Fluvoxamine

Uses

Fluvoxamine is used in the treatment of depression, anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, phobias, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

How it Works

How Fluvoxamine works Fluvoxamine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant. It functions by increasing the levels of serotonin, a chemical messenger in the brain. This enhancement improves mood and alleviates physical symptoms of depression, as well as relieving symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Fluvoxamine include insomnia (difficulty sleeping), dry mouth, nervousness, constipation, decreased appetite, diarrhea, dizziness, headache, sleepiness, weakness, dyspepsia, agitation, palpitations, abdominal pain, and general discomfort.

Expert Advice

  • Fluvoxamine should be taken at night, with or without food.
  • The potential for addiction or dependence on Fluvoxamine is very low.
  • Exercise caution when taking Fluvoxamine if you have previously used benzodiazepines or MAO inhibitors.
  • Avoid driving or engaging in activities that require concentration until you understand how Fluvoxamine affects you.
  • Fluvoxamine may lead to serotonin syndrome when taken in combination with other drugs.
  • Avoid serotonergic drugs such as triptans, lithium, and tramadol.
  • Consult your doctor if you notice sudden mood changes or develop suicidal thoughts.
  • Do not discontinue the medication abruptly without consulting your doctor.
  • It may take 2-3 weeks for Fluvoxamine to start working.
  • Stopping treatment suddenly may result in an upset stomach, flu-like withdrawal symptoms, and sleep disturbances.
  • If your doctor advises you to stop Fluvoxamine, gradually reduce the dose over 4 weeks.
  • Avoid consuming alcohol while taking Fluvoxamine, as it may cause excessive drowsiness and sedation.
