Pharmacist insight
Mental health medications often take 2-4 weeks to reach full therapeutic effect. I counsel patients not to discontinue their medication if they don't see immediate results. Abruptly stopping SSRIs or SNRIs can cause withdrawal symptoms — always taper under medical guidance.

What is REM Sleep Behavior Disorder?
A disorder characterized by episodes of vigorous and often violent motor activity during REM sleep (sleep, REM). The affected individual may inflict self injury or harm others, and is difficult to awaken from this condition. Episodes are usually followed by a vivid recollection of a dream that is consistent with the aggressive behavior. This condition primarily affects adult males.
