Does anyone have any feedback on this new medication, Brintellix? My pdoc just started me on 10 mg today, after stopping the Fetzima. I took the Fetzima for almost two weeks and couldn't bare it any longer. It increased my depression and anxiety to where I could not function. I also take Latuda and Remeron at night. The Brintellix will be taken in the morn. I suffer from major depressive disorder and trying to find the right 'cocktail'. Just wondering about potential side effects of Brintellix? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank You...

I'm Bipolar II and tried Brintellix. It had a glazing effect on me as do most SSRIs no matter how new and great they're supposed to be. I was just a space cadet with no sex drive while on it. As you know, though, things aren't the same for everybody. I've heard good things about it, and it never hurts to give something new a shot. Just my opinion and experience.
