Just some extra info, taking a xanax or a clonazepam during the anxiety attack does absolutely nothing to stop the shaking, jerky movements. So it must be originating from a part of the brain that benzos have no effect on

Hi, sorry for your troubles with this medication, I had a similar experience with another medication, it worked well but the aftermath was awful, I went from feeling relaxed and comfortable and later on I was shaking and anxious. I did some research and found that it contained codeine, a pain medication. I think that your sleep meds are not good for you and although I am not a medical professional your symptoms are indicative of a type of reaction that you shouldn’t have. I would suggest that you speak with your doctor and let them know what you’re experiencing, they can give you something else to use for a sleeping aid. Also when you’re taking benzodiazepines they can interfere with other things you take, I take them too and I know from experience that they can sometimes change the effects of other medications, I hope that you find a good solution for your problem.

@freidbs Here is a reference to drugs.com about the medications https://www.drugs.com/dayvigo.html

As @frouke mentioned, I would suggest contacting the prescribing doctor to let them know about the anxiety. Perhaps there is another medication you are taking, that is causing a bad side effect because you take them both. It doesn't matter if those meds are taken different times. They just might not be a good combination.

If your medications are filled by the same pharmacy, you could ask the pharmacist if there is any "red flag" warning that comes up for interactions for Davigo. Is this possible?

I never heard of this medication before so I looked into it, the side effects were pretty bad, it’s no wonder that you’re experiencing a tough aftermath. I realize that many medications have some side affects but this one is not a good choice to be honest, I have a habit of researching the meds that I’m prescribed, it’s not always a good practice but I have spared myself a few bad drugs over the years for doing this.

@frouke -You are VERY wise to do that. I do as well and many times have upset the physician taking care of me. I believe there should be a pharmacist assigned to every office and when a patient is place on a new medication that Pharmacist should do a medication review before the patient even leaves the office. Drs will poly-Pharm patients to death and treat side effects with additional medications and before you know it you are taking tons of meds and no wonder you have reactions to all of them. CMS States that patients - mainly geriatric - should be on no more than 9 medications!
