Sorry I ment 200 mg not 20.

Hi beechroft,

There's a lot of scary side effects with all drugs, and that doesn't mean you will get them.

I understand your worried about your throat, but just keep an eye on it, if it does swell, phone docs etc.

Sudden death, well we sometimes worry about that, but its really rare, allow your throat to heal, try and look at that area with your mind and relax around it. I use an image of relaxation like a flower opening or a still pool.

These symptoms will pass, if you allow yourself.

wishing you well

Hello, i take 150mg at night. Have for 15 years! Did not have any side effects after trying others that did. I find it so scary trying new tablets myself. Now trying escetalopram as well but that s not worked for me. Hope you settle down with it. X
