    Re: Not working any more?

    Hi Lynn

    I don't want to worry you but the BMJ reckon that reboxetine is useless for depression (no better than placebo) and potentially harmful.

    I just want you to be aware of the facts and take care.

    Here's a Guardian article on the subject (AFAIK this newspaper isn't known for scaremongering).

    Re: Not working any more?

    Hi Mark, thanks for replying.

    Hmm, doesn't sound very good does it. Unless I've overlooked it, it doesn't say in what way it could be harmful. I suppose if you have major depression and are suicidal, then maybe it could push you over the edge, but I don't know.

    I've been trying to find some info on this drug, but there doesn't seem to be much about. All I do know is side effects can make you irritable, sweaty, tired because of lack of sleep (hate that one in particular, I can count on the fingers of one hand how many unbroken nights sleep I've had whilst on Duloxetine).

    Due to start Reboxetine on Wednesday. Will write then.

    Lynn.

    Hi Willow,

    I Googled Reboxetine as well. mainly because when i saw your post I thought I had never heard of the drug. So out of interest I thought I would have a look. I came up with same conclusion as Mark 13. I does not appear to work

    Hi SarahH, I'm not holding out much hope for this, but I'll give it go and see what, if anything happens. I'm not looking forward to it mainly because as you say, it doesn't seem very good and also what little info I have found, the insomnia side effect sounds bad, I wasn't sleeping very well on Duloxetine! Still, as I said, I'll try it. Day one is tomorrow so keep your fingers crossed for me!

    Will update in a few days, it might help anyone else who finds themselves with this drug.

    Lynn.

    Re: Not working any more?

    Hi Sarah, not to worry I can't find one of my own posts I made the other day. It's here...somewhere!

    I'll start a new thread under Duloxetine because I can't see one for Reboxetine. If it helps people, then that'll be good.

    Take care.

    Lynn.
