quinetine

[anx mum]

My doctor has started me on a new drug quinetine abit worried as been on it before and think it made me feel dizzy. Has anyone had good experiences on it?

[nomorepanic]

Is that the correct spelling of it?

yeah sorry thats the one? Sorry about spelling god its making me feel sick and v dizzy how have u been on it?

[AuntieMoosie]

What dose are you on please Bev??

I take 100mgs, slow release at night.

It can make you feel a little strange at first, I felt a little "spaced out" for a few days but that soon passed hun, and now I don't even know that I'm on it.

I'd give it a good try, let yourself get used to it and see how you go, I know that it does help me with my anxiety so it's well worth trying with it hun :hugs:

On 50mg then he wants me to go up to 100mg than after 5 days 150mg than after another 5 days 200mg ive been on it before made me feel really strange sweating/felt sick and really dizzy felt wide awake too how long do they take to work?

[AuntieMoosie]

It didn't take too long for it to start working for me hun.

All of those side effects should disappear after a few days really.

Sometimes it's hard to know whether what we're feeling is side effects or anxiety, cos that too, can give you all of those symptoms.

If you can hun, I'd recommend giving them a good few weeks and then see how you feel with them, keep in close contact with your doctor so that they can see how your going with them.

I hope that you find that they help you Bev :hugs:
