I was on it for approximately 2 years. I am perplexed on why it was working so well with no side effects, then after 8 months and I had a right hip replacement and started getting nausea. Had many previous surgeries and never had nausea. Checked everything. Had every scope, scan, every different Doctor. Did stop Trentellix for 2 days with no results. I was living on anti nausea meds. I finally decided to wean myself off of it. Viola! Success!
My depression isn’t sadness or hurt myself, it’s over emotional and sensitive. Not a good look on a 6’1” 210 muscular build man! I have also been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder as well. After about a year and a half I asked a psychiatrist about another option as I had previously tried just about all anti depressants to no avail.
Lexapro worked but I was not able to deal with the sexual side effects.
Doctor started me out with 5mg of Trentellix every other day, with anti nausea meds.
I just started and instantly was sick. Supposed to do this regimen for 2 weeks, increase it to every day for 3 weeks.Then increase to 10 every morning.
I really hope this works this time. Has anyone else tried this for a positive experience
I have taken Trintellix for over 5 years, my doctor started me out on a low dose and quickly moved me to 20mg and I have been on that dose for a long time.
Since almost the first day I started taking this I have been throwing up on a regular basis, at least 2 to 3 days a week if not more.
My doctor added Zofran an anti-nausea medication that I take a couple times a day and I can take them when I start to feel nauseous up to 4 a day, very rarely do I take that many but I can. They sometimes work but not always. The nausea comes on very quick. I throw up and I feel fine.
The real problem is that other than throwing up this is the best medication I have ever been on. I am 54 years old and have been on and off antidepressants over half of my life and Trintellix is the one that works the best. That is the only reason that I throw up all the time. the benefits by far outweigh me throwing up. Although recently I have been having issues with my teeth I believe from all the throwing up.
