Pamelor - Increasing Anxiety?

Posted by becksA on July 23, 2004, at 13:42:25

I started Pamelor about a couple weeks ago,,,(I also take Xanax XR) and in the past couple days I have noticed my anxiety going back up.. Has this been known to be a side effect of Pamelor?
Thanks

It could be that you raised the dosage too quickly. What dose Pamelor are you on now?

I was at 25 for a couple days...now I've been at 50 for almost a week.

Raising the dose from 25 to 50 mg can definitely induce anxiety. The anxiety should go down as you adjust to the increased dosage. It might take 2 weeks for the side effect to subside.
