You need to call your pdoc. Stopping the med may stop the problem or you may need an additional med for a while. But you'll need to replace the med that caused the problem so you definitely need help from your pdoc.

Well what you're describing sounded like it. When I had it my eyes would drift upward and I couldn't stop it! They called it ocular dystonia

I absolutely agree with this.

It's very important to let your pdoc know what's happening.

Please take care.
