I've been on Trintellix for about a year now, currently taking 20 mgs a day. I also take Focalin (10 mg) and buspar (15 mg). Since August, I've been having issues with my balance. I've fallen 4 times (one of those times down a flight of carpeted stairs) in 4 months. I'm not dizzy, just unsteady on my feet. No major injuries, just bumps and a lot of bruises. After talking to my psychiatrist, he made me promise to see a doctor about this saying "once or twice is a coincidence, 4 times is a conspiracy". I've made an appointment with my pcp, but I feel like he may write off the falls from the medication I'm taking (which is the reason I haven't seen him sooner). I can't confirm that the problems with my balance startes when I began taking trintellix, but I'm pretty sure dizziness is a side effect. I'm curious to know if anyone else has had these issues?
