the rest of her life. If one is referring to an extreme reaction to trauma, that isn't really a psychosis, though one might describe it colloquially as a psychotic reaction because the behavior is that of one who is psychotic. She's probably using the term tranquilizer unscientifically, but if she was in a shock condition that simulates psychosis and might have indeed been put on an injection for fast relief of it.
I really cant help if after the birth of her last baby, if she wasnt put on an antidepressant, and shes not having a bad reaction. News says she is in hospital now and try are trying to get a court order to force her to take the meds which she is currently refusing.
Mabey SHE knows more than the doctors regarding whats making her act so bizzare...
I've been smoking marijuana for about 5 years. I've been diagnosed bipolar for about 2 years. I get horrible depression because of my bipolar. I recently had a really bad reaction to pot. REALLY bad. I almost killed myself, screamed at my friends, and vomited for 2 days. No one else that smoked it had a bad reaction. I haven't had a medication change recently. I'm on lamictal, seroquel, wellbutrin, cymbalta, and adderall. I don't know what happened.
I don't know how many of you are familiar with Akathisia which is a reaction to certain drugs such as antipsychotics and SSRIs. I had this reaction after taking some medicine for nausea that had an antipsychotic and also when I took metoclopramide.
This was by far the worst feeling in earth. You feel like you have been buried alive. When you are still you feel an aweful urge to move and when you move you feel extremely tired.
He started this med in early June (not the first time) his P-doc told him to take it at 6pm because he had to be at work by 7a.m...and it takes that amount of time minimum to wear off enough to wake up and be functional.
This lasted approx 6-8 weeks than he found he needed less and less sleep.
after being on it for approx. 3 months in fact he needed an extra amount at bedtime inorder to fall asleep!
my son has seizures and has a hard time with learning do to the seizures.I don't think it has to do with the medicines he is on or has been on.
People who have seizures forget things because when they have a seizures they can't remember things that have happen or going on at the time of the seizure.Witch makes life very hard for them.
I suppose anyone can have a strange reaction to something but I've never heard of marijuana producing a psychotic reaction. People will have their underlying mood exaggerated by it, so if your son is anxious marijuana might make him more so. Much more so. And that can set off conditioned thinking, so such people should avoid it. But it sounds like something else to me or what you're describing isn't accurate, just an acute thing going on between the two of you.
I do know that one of the side affect of this medication is rash. is this normal to have a rash that is spreading and has lasted for weeks because of this medication?
A few thoughts:
1st, having an initial psychotic episode at 38 is unusual, so it is probably not something squarely in the "psychotic family" of conditions. It is possible (although unlikely) to have an initial manic episode after having previous depressive episodes.
There is information that link paranoid/delusional thinking with menstruation, especially with a history of intense PMS (it is sometimes referred to as premenstrual dysphoric disorder, PMDD).
However everyone can respond differently to medications. I encourage you to discuss your reaction with your presribing physician. It should be between you and your physician as to what medication should replace the Hydrocodone.
Best of luck to you. I hope you'll keep in touch and let us know how you are doing.
ve been taking paxill and lithium for a while now and the both seem to be wearing off. Also take an anti-psychotic medication called perphenazine that was helping me for a while but that also wore off too. The clonezepam still seems to help with my anxiety and I still use the trazadone for my sleep problems. I know it all seems like alot of medication but for a little while it seemed to work.
