Man,
I took Reboxetine for the first time last night --4mg at 9pm and by 10pm, my depression was worse and by 1am, I had the most excruciating headache. The type of brain squeezing headache that's felt in "major" depression. I couldn't sleep.
I have atypical depression with the "major" depression becoming a bigger factor of the disease.
Today, my doctor said cut the dose to 2mg and take it before bed, but I'm afraid to take this stuff.
Since I have atypical depression, there aren't too many solutions out there, except for the MAOIs, which I don't want to take due to the side effects.
Has anybody had a bad initial experience with Reboxetine and will the headaches and depression go away?
I also heard that this stuff could cause impotency. Any truth to that?
Thx.
Pat
