I've been on this prescription for about a week and a half now. Switched over from bupropion sr. & effexor at the same time. Coming off effexor and surprising not 1 side effect. effexor was decreasing my libido and not sure if coming off effexor or going on aplenzin (or both) but my libido is coming back and the depression has lifted for the most part.

Hoping that it only gets better ~ Surprised at how quick this is working. Effexor worked for me last year, but not at all this year. cost between effexor and aplenzin are about the same with my insurance. Had a little nausea the first 3 days but that's it. I have the energy that i got off the wellbutrin. So I'd reccommend this. Good luck to all

I had been on different medications for years and was put on Aplenzin. I took the first pill on Tuesday morning and was filling slightly sick that evening which I attributed to switching medications. Wednesday morning I woke up feeling dizzy and had to sit down while trying to get ready for work. I actually took a motion sickness pill mid-morning and one mid-afternoon just to be able to function at work. Any sudden movements would make my head spin and I'd have to sit down, and my tongue swelled and I had several mouth sores develope. Again I attributed it to switching medications. Thursday I woke up to the same symptoms so I didn't take Aplenzin that morning and called the doctors office. I was told it was probably an allergic reaction and I should stop the medication. I have never had this type of reaction to any other depression medication.

This drug is fairly new to me. I have only had experience with one other antidepressant before Aplenzin unsuccessfully. This has not truly assisted my level of anxiety, but has given me an overall feeling of well being and has diminished emotional reactions to troubling aspects of my environment. It has been successful at stabilizing me to previous normality.
