I've got this nasty headache.. through the temples, causing me to frown and eyes to water. Nothing is easing it really, though the only painkillers I have is ibuprofen.
Tried my usual temple massage, rubbing the back of my neck..I'm down to 4mg a day now, do you htink it could be related cos the headache has been here 48 hours now.
Thanks

Hi, i remember i quitted reboxetine cold turkey because i wanted the s*** out of my system ASAP. I never had any problems with headache, hard to say if it is related. Does the ibuprofen help?
Take care

Sorry for not contributing to the headache problem but may ask you what went wrong with Reboxetine ? I was thinking about trying it in the future.

Hi,
well, too much adenaline, i became shaky, nauseous and more anxious. But worst of all was the ache in the testicles and the prostate. No sexual drive whatsoever, and it seemed like the semen production stopped.
But don't be discouraged, everyone responds differently and if you need a noradrenalinergic drug give a shot.

Hi,
No, the ibuprofen isn't helping at all. Though I've just had a long soak in a hot bath, and that seems to have eased it a bit.
Thanks for replying

Hi,
well, the reboxetine definately started easing my depression. I was up to 8mg, so not even up to max dose of 12mg.
But, it seemed to have really started increasing my panic attacks when i go out. The panic attacks started returning very badly around the time I started on it, and after getting advice from here, my pdoc and I decided that it could very well be caused by the reboxetine, so we decided to stop it and see what happens.
I know quite a few others that have had great results from it though, with no side effects.
