Guest guest Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Hi Debbie, I take Doxepin everyday for IBS. That is one of the side affects of it is that it calms IBS. If I miss it I sure know it. I had no idea it was Sinequan though. I had taken it some years ago and almost killed my unborn child. I slept all the time when taking it, but I take the Doxepin with no problems. It also seems to help keep my pain levels down some. I take Trazadone for sleep. I don't take it all the time now. But when I do it puts me out like a light and I get much better & deeper sleep. I don't wake at all in between when I take it. So when I get totally worn down I take it and get some good sleep. It does cause me to have a hangover affect at times. It didn't until I moved and was happy & much calmer then it started it. I went into a flair last week & it lasted through part of Saturday. That is the worst I have been in 3 months now. For the most part I am doing great! If there is anything I can tell you about the Doxepin, or if there are questions I can answer feel free to write me. Warning though I am not on much so it may take a bit for me to answer you back. Chances are that over the years I have taken just about any drug you can mention. The very worst being Nuerontin! Anytime I see that name a BIG RED FLAG goes up! I want to scream at everyone NEVER TAKE NUERONTIN! It has some very horrible side affects. I hope this helps you! God Bless!

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Hi, What can you tell me about taking Neurontin? I take it occasionally when I have problems with Restless Leg Syndrome and my parents take it all the time for the same thing. Dawn Fibro Wolf wrote: Hi Debbie, I take Doxepin everyday for IBS.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 HI Dawn, I haven't taken Neurotin in several years. Rev Theresa talked about Neurontin in her note. It made me very dizzy and disoriented at times. I don't have Restless leg syndrome either but my mom does. Sorry I can't be of more help. hugs, Debbie J > > Hi, > > What can you tell me about taking Neurontin?
