DESVENLAFAXINE vs Levomilnacipran

I’ve been doing some reading about the 2 available forms of desvenlafaxine, but I think I’ve confused myself at this point. Other than the salt form, is there any major difference between the two? When looking at FDA orange book online, Desvenlafaxine ER succinate has an AB rating to Desvenlafaxine

I have been dealing with mysterious tachycardia and heart palpitations for almost a decade. I have no genetic or lifestyle flags for heart issues, and basically have just been told I should try more cardio and cut out the caffeine. For reference, my usual resting heart rate hangs around 95-105bpm. T

EDIT: Thank you so much to everyone who replied to this post I really appreciate all the inputs, you guys are seriously more helpful then some doctors I have seen. I've got a lot more to think about in terms of what my issues could be caused by including POTS which I think is a real possibility, ADH

About a month ago I (19F) was prescribed Buspirone for anxiety and Desvenlafaxine for depression. These medications were chosen after I took a Genesight test and the results showed them to be among the best options. The person that prescribed them was not my usual consultant, but was the person I wa

I am a pharmacy technician with over 20 years of experience across just about every faction of pharmacy besides Big Pharma/R&D. I currently have a full time job in RX finance, and an evening gig in LTC data entry. The other day at my part time shop, I literally happened upon a script by chance

I (29F) learned in another Reddit thread that Miralax is derived from polyethylene glycol, a petroleum-based compound, derived from petroleum byproducts. This information obviously freaks me out. All of my medications have constipation/hard bowel movements as a side effect (Desvenlafaxine, clonidin

I took a Genetic Test called Genesight and it listed the following medicines to use as directed (highlighted in green) but I don't think any of them are for OCD. Does anyone have experience taking any of these medicines specifically for OCD? * bupropion (Wellbutrin®) * desipramine (Norpramin®) * des

I wanted to share my experience with Viibryd thus far, since when I first starting looking into it after being prescribed it, I mostly found people saying how they had a bad time on it. Quick background, this is the 6th antidepressant I've tried. Before Viibryd, I was on citalopram for 8 years and

I'm really struggling with my depression post-surgery. I think a big part of the problem may be my anti-depressant. I have had great success with Fetzima/levomilnacipran, a little-used antidepressant that unfortunately, ONLY comes in an extended release version. I think that, with my rny and shorte

Apologies for the wall of text - I've done my best to condense 15 years of crap into a reasonably sized post. ​ I have a depressive disorder. This much is obvious. I've been on antidepressants for 15 years. I've tried 6 of them in total (fluoxetine, sertraline, trazodone, bupropion, vilaz

Hello, I'm am getting off Wellbutrin, and want to research an alternative drug to ask my DOC about. This is for MDD, and this is what I found: Lexapro - escitalopram (SSRI, seems fine, side effects don't sound good.) Venlafaxine-Effexor (SNRI, similar to Wellbutrin, standard SNRI side effects)) Dul
