Nardil + restless legs?

Posted by g_g_g_unit on March 9, 2009, at 16:50:19

i am curious whether nardil has been linked to restless legs? i remember on luvox i had such bad RLS that i could barely sit still for 5 minutes at a time. if i am experiencing it on nardil, it's a lot milder - more of a nuisance - though maybe the fact that i'm questioning its existence at all means its psychosomatic . . .

For me any AD that effect seratonin causes restless legs. I have it right now on just 100mg of imipramine. I can't think of any AD that doesn't cause it for me unless it's one that only effects noradrenaline.
I definatly had it when i was on nardil last year.

Could be akathisia.

hmm. one problem with these boards is that they can wreck havoc with one's innate hypochondria. i considered it might be akathisia, but i'm only really getting the sensation in my legs, and like i say, they're pretty mild. still, i'd prefer/am hoping the RLS is a transient side-effect ...

Probably is transient. Love Phillipa
