Talk to Psychiatry on Stopped Using Brintellix
Asking For Self, Female 26, Italy
my doctor gave me brintellix as I was losing my focus and was anxious. I started on 25th May 2025 with 5 mg and then to 10 mg after 3 4 days. I have been taking the medicine daily. But now recently I have moved to a new country. With the busy schedule, I missed it someday and now haven't taken it since 2-3 weeks. Suddenly I am feeling like I have lost the focus and feeling anxious. What should I do? should I start taking it again?

Thank you for reaching out with your question. I understand your concern. To help you with treatment a detailed assessment is essential. I recommend you to book an online appointment for further assistance.
It is best not to restart Brintellix on your own after such a long gap. Please see a doctor in your new country—they will guide you on restarting safely or adjusting your treatment. The symptoms you are feeling are common after stopping it suddenly and can be managed. Help is available . You can book an online consultation.
