Title: Prescribed Dosulepin - Any Experiences?
Post by: Tempest on June 12, 2018, 06:41:11 PM

Hi!

I've just been prescribed this by my new Neurologist today to help with dystonia. It's a rarely prescribed tricycluc AD these days, and I'm wondering if any of you have had any experiences of it.

Thank you! xxxx

Actually - scrap that (again) Stellajane! I was told it was Duloxetine by GP the other day,  but I was sure the Neuro. said it was Dosulepin - and sure enough, I got a letter from my Neuro. confirming that it is Dosulepin, or Sodium Valproate if the Dosulepin isn't effective (the latter being rather scarey)!

Please tell me it made your Mum as chilled as a banana,  Stellajane - I could certainly do with a LOT of that! xxxx
