DULOXETINE vs OXCARBAZEPINE

I am a 28 year old man and I've just realized that nothing interests me. I believe that it might be connected to depression as I am on medication for depression and anxiety (duloxetine) I am not really sad or anything. I am just very neutral. Things that used to interest, excite me and make me happ

I have been recovering from over a decade of major depressive disorder and recently diagnosed bipolar II. I’m seeing light at the end of the tunnel with Lamotrigine and lifestyle changes, and after several mental health evaluations, my psychiatrist gave me the best news ever; I can stop taking antid

Hi, just wondering if this is a common experience: So i've been taking agomelatine 50mg for about 5 months and duloxetine 60mg for 3 months now for severe depression and anxiety. The antidepressants have been working just as intended in the sense that most of the mental agony has gone, but there's

I ( M23) have been taking duloxetine 60 mg for 2 years now. While it has helped tremendously with my anxiety/depression/DPDR, it did cause sexual side effects for me. (I also take lamotrigine, but that is unlikely to cause effects like this) For me, these sides were very annoying; my main problem wa

Entry time 8:55am Before I went to sleep last night, I had nurses come 2 times, around 9:30pm and then at 10:40pm asking if I wanted to take some anxiety medication to help me sleep better. I refused both times as it wasn't initially prescribed, and in general I don't have a problem sleeping. My al

UHC is canceling coverage of my medication: Lamotrigine, Atomoxetine, and Duloxetine. Starts in January. Im barely getting by as it is. I need to find new insurance asap (Im in the USA). Its no wonder they were targeted. I just learned that they deny the most coverage of any US health insurer. Wtf a

Since the late of 2019 year, till now I've tried: 1- Escitalopram "Lexapro" (tried Atomoxetine "Strattera" with it, then stopped it due to its bad effects) (tried Risperidone "Rispardal" then stopped it, it hasn't only bad effects, but also highly increased prolactin) 2- Fluoxetine "Prozac" 3- Bupro

You know how a lot of sources say working towards a goal and then achieving it gives a sense of reward via dopamine? This week I got a pay rise, achieved a fitness goal I've been working towards for months and even got asked out on a date by someone quite attractive. But I feel absolutely nothing.

Hey all, I’ve been on this sub for a while now and I’ve noticed that almost every mention of Keppra is a negative one. However, my experience with the drug has been very good and I’d like to share it. I was diagnosed with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy fifteen years ago. For the first few years I was o

All I see, are horrible stories about Keppra — I’m not sure if I’ve seen or heard from anyone with a positive experience. Is there any body out there that likes it?!? Tell me about it, please? I think I’m going on it soon…. I’ve (42m w/ TLE) just recently switched from carbamazepine to oxcarbazepin

Hello. I just wanted to share my experience with overcoming grand mal seizures. As soon as I graduated from High School, I started having seizures when I was 19 years old.

Hello fellow pharmacists! Due to USP <800>, we have to crush hazardous meds (warfarin, finasteride, oxcarbazepine, etc.) that are administered via feeding tube in the chemo hood. However, no one seems to know what BUD to give to the final product. The BUD I’ve seen ranges anywhere from 30 days
