MedHelp Member's Question

Lovan and probs taking them

by carergirl, Oct 01, 2009 05:37AM

Hi all,
I care for my partner with anxiety and she has been given Lovan to try out. She is having a lot of problems taking them because she is scared of side effects and increase in suicidal thoughts.

Has anyone had or is on Lovan? Did you have a lot of side effects? Any help to help me help her take them? She's finding it hard to leave the house now.

Please help.

This is Prozac. Of the ssris, it's been around a long time and is the easiest to quit. If she's going to take one, this is where you start. No way to know how it'll affect her, because everyone has their own reactions.
