Not for me | Did calm down my mind first few hrs but wide awake 1.am now1/4 to 4am felt sick legs wobbly bladderdecrease in frequency out put I don't like it | F | 64 | 1 days 1/2 10mg | 3/2/2015 | 4 | Fibromyalgia | Dry mouth. Endep makes the pain associated with fibromyalgia tolerable! Fatigue was my biggest problem. Have been on 10mg was working fantastic until recently. Now I'm on 2 x. 10mg a night using up my old tablets than start on 25mg. Has made a huge difference! Can get to sleep, stay asleep & wake up feeling like I have slept! There is no drowsiness the next day! | F | 25 | 2 days 20mg | 2/11/2014 | 4 | Depression | Dry mouth | The best anti depressant I’ve ever taken and I have been on anti depressants since I was 27. SSRI’s only caused insomnia and loss of libido. I would never touch SSRI’s. Horrible. I gave Endep a score of 4 because the only side effect was an extremely dry mouth. It also made me sleep as soon as hit the pillow. No problems with sex drive or orgasms. | F | 61 | 2 days 150 1X day | 9/6/2020 | 1 | leg pain | severe dizzyness, dry mouth, diaahrrea | M | 79 | 2 days 50 1X day | 11/14/2014 | 1 | Depression, anxiety, insomnia | Fatigue Inability to wake up Foggy head Feel like shit all around | Do not take this drug. It will mess with your head in a major way. I am quitting it after only two days because it is AWFUL. | F | 28 | 2 days 25mg | 7/29/2015 | 2 | Transformed Migraine | Drowsiness that continues into the next day and this is with only taking half a tablet (12.5mg) which my GP said to start with but even with this dosage the drowsy/groggy feeling is unpleasant. | I have been on this for 5 days with no improvements so far for my condition of chronic daily headache (transformed migraine) and unrefreshing sleep/apathy (mild depression). Will persist for a bit longer and hopethe side effecst subsides and there will be improvement | M | 52 | 5 days 12.5 1X day | 12/12/2012 | 3 | Recurring headaches | Very drowsy about 30 minutes after taking 2 x 10mg tablets. Sleep well. Feel lightheaded during the day but headaches started to improve (still there, but less severe) from day 5. | M | 30 | 6 days 10mg x 2 1X day | 1/28/2015 | 3 | Chronic back pain & insomnia | Brain fog, lethargy and mild anxiety | Dr recommend Endep at 10mg once daily to (1) help with managing neuropathic pain from chronic back problems and associated rehab activity, and (2) for long term insomnia from back pain. Found the medication effective in reducing severity of nerve pain and helped with getting to sleep and duration of sleep. However, the day after effects are significant. Low mood, anxiety and bouts of extreme tiredness have become daily issues. Hoping these reduce as I need to continue taking this medication while I go through intensive rehabilitation for my back. | M | 48 | 7 days 10MG 1X day | 10/25/2020 | 5 | I'm prescribed to endep for sleep | Dry mouth during the night and the next morning. I became extra tired during the day and found my self on and off napping which I don't normally do every day if I get a chance. I used to take seroquel do getting used to this is a lot easier so far. I also have a massive apetite after taking these approx 3 hrs before bed (if I hadn't accidentally fallen asleep in the mean time) I don't usually eat a lot because I suffer with heartburn so bad I rarely eat so I'm eating like I did on seroquel so I'm imagining I may gain weight. Overall I've got to remember my bodies still adjusting..I suffer from I.B.S and have noticed change in the pain I usually endure all morning everyday before being prescribed to endep. I'm finally getting a full nights sleep without waking up 2-3 with severe anxiety so endep with my Valium (25mg a day) has had a significant effect. | F | 26 | 10 days 20mg | 11/25/2014 | 1 | insomnia and depression | Dry mouth, waking during night, excess body heat, drowsy next day, no motivation, weight gain, bad reflux and heart burn, -going off it asap | F | 49 | 2 weeks 75mg | 5/21/2013 | 4 | Nerve pain (Mild CRPS) | Drowsy, dry mouth, vivid dreams (the day time drowsiness and dry mouth stopped after the first 5 days). Also makes you sleep very easily at night. | F | 33 | 3 weeks 25mg | 3/17/2013 | 4 | nerve pain due to adenomyosis | dry mouth, sleep about 2 hours after dose | it helped turn my agony to soreness. It hasn't cured my condition but it sure makes the pain more bearable. | F | 38 | 1 months 10mg 1X day | 9/24/2011 | 2 | anxiety, insomnia | From the git go, this product 'zonked' me out big time, to the point I stopped taking it after only 1 month. I had been taking Zoloft (which worked great), but was prescribed Endep instead when I developed side effects (muscle twitches) after a few months. My doctor suggested I take half a tablet of Endep every night, but then the dosage was too low and had no effect. I suppose the full 25mg dose may have worked, but I was so doped up I felt out of it anyway so I can't really say if it was effective or not. I don't recommend this product. | M | 58 | 1 months 25mg 1X day | 3/4/2011 | 5 | Migraines and neck and back pain | Dry mouth | I have found endep 10mg a life saver. No more migraines and neck pain. Back pain reduced. | F | 69 | 2 months 10mg 1X day | 11/8/2020 | 4 | Fibromyalgia | mind fog in morning, had to increase dose as my body got used to it. Did have some dry mouth and diarhea too. | Asleep usually within an hour of taking it. And I usually stay asleep now all through the night. Wake up without drowsiness but in a bit of a mind fog and babbling words. It has helped with the pain but had to increase from 10/20mg. | F | 37 | 2 months 30 | 6/19/2016 | 4 | Lacking quality sleep,only 4hr/h/n | None | Take one tablet 3 or 4 nights a week, for 7 hrs+ sleep a night. Wake up feeling good for work. | M | 57 | 3 months 10mg 1X AN | 12/25/2016 |
