Q’s before taking psychological medications

  1. What are the side-effects of this medication? (don’t be satisfied with 3 or 4)
  2. What are the long term effects (nowadays psychological tests are only following patients for 6-8 weeks)?
  3. Remind the doctor about any strong history of the past when symptoms began (like relative’s death, rape etc.). These occurrences generally alter all testing.
