My doctor wanted to add Rexulti because Lexapro was ineffective. I was hesitant because of the Rexulti side effects. I opted to try the genetic test and now I'm on a different antidepressant which seems to be working. Not everyone responds the same to medications.

I’m was taking .05, then 1mg, now 2mg Rexulti. Since the last increase I’m having nightmares and lots of dizziness. I thought I was going to have to go to the ER last night. It was really bad. Luckily I was able to talk with a friend and calm down so I didn’t have to go that route. Have you experienced anything like this? I’m still somewhat new with Rexulti and I’m waiting to hear back from my psychiatrist. Thank you for any information

I’m fairly new to Rexulti but I’m taking 2mg up from 1mg and I’m having terrible nightmares and lots of dizziness. Waiting for my psychiatrist to call me back today. Felt like I was going to have to go to the ER last night but was able to talk with a friend and it helped calm me down.

I am not on Rexulti. I take Remeron. I hope you were able to speak with your doctor. I am glad you had a friend to talk to. I wish you well.
