I am presently on Escitalopram (14 years) and it seems to have stopped helping. I have Mixed Anxiety and depressive disorder and now some osteoarthritis pain. I have read that Duloxetine is good for all 3 but the recent USA recalls for nitrosamines has rather scared me off. Anyone taken Venlafaxine for pain relief as well as anxiety/depression please?
I have in the past had older types of AD and more recently tried Prozac, Sertraline and Citalopram without help.
