Side
effects may occur when antidepressants are prescribed. Much
of the time these side effects become less severe as time
goes on, and may be minimized by changing the time of day
that they are administered. Common side effects include: jitteriness,
sleep disruption, sleepiness during the day, weight gain,
sexual side effects, dry mouth, and tremulousness.
It is important to speak to your health care provider if you
are experiencing side effects so that your dosage can be adjusted,
or another medication added to minimize side effects. Often
times the side effects can be minimized.
