Guest guest Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 If I had this reaction I would go back to the doctor asap. This is not a normal reaction to an antidepressant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 HI WILLIAM, MY GP ALSO GAVE ME THIS DRUG THAT I TOOK ONLY A FEW DAYS. HE GAVE IT TO ME FOR PANIC DISORDER. I HAVE NEVER FELT SO ILL. I WAS HAVING PINS AND NEEDLES SENSATIONS ALL OVER ME, VOMITING, UNEASINESS AND MADE MY ANXIETY A WHOLE LOT WORSE. WELL I KNOW THEY SAY YOU NEED TO TAKE IT FOR A WHILE FOR THE SIDE EFFECTS TO SUBSIDE BUT I JUST COULDN'T CONTINUE ON IT. I AM SEEING MY GP TOMORROW SO WILL LET YOU KNOW WHAT HE SAYS. TAKE CARE.

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 , Sorry to hear about this. I am on Citaloprom aka Celexa & Bupropion aka Wellbutrin for depression & have not had any kinda side effects. I know I have abruptly stopped taking one or the other & I feel sick for some time afterwards. I suffer from severe depression, anxiety & panic attacks & if it weren't for my " happy " pills, I'd be a mess. Hope all evens out for you soon!!

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 Well Lindsey, I'm new to this as well. I just took my third dose on Friday. I've done some reading and it seems that the nausea can be a side effect. I've had it a little, but is dissipates within a few hours of taking it. The only other thing that I've noticed is that I seem to have a little problem with mouth ulcers. I'm not sure that it's related, but it's minimal so I'm keeping an open mind. When in doubt, call your rheumatologist. That's what they make the big bucks for. I do get the lethargic feeling as well, but I was having this problem before I started taking the methotrexate. Sorry to hear that you are going through this. I'm currently walking in your shoes. It took me the better part of a year to get the diagnosis. The doctors kept saying that there was nothing wrong with me. It was load off my mind when I first saw my rheumatologist, and was diagnosed. It was also a little unnerving. I'd never heard of this disease before this. I've since learned allot, and now know there is hope. Hang in there. You are not alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 I have some problems with the mouth sores. They have increased my folic acid and that seems to help some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
