All SSRIs, All SNRIs, Remeron, Many TCAs, MAOI Parnate - all now cause problems. Nausea, GERD. Constipation biggest problem: Remeron, Effexor, and Neurontin absolute worse for this. Constipation ends up seeming to increase the GERD. Nothing including Zoloft or Prozac has actually given me diarrhea.
First couple days, I thought Paxil CR (not regular) was miracle, as no constipation. VERY normal. Now, it looks like it will likely be same as regular Paxil in this regard.
I hear most GI complaints being like yours.
Maybe I am in minority, or just not many talk about the "opposite" response.I am now forced as result of above to have ECTS end of April - they were to be end of March, but there was a "clerical" error. Unbelieveable! This was ONLY reason I had to start the Paxil CR.
I have HAD IT with this GI nonsense!I plan to go ADs-free for life & do maintenance ECT. I have always prior (2 full courses) had 100% remission, with absolutely no headaches; no memory loss. Done Bilaterally. Key is finding a good practiontioner, IMO.
Thank you both for your replies.
