Experiences with

Fluvoxamine

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs): These medications, such as fluoxetine (Prozac), sertraline (Zoloft), and fluvoxamine (Luvox), are often the first-line treatment for OCD.

Has anyone taken this drug? will it cause food to taste terrible? I have been taking it for over 2 months now. Everything I eat tastes gross. I’ve lost 10 pounds and that’s not something that happens to me! 😂

I had been taking fluvoxamine 150 mg for 6 long years after which i started to taper it and now the condition is going worse. No withdrawal symptoms but the horrifying RELAPSE.

Citalopram or Fluvoxamine. For social anxiety? I am on Lexapro 20mg and Wellbutrin 300mg for along time. More that 10years and My body is telling me a need a change and it is not working as much now. Or if anyone else has social anxiety and what meds do you take? Thanks.

Hi everyone I have been suffering from moderate/mild contamination OCD for almost a decade. I am very particular about cleanliness, take a long time to clean my room and have a hard time in public using washrooms. I have tried therapy but it hasnt helped much. I tend to have ruminating thoughts when

I would be interested to know if anyone is on anti anxiety medication ( buspirone) and/or anti depressants ( fluvoxamine) and if these medications suppress the production of natural cortisol?

My doctor prescribed Cymbalta 60 mg and Fluvoxamine 100mg I was taking 50mg but he up the dosage which is giving me a lot of side effects. I hate getting up in the mornings. When I was in the Navy in 1972 I lost three fingers in my right hand I would trade my hand not to suffer from this illness.

Other SSRIs - fluvoxamine and paroxwtine - seems like I have tolerance to them too, because the are don't work, then anafranil - again, doesn't work. My psychiatryst tryed to increase a dose, to do an augmentation but it doesn't work.

I am on fluvoxamine and resperidone but they do very little effect on me.

There are three which are shown to be more sympathetic with afib, sertraline, Fluvoxamine and paroxetine. The latter is shown to be the one more gentle on the heart. Can anyone share there experience as I feel my PAF is getting more frequent. . My Chads is 0 at the moment so not on any other meds.

I have pure obsessional OCD and have been on Fluvoxamine for a couple years now. I've found it pretty effective overall.

Over the past couple of months my mental health had been improving and my psychiatrist has been reducing the dose of my antidepressant (fluvoxamine). About a week ago, I started on the lowest dose in a long time and since then, I've noticed that I'm constantly on edge.

I've been on Fluvoxamine for a couple years now and that has helped extremely well. It doesn't always stop intrusive thoughts, but it has helped me to deal with them and not obsess over them when they arise.

I found a great therapist, psychiatrist, changed my regular physician and started taking fluvoxamine to treat my OCD as I was preparing for ERP. Everyone who told me to take meds was 100% right. It took some time adjusting, but I was so calm, happy and hopeful.

Many thanks for all your replies I am aware that depressants can lose their effectiveness over years I was on Fluoxetine for many years and they began to lose their effectiveness and switched to Fluvoxamine..which after several months ot increasing of the dose didn`t work at all..I am now about to try

I was recently prescribed fluvoxamine. Has anyone tried it? What are your experiences?

I've been on Luvox for a week (25mg) and I don't know if it's normal, but I kinda feel physically unwell on it? I'm aware that there are side effects to antidepressants, but it's kinda freaking me out. I feel nauseous and light-headed (I need to either sit or just lie down before the feeling passes).
