    Hi you may be better posting this in the anxiety area as this is amplodopine which is a calcium channel blocker used for high blood pressure (I was on this but within 48 hours was back off the drug)

    None the less whats actually the issue? What anti depressants you been on and have you allowed enough time for them to work (about 6 weeks, and even then you may need the dosage increased)

    I myself am on zoloft/Sertraline and am about 10 weeks down, I started on 50mg and NYE was upped to 100mg. A week in and possibly a bit of nausea is setting in again but I know it is the tablet and jsut riding the wave out of hopefully anxiety hell

    People who do not understand mental illness including depression think you should snap out of it or change your way of thinking will help.The right medication with therapy helps.I take Amlodapine it causes depression, anxiety, so many things.I have ask my Dr to take me off they wont.it causes muscle cramps ,back pain.swelling in joints
