Depression
"I was given 60 days samples of brintellix 10mg from my cnp to replace ibuproprion (Wellbutrin) 150mg  and gen lexapro 20mg -which was causing my bp to go up.  I also take Ritalin up to 40 mg per day as need

I am a 46yo female w gad and adhd.  brintellix was an option to address the gad w/o affecting  bp.  

 I began brintellix on 7/16 and quit 7/30 bc I couldn&#039;t tolerate the following S.E&#039;s. 

&bull;dizziness!! 

mental fog

&bull;diarrhea every morn 

&bull; increased appetite (gained 10 lbs in the 15        days I was on this med)

&bull; incr in irritability-   

&bull; floaters in my vision including seeing sparkly flashes of light  -very weird! 

I stopped taking brin on 7/31.  se symptoms have mostly gone but still feeling brain foggy"
