User Reviews for Endep oral

Firstly I never had depression I had to select something above to write my experience with this medication. I was prescribed Endep10 by my doctor for chronic muscle pain in my neck.I has suffered with this for several weeks unable to sleep or even sit comfortably. The first night I took this it severely knocked me out all night. I woke in the morning at 6am with severe brain fog till 11am in the morning. The next night I started to have vivid psychotic nightmares that I was too drug induced to awake from. After that I through the rest of the medication in the bin. I chose the pain of sleepless nights. I then went to a masseuse who noted that my first rib could be felt through the area behind my collar bone and shoulder blade. Saying that there should not be bone there. I then went to a chiropractor who say that my neck muscles were so tight that they were pulling my first rib up into that region. He did a manipulation that at the time it released was immense pain with instant relief. This trouble with my neck never returned. I had never used alternative methods prior to this always seeking the doctors advise only. I now know there are more roads to travel now when you have troubles. Read More Read Less

Improve my sleep.. less side effects

Trialled 25 mg TDS ..feet are swollen but less than on Lyrica, weight gain and less nighttime voiding. Pain relief is noticeable

I take this medication as a nerve blocker prescribed by a neurologist. It's definitely helped my numbness in my arms and legs and helped me fall asleep easier. Although the side effects are very hard to manage. Please be careful of the mental effects and the tolls it may take on your mental health. If you notice any abnormal thoughts or are feeling more depressed please alert your doctor immediately.

Had good success on 10mg dose then after a short while the migraines started coming back so my dr. increased the dose to 25mg and this has given me a good result. Still get migraines but far, far less frequently & has changed my life. Only side effect i get is a dry mouth and it tastes awful!

pain almost gone sleep better feet not swelling anymore overall feel great

Not only has it helped with Fibromyalgia but it also helped with my migraines and I sleep better

Has assisted with anxiety and certainly helped with sleeping when taken at night prior going to bed.

Endep has proved to be an invaluable treatment option for me, and has changed the way I am able to live my life. Sleep deprivation due to Peripheral Neuropathy, Lichen Sclerosus (with Vulvodynia) and chronic Gastritis meant that I was simply surviving on a daily basis. With the noticeable reduction in pain, slowing of my GI tract and the added bonus of a full nights' sleep for the first time in 3+ years, my life is now one that I am happy to LIVE, not just survive. As others have mentioned, the effects last at least 12 hours and can cause some brain-fog during this time. Take it earlier in the evening if you have something important on the next day.Read More Read Less

It has made severe nerve pain manageable. I would consider these side effects serious if my pain wasn't reduced so much. About an hour after taking it the effects kick in and I get so drowsy I can't see straight. This would be dangerous if I needed to drive before sleeping, maybe worse than being drunk. It's about 12 hours after taking it I feel 100% alert again. I'm on 50mg a night so if I have something important on the next morning I take less so I can think properly.

I was taking this for 2 years (70mg) and for the first 1.5 years it really helped me with my neuro pain and it also helped me sleep every night and improve my overall mental health. After this period i stopped taking it because it stopped helping me.... WARNING! it was a nightmare getting off it and ruined my life. I had to quit studying and reached a suicidal state. Still recovering 6 months later. Panic attacks... extreme anxiety and depressive disorder, list goes on. Just be careful.

Been on this for 14 months along with Lyrica. Came off Lyrica due to weight gain (10kg in 5 months). Endep did help but not as much as both as I also have nerve pain too in left thigh. Starting sweating more recently so not sure if Endep is working anymore. Sleep also getting worse. On 25 mg at night.

I have depression and nerve pain in my neck and back. didn't help with pain. felt good for a few days then deep deep depression after 3rd 4th day. now suffering major pain in my head worse than any migraine that I have ever had, called ambulance twice now to be taken to hospital "thought I was having a stoke". And the dreams my god ! not to mention broken sleep and feeling like a zombie if and when I do wake up.. i'm stopping now !

I have sciatic pain in both legs. No pain relief at all, drowsiness and weight gain. I am taking myself off this drug.

i started using endep for nerve pain relief , i have MS, but now i take it to sleep every night. 3 x 50 mg tablets every night. a good drug for me with no side effects

cannot sleep more than 1hour

skin rash, thickening and harding nails

IT does not help me to sleep which is what it was prescribed for, but I do think it keeps the panic down,so will keep on it.
