"Do not take if you are on methotrexate and leflunomide for rheumatoid arthritis. It overrides the arthritis medication and makes you become inflamed again, and you will have to go back on steroids. I only took this medication for three days, and it made me sleep for 15 hours on the first night. The second night, it overrid my arthritis medication and made my arthritis flare up, and I couldn't sleep. On the third night, I didn't sleep and had a major migraine."

"I had been taking fluvoxamine 100 mg since I was 8, I am now almost 26 years old. So 17 years. Diagnosed with ODC and depression at 8 years old. I was sexually abused, which kicked everything into motion. Luvox really pulled me out of depression. I'm super grateful for it for all of these years. I haven't been on it for the past 3 months because it interacted with my Vyvanse in a very terrible way. My compulsive thoughts almost destroyed my marriage, and I fell into the deepest depression I've ever been in. I took myself off Luvox, and everything is better than it was before! Cons of fluvoxamine: emotionless, drowsiness, restless sleep, excessive yawning, dizziness, and easy bruising. All of which went away when I stopped my Luvox 3 months ago. I didn't even realize some of these were side effects because I had been on it for. Pros: no depression."

"Used to be somewhat effective (hence it even getting a 3), but now is about as effective as placebo at best. The only things keeping me stable right now are Seroquel XR, Wellbutrin XL, and a lot of caffeine. I'm still trying to even get an appointment scheduled with my psychiatrist so I can get off of this useless drug and onto something that might actually work, and it's probably not going to be an SSRI, since I've taken several of them before and none of them have worked except Paxil, but that gave me too many side effects."

"This did not work. It also gave me side effects of acne and pimples on my face. I was on 50 mg."
