@sls87113 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect, a place to give support. You have support and information to share with peers.

You have a friend that has had amazing results from Trintellix for her depression.

You have taken Cenexa for some time. Is this to treat depression? You also take Gabapentin for restless leg syndrome. You are wondering if Trintellix affects restless leg syndrome.

May I ask how Celexa has been working for you?

Hi Erika, I have been taking 10 mg of Celexa plus 1 mg of Clonazepam to help with anxiety since 2010. I could never take more than 10 mg because it exacerbated my restless leg syndrome which is very severe. I suffered from spinal stenosis also causing me great pain in my neck area and was given Gabapentin 900 mg per day. I had an ablation procedure finally which eliminated my pain but I continue to take the Gabapentin once I realized it worked for restless leg syndrome and my severe symptoms return if I stop it. This pandemic has caused my chronic depression to ramp up. I tried to go up to 20 mg of Celexa but my legs flared up. So I cut back to 15 mg which I can tolerate and has helped but I battle keeping the sadness at bay. That is why my friend with chronic depression recommended I try Trintellix also. I am very reluctant to tamper with my Celexa because I have suffered so much my whole life with restless legs. My doctor is willing to work with me on the antidepressant but will not increase my Gabapentin which I don’t want to do either. So that prompted my question regarding Trintellix and restless legs. Thanks so much for your inquiry.
