| 1 | for hives | dizziness me feel weird | i want to know wy my dermotoligist gave me a anti-depressant drug | F | 36 | | 2/13/2005 | 5 | CHRONIC HIVES | DROWSINESS WASN'T A PROBLEM SINCE I TAKE IT AT NIGHT-IT IMPROVED MY SLEEP ALOT. MAYBE SOME BLURRINESS OF VISION. | THE ALLERGIST HAD ME ON 6 PRESCRIPTION ANTIHISTAMINES AT THE SAME TIME TRYING TO GET IMPROVEMENT BUT IT WASN'T UNTIL THE DERMATOLOGIST PUT ME ON DOXEPIN THAT THEY WENT AWAY. | F | 45 | 2 years | 1/9/2005 | 5 | Chronic Uticaria (hives) | This medicine made me sleepy, but I took it at night before bed and felt rested in the morning. I also experienced mild joint pain, espcially in my hands and knees. | Doxepin began to clear my hives the day after my first dose. It is the only medicine I've taken that has given me relief from my hives. | F | 25 | 2 weeks | 10/13/2004 | 3 | control migraines(also other meds) | severe abdominal pain, bloating, gas, cramps, weight gain after my doctor increased my dosage from 100mg per night to 150mg per night. so much epigastric discomfort could not stand to take the med although it did help my migraines combined with other meds. | my neurologist put me on doxepin as well as several other drugs in combination to treat my severe migraines. when I was still having migraines my m.d. increased me to 150mg a day from 100mg/day, my migraines did get better for a time but the severe epigastric discomfort(bloating, cramping, gas, weight gain, constipation) I had to stop taking the med for a few days and start back at 50mg for few days then to 100mg as day, but NEVER again will I take 150mg/day, that was too much for me!! | F | 29 | 30 days | 9/9/2004 | 3 | dermatitis of scalp | I have been using doxepin for about 2 months and at first it did not do anything for my chronic scalp dermatitis. I do not know where this came from since I know of no one in my family who has had this. It is chronic and has been with me for a year and one half and I hate it!!!!! I would rather have the rosacea that came out of no where in my 40's. This visited me in my 50's and won't go away. It has just started to work for the scalp (finally) but I feel like crap. | Feeling lethargic, like my limbs have to be carried by someone else, tired, irritable, angry (this could be situational), fluelike symptoms, and feeling like I have hangover the next day after taking at night. The cure is worse than the disease. | F | 56 | 2 days | 8/24/2004 | 4 | sleep, anxiety | See the ratings for Sinequan | See the ratings for Sinequan | F | 49 | 9 months | 4/23/2004 | 5 | anxiety | a little sleepiness at first but my body got used to it and it went away. a bit of blurry vision at times but nothing major. | I was having extreme anxiety where my nerves would just drive me crazy, I'd actually shake uncontrollably, I had horrible chest pains, dizziness, heart palpitations. This medicine within 3 weeks time has taken all of it away. I feel like myself again. I have been on it for 9 months now. | F | 31 | 9 months | 4/7/2004 | 5 | chronic hives | Taken at night, the sedation side effect helps me fall asleep better. This is the BEST medication for hives. It is an antidepressant with extremely strong antihistamine qualities. I suffered for 20 years with chronic hives before they were completely brought under control by using Doxepin. | M | 9 years | 3/3/2004 | 2 | for hives | There were no results at all | I hope it will do someone else some good | F | 53 | 2 weeks | 1/4/2004 | 5 | Contact Dermographism | Sleepiness. | I have been taking Doxepin for over 2 yrs and I can't imaging not taking it, it has helped sooooo much. No more hives!!! | F | 23 | 2 years | 11/21/2003 | 1 | sleep | drunk feeling, buzzing sound in ears, moving room | F | 25 | 1 days | 9/16/2003 | 5 | Chronic hives (Uticaria) | Very tired all day long and irritable. | But no hives!!!! Previously took Atarax, Allegra, Tagamet, Claritan...and finally Prednisone (prednisone worked, but bad for you to take) | M | 27 | 2 weeks | 8/23/2003 |
