Hi @heidi1346 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. It sounds like Trintellix (vortioxetine) is causing several digestive related issues for you, including nausea, upset stomach and severe diarrhea. Nausea is the most common side effect of this drug. I'd like to bring @rossjt @marjou @trip17 @elwooodsdad @petangelkat1 @jeanmnyc @marazion @alamogal635 and @kelster69 into this discussion so they can share their experiences with you.

Heidi, have you discussed the side effects you're experiencing with your doctor? How long have you been taking Trintellix? What dosage?

I have the nausea and upset stomach at 2.5 mg.

I have now been on Trintellix for four weeks and the nausea is not going away. I have it every morning and due to working from home and off work for the holidays I can rest it off. However I cannot continue to function like this daily. I am going to discuss alternate choices or go back to Celexa when I see my doctor in New Year
