Re: anyone ever take Doxepin

[Guest guest]

I took Doxepin for a few days and had numerous side effects -due to my fibro fog

I can not remember what they were though they were listed as side effects I

think. I hated it, but drugs do effect us all differently. I take Cymbalta in

the a.m. for the pain and Trazadone at night to help with sleep, both with no

problems.

anyone ever take Doxepin

Has anyone ever taken the antidepressant Doxepin, aka Sinequan?

I want my doc to give it to me, since it treats itching which I have.

Antidepressants are often given to fibro patients to help us sleep.

Only answer this is you know about the med please.

thanks,

Thanks . I will keep that in mind. I only need the Doxepin

for bedtime use anyway. Periodic itching keeps me awake all night.

So does Cymbalta help with nerve pain? It's not on my insurance so I

won't ask my doctor about it.

Yes,

I have taken the med. It has been a long time ago and I took it for depression

not fibro. It did help with sleep, but not much with depression. So I ended up

changing to a different medication.

HI ,

Thanks for letting me know it does cause drowsiness. That's what I need

it for. It is supposed to stop itching, too. Hopefully my doc will give

it to me.
