Saphris Reviews

Updated

My doc started me on Saphris to augment Wellbutrin and Brintellix for my depression. The first night taking it, I fell asleep really quickly. I woke up early but was nauseated all day. Thank goodness, it was a Sunday because I was useless for most of the day. Took it Sunday night, slept well enough but had crazy dreams. I felt okay in the AM then my head started pounding and I felt like my head was "swimming" all day. Now I am so nauseated again that I am in bed at 7:30pm. I know it takes some time for your body to get used to a new med. Tonight will only be my 3rd dose of 5mg, I don't know if it's too soon to throw in the towel but I can't be sick like this for days or weeks. Sorry I'm so long winded. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hello, Jenn! How are you? Has there been any change?

Those can be typical side effects, as reported by the FDA, you may also experience dizziness, headache and mood swings.

However, given the severity, it could mean that this isn't the right medication for you and you should check in with our doctor.

Verwon,

Thank you for your response! No improvement, I don't think Saphris is the med for me.
