Depakote?
I'm currently on
Pristiq
, Wellbutrin and trazodone. My MH provider is considering Depakote. I've never taken a mood stabilizer as I'm not the bipolar type. Any words out there about Depakote?

I can’t sleep anymore
I’m also on Xanax XR,
Pristiq
, and Doxepin. The Doxepin I take before bed to help with sleep. I just want someone to be honest with me. I’m very resistant to change and I live my life in a very narrow comfort zone. And I always feel horrible in the morning with a lot of fear and anxiety.

Learned LDL Cholesterol is Elevated to 151 (USA) or 1.7 in Europe & Prescribed Statin Drug Crestor 5mg!
I've been on depression meds for 2 decades and just am changing from
Pristiq
to Trintelix, so if I decide to take the statin, I need to wait at least a couple weeks to start the ROSUVASTATIN (CRESTOR) 5mg. I am hesitant about taking a new drug!

Pristiq and nausea
Is anyone on
pristiq
? If so, did you get nausea and how long did it last? I'm on 4 weeks now and I usually always feel nauseated all day long.

Pristiq
Ever since I've been on effexor ( about 2 months) then switched to
pristiq
( 2 weeks now) I feel like I have a gross vomit feeling inside me. I'm so sick of feeling like shit and now I feel like a different kind of shit!

Burning hands, arms, sensitive to touch
On new med,
Pristiq
. Took the Genesite test - and was advised to take this. I think I have a reaction to the coating and fillers in pills like the magnesium sterate. If I have this in the first 4 ingredients I have horrible side effects. If it is a tablet or capsule I am better.

Newbie here looking for reassurance.
I’ve been on
pristiq
now successfully for a few years however it’s zapped my libido plus I’m having some break through anxiety from time to time. Now I am on day 4 of Wellbutrin 100mg in addition to my 100mg
Pristiq
and am wondering if anyone has had both of these and been successful?

Switch from Celexa (citalopram- SSRI) to Pristiq (desvenlafaxine- SSNRI)
Over the course of the past week I have been taking a half dose of my usual Celexa and a half dose of
Pristiq
to gradually switch over from the old to the new med.

Efexor to Pristiq
Pumpkin, the doctor switched me to
Pristiq
about five years ago. The transition was great. He gradually moved be over. He lowered Efexor gradually and started me on
Pristiq
. I had no problems at all. I do know from experience that skipping doses of
Pristiq
will cause brain shivers.

Effexor to pristiq switch
Has anyone switched from effexor to
pristiq
? I've been on such a long journey to feel relief from constant anxiety and so far nothing works. I was recently on 175mg effexor and my Dr switched me to 50mg
pristiq
. She had me just completely switch, no weaning. I've taken it for about 4 days now.
