I have been taking fluvoxamine for the last 3 months for major depression, pure obsession and social anxiety... It works really well but it takes more time for it work compared with other SSRI I tried earlier
I am taking it from 4 years,now doctor finally stopped it after having last dose of 25mg for 4 months,after 8 days i start getting my symptoms back ,symptoms go worse n doctor start my medication again ...i am taking 100mg now ...Allah help me and all others 😭
I'm on day 2 of luvox 50mg. My side effects include blurry vision and nausea. Im not sure if I'm experiencing a placebo effect but my OCD tendencies seem to have lessened. I did feel hungover when I woke up this morning. I also have issues with binge eating and did notice a loss of appetite which helps me. I just hope the sickly side effects go away. I can see this med actually working compared to others.
Has anyone here had a bad experience with fluvoxamine? I’ve been taking fluvoxamine for almost 6 months and I’m not sure if it’s just mental but I almost feel like I’ve lost feelings, like I don’t feel happy and I don’t feel sad I almost feel like there’s a wall keeping me from having any kind of feelings but I can’t knock it down. Fluvoxamine had helped me with OCD but with a cost I feel. I have stopped taking it for 7 days now and I started getting my feelings back but I also started getting OCD. I’m having trouble figuring out if it was the pills or if it was mental. Have y’all felt any negative sides as well?
Nice! I didnt know Off-label ment Fda doesnt approve of it. I take. clonazepam for panic disorder with agoraphobia but Its always been stated as off label to me by my pharmacist.
Yup! Alot of these medications have broad uses and can overlap on therapy but the FDA has not approved it but doctors have seen in practice it works so it becomes an "off label" use.
Off-label uses for drugs have shown to be effective for COVID-19, such as Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine, and Fluvoxamine. Dr Drew used Flovox for his COVID-19 and had success. There's a small n1 157 study on it.
Great question and good on you for doing your research and asking questions about the medications you take! So Luvox and Viibryd can cause serotonin syndrome. This is the case when you take multiple anti-depressants together. Symptoms include high body temperature, agitation, increased reflexes, tremor, sweating, dilated pupils, and diarrhea. In worse cases seizures. But as long as your doctor is monitoring your doses and starting you off low then you should be fine but just listen to your body and let your doctor know if anything feels out of place.
@@taghreedrulia5168 So the tablets my facility is able to order are regular tablets so they can be cut. The extended release is only available as capsules so those cannot be cut.
Pharmacy Central are they film coated? The ones I have are film coated so im not sure if those are ok to be cut Im trying to taper my son of,he’s on 50mg not for depression or ocd they were prescribed to increase the effect of an antipsychotic and its really messing him up😞
Pharmacy Central I am in nursing school currently and these videos are extremely helpful! I would love to see videos on adenosine, amiodarone, atropine, benazepril, carvedilol, clopidogrel, digoxin, diltiazem, dobutamine, dopamine, enoxaparin, epinephrine, flumazenil, heparin, magnesium sulfate, midazolam, morphin sulfate, nalaxone, nitroglycerin, norepinephrine, potassium chloride, propofol, sodium nitroprusside, tenecteplase, alteplase... just to name a few lol!
This medication may not be right for you. By month 2 if you dont see full positive effects then you need to try another medication. Contact your doctor.

I've been taking Luvox since 2015. This video is spot on!
Thank you for the feedback!
Did you find any changes in your symptoms from the last five years??
Hi can you provide an update on how you’ve been?
Did anyone gain over weight?
Has this medication caused weight gain?
I’m 15 currently on Lovux for my panic attacks & depression like state. . But also for my PTSD symptoms.
Same it helped me with OCD, PTSD and anxiety but my depression still affects me sometimes. Has it helped you any? I’m 14, almost 15.

@@6789uiop Woahm What proof do you have that luvox helps protect against it?
@@jordansmith3721 Proof? lol... anyway; th-cam.com/video/3CfRw0zYzlg/w-d-xo.html
Why did you not mention that it's approved for treating social anxiety?
Are you Fijian my friend? You look like my homie Isaac.
Great video is this medication commonly taken with buspar? I have anxiety about taking new medications this is helpful thank you!
It can, although I'm not sure I've ever seen it in practice.
Can Luvox be taken in conjunction with the newer drug Viibryd? If so, are there any concerns or interactions that should be considered? - Much Thanks!

Hello
Is it ok to cut the Luvox table to reduce the dosage?
There isn’t really enough information online or on TH-cam about Luvox!
If its an extended release tablet you cannot cut it. But if it's a standard release tablet you can cut it.

Hi
Its not extended release,I don’t think there is an extended release luvox🤔
The kind I have is film coated
@@taghreedrulia5168 So the tablets my facility is able to order are regular tablets so they can be cut. The extended release is only available as capsules so those cannot be cut.
Pharmacy Central are they film coated?

@@taghreedrulia5168 At this point I would refer you to the doctors office because I can't see what you see so its difficult for me to advise you.
How does it affect periods exactly?
Can you please do cymbalta? And does cymbalta have a lot of weight gain?
We have a cymbalta video! Its under Duloxetine, the generic name!
Does it help with pain?
What should I due if I have high heart rate while taking luvox
Great videos! Will you be making cardiac medication videos?
We noticed people weren't really watching the cardiac videos we've made. Give us a few names, we'll do them!

@@rileystone6285 I gotta also add Suboxone in that list, Considering the opiate problem today
Good idea! Surprised we havn't done that one already! Suboxone is next!
Bingo got it!
Hello , im taking luvox since 2 month , but the OCD is still exist ,actually some time I sense that its increasing , what could be the problem ?
This medication may not be right for you. By month 2 if you dont see full positive effects then you need to try another medication. Contact your doctor.
Also he gave me fluoxetine for a long period before that,and didnt work . I have an appoitment to my doctor next week.
@@hf9053 Thats great, go over all this with your doctor. you may need combo therapy.
Yes i will discus all the option with my doctor, but what do you mean by combo thearpy ?
