Luvox side effect?

Posted by Jeff on June 25, 1998, at 15:39:57

Hi,
I recently started taking Luvox. I have noticed some water retention in my hands and feet. Sometimes they feel a little tingly or hot. Other times I feel flushed or warm. Could this be caused by the Luvox? I have some other minor side effects, but they appear to be 'normal' (yawning, some shakiness, tiredness).
I also get some panic/anxiety attacks which I take Tranxene for.
Thx

They sound like side effects I've seen listed for
various SSRIs. Ask your pharmacist for the package
insert for Luvox -- it will list all of the side
effects reported during trials.

I have been taking Luvox for over 18 months and have had a real problem losing weight. This must be a side effect for almost all drugs for Bipolar Disorder. Any suggestions.
