DESVENLAFAXINE vs PAROXETINE

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

I cannot find anything about mechanism pointing towards the uniqueness of duloxetine over venlafaxine or desvenlafaxine.

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

Yes, some individuals will be on them for life, not have issues and good success on them. Some will struggle hard and not be able to get off of them or find one that works well for them. Some will get their bodies destroyed and have the hardest fight of their life to get off these medications. I am

I've read so many sad/bad stories about Paxil/Paroxetine while I was still on it, that I decided I'll write my own once I'm off meds, so that people who are afraid of Paxil after reading all the spooks and scares, would see success stories too. I had major panic attacks and severe anxiety. Anxiety h

How come a psychiatrist prescribes an antidepressant and tells the patient to not look at the side effects? He also assured that there were no effects on sexual function despite the fact that paroxetine is used to treat premature ejaculation in several studies. After deciding to stop paroxetine (due

I just saw a post on instagram and people were saying that brain zaps were genuinely the worst experience of their life, and someone even went to the ER because of it. I’m on day 3 of Paroxetine and I don’t even want to continue (obviously know I can’t just quit now) because of these side effects. I

Hey, looking for a place to vent a little and maybe get some validation. I'm so, so mad and now even more scared as it seems I'm getting no medical help on this. I've stopped Paxil around Christmas. Obviously, I started getting all the fun side effects such as insomnia, nausea and most of all the br

This may seem crazy. But when i was 20ish i was prescribed Deroxat (Paroxetine) for mild depression an social anxiety It worked right from day one, i was numb as wood, that sounds odd but for the first time i didn't have negative feeling (nor good) and that was sooo fucking relaxing, not worrying a

Hi Reddit! I just wanted to say that hope is out there. I'm using a throw-away for obvious reasons. Here is my story. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I had been sinking into depression wors

Hello everybody, I hope all of you are doing okay. So I went on a trip 5 days ago, while everything was on point, I forgot the most important thing to bring with me, I thought it was already in the luggage so I have not bothered checking twice. I take Paroxetine 40mg, and the withdrawals are mild, n
