User Reviews for doxepin oral

I take doxepin for migraines and it has worked beautifully. The side effects can be bothersome but they are better then frequent migraines.

Prescribed for severe food alergies. I have not taken the dosage reccomended and that is probably why I am having severe alergic reactions to most foods. Problem is when I do take it and the next I am like a zombie and it usualy takes 8-16 hours to work out of my system. I need to be coherent at work so I do not take it regularly only when I am very sick and am not going to work or drive. How long did it take for your body to stop feeling the drowsiness.I take the 25MG. By the way it works. Thanks Read More Read Less

I an taking this for insomnia. I now sleep like a baby. I takes me abou four hours to come off of it. I also have severe heartburn, trouble urinating and swelleing of my hands and face. But I sleep great!

I am taking this at night to help me with insomnia associated with depression and anxiety..I take prozac during the day and doxepin at night about two hours before i want to go to sleep. It knocks me out!!! I have to go to bed or I would fall asleep in the hallway on the way! I have not had any nightmares on this which I tend to do with new meds so that is a good thing. I like it so far..doing what is is supposed to do for me.

Side effects were worse than the itching.

i dont think its doing what it was prescribed for.

HELPS ME TO FALL ASLEEP

for restless leg syndrome

i experience severe abdominal pain and this medication has changed my life. I am able to do all the things I enjoy and could not due before due to the pain.

It worked wonders for my hives but side effects were almost as bad as predisone.

out of body numbness

This has been the miracle drug for my doctors plan with my ecxema.

I use this medication for migraines. It seems to be the only medication that has worked for me...overall it works magic. The only problem with this medication that I have encountered is that it is difficult to come off of it. The withdrawls are tough, so you can't just jump off of it.

I was having some kind of breakout that caused redness swelling and itching ALL OVER plus throat would close and I could not breathe! They hospitalized me and still didnt know what was wrong. An allergist put me on doxepin to control the outbreaks and it worked. They could never figure out what was causing it. But in case I had another outbreak where I couldn't breathe they equipped me with an EPI pen. A month later I took ibuprofen and had the same allergic reaction! I've always taken ibuprofen apparently now I can't! I tried to get off of the doxepin for a week and started having the outbreaks again. So I take it religiously at night. Oh did I mention its also a GREAT sleep aid?Read More Read Less

i have been takeing this drug for the past 10 years with very good results. if i run out, oh man can i tell it. this drug really helps me get to sleep at night. i am a disabled veteran and the VA is where i get this medication.

This is the first med that I have taken that I am pleased with the effects. I can sleep at night --all night. My stomach is at ease with what ever I eat. I could just hug my doc for meds.
