They have put her on Effexor (anti-depressant) and Vistaril (anxiety). She has come off of the Zofran and Reglan and hasn't been sick since Monday. So that is a good sign. Now she has started to have tremors and shakes. I am not sure if it is coming off of the Zofran and Reglan or starting of the two new drugs for the depression. She had this same reaction in October when she was admitted due to the constant vomiting. She had shakes and convulsions when she took phenegran.
So I have a few concerns/questions:
- Anyone ever been on Effexor while pregnant? I have found info on the net that concerns me. Some infants experience breathing and other issues when born.
- Anyone heard of issues coming off of Zofran and Reglan? She seems to being having withdrawals.
- Anyone had any experience with Vistaril? I have found on the internet that it has side effects of shaking, tremors and convulsions.
I just don't know which issue is causing the shakes and tremors. Is it the withdrawal from the Zofran and Reglan..... or is it because she is taking the Vistaril and Effexor?
The Doctor hasn't returned my calls and the Nurse only tells me that I will need to talk with the Doctor.
