Doxepin for Neuropathic Pain Reviews

"Craving for sweets but otherwise no appetite. Increased dry mouth, sore and bleeding gums, vivid dreams, brain fog the next day. I was given Silenor because I wake up every 2 hours. While I sleep, I’m told I thrash about, “seize” my leg muscles, and very loud and verbal during sleep. Even though I still wake every 2 hours, half the time I go back to sleep for an hour. Still only getting about four hours but not in a row."


"I've had non-stop itching with no rash for over a year. Been thru all sorts of antihistamines, cortisone shots, prednisone, special formulary creams and pills, but nothing worked until I started Doxepin. To be fair, I've only been on it a week along with a new cream and 90% of the incessant itch is gone! I've finally had a good nights sleep. Only downside is how sleepy it makes me, especially since I'm on a twice a day regimen. Hopefully that will subside. But I'm loving not itching!!"
