Sideeffects of medication
I am taking voxitin 10 mg as suggested by my psychiatrist for 2 months now. But as days pass , the side effects are not reducing. Especially the nausea feeling is growing more and more and few times I have puked as well and i dont feel like taking tablets at all. What should i do? But overall I can see i am getting better.
How should I approach this?

Hello reader,
Medications do have side effects but its better to first rule out any dietary or lifestyle habits causing these problems.
If none identified,a different antidep from other class might be helpful

If you are getting better on voxitin, you can continue it.
For nausea, you can try taking medication after meal. You can even split the dosage & if needed you can try taking antiemetic medication also.

Talk with your prescriber for side effects
