Xyrem Side Effects Please Help Posted: 04-06-04 08:37am
Please help I need to know if any one else
has had anxiety feelings after being on
xyrem. I started out taking 4.5 ml twice
a night. I also take seroquel 25mg, which
I am stopping in a few days. For 11 days
it was 4.5 ml both doses. Then fri the
doc. Upped the second dose from 4.5 ml to
6 ml b/c I was not resting well or staying
asleep well on the second dose. Sat. I
felt nervous and sun I was just felt
totally overwhelmed and cried most of the
day. Today I feel very nervous and fight
tears several times at work. I have had
problems with anxiety a few years ago and
currently being treated for depression
with effexor. Because of my history i’m
not sure if it’s side effects or something
else. Has anyone else had anxiety or feel
like crying with xyrem? If so how long
did it last?
Thank you
amy

Just to let anyone know who reads the
above post. I spoke to my Dr.'s office
and they suggest I stop the xyrem. I've
been off xyrem for 6 days and all the bad
feels are gone. Apparently sadness and
anxiety can be side effects.
