hi ben!
yes, i take milnacipran. today i finished my third week with this AD.
but the first week i took only 25mg twice a day, and then i started to
to take the recommended dose of 2x50mg.
at the moment i'm a little bit disappointed because it doesn't seem
to have the same strong mood-enhancing effect as the ADs i have tried before (paroxetin, sertralin), but the
good thing is that it doesn't seem to disappoint my girlfriend (the other AD did-that's the reason i stopped them)
also-i think my sleep pattern is improving and i feel no adverse side-effects.
my psychiatrist told me that she often prescribes milnacipran to young men because of the lack of sexual dysfunctions associated with this drug.
she also said i should try this drug because of the noradrenaline-reuptake-inhibition that will probably make me more active.
my motto now is: wait and see
does anybody else have experiences with milnacipran? please, post them!mat
