Prestiq Not Helping

I recently switched from being on/off Prozac for 20 years to taking Celexa, all I wanted to do was sleep all the time after starting it. The Dr. put me on Prestiq, I am on day 15 and not noticing a difference, still want to sleep. Any suggestions on what to try next?

It will take about 4 to 6 weeks, before this medication reaches its full level of efficacy in your body, for you to know if it's going to work for you.

If you don't see any improvement after being on it for at least 4 weeks, then you should consult your doctor.

The FDA lists ts typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, mood swings and weight changes.

What are you taking it to treat?
