Anyone on Lofepramine?

[Chloefer]

Hi, I have been put on lofepramine and I keep getting stomach cramps, it doesn't say anything in the leaflet about stomach cramps but has anyone else had this? Also I have been sweating A LOT more than normal, is this normal or is this something I should mention. It does say sweating is a symptom so thought I'd ask.

I was put on that medication for my depression about four years ago and I had horrendous stomach pain, however, that may have been because it boosted my appetite and made me eat CONSTANTLY... I wasn;t eating properly and because I suddenly started inhaling food as the Lofrepramine had made me feel like I needed it, that might have been the reason for the pain. I asked my doctor about it and he said it was probably due to eating more- has it made you do the same?

Its had the opposite effect on me, so it could be from lack of food. My appetite has completely gone so it could be due to that which I hadn't considered. Thanks for replying
