Antidepressants that are okay with NASH

I've had many over the years. Not been on any for at least 3 years now. Thinking might need another. I dont want to cook, or do anything. I sit or lie around, not caring about a thing. And then I get angry with my self. I know part of it is my home life, but I cant change that.

I've been on Cymbalta and Prozac the longest. Theyve tried others with no change. The last doctor I had was trying to help and find something liver compatible. Any ideas?

Hi: I've been on Cymbalta for a year. I can't say it did the trick because I don't feel that well it seems to help with anxiety. My doctor is looking for an additional med to add to the Cymbalta but no luck so far. There's a new drug, Rexulti, my doctor gave me samples and in about three weeks for one or two days I felt GOOD. But I decided not to continue because of annoying side effects...restlessness and super appetite. I mean I couldn't stop eating!

Getting back to Cymbalta, I don't think it has had an adverse effect on my liver. Good Luck.

I've been on buproprion and buspiron. that I have tolerated well. I've had depression for years and this has been the best combination . I feel quite normal most days while still having NASH. Tiredness has not been great but better.

Moonsta, sorry I said the wrong med as the second. It's Buproprion and Duloxatine. I am taking 450mg of Buproprion and 60mg of Duloxitine. Just for your info in my situation I have low thyroid, NASH, complicated with a binge eating disorder. I hope all is going well with you and you see improvements. Blessings to you
