Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
Every antidepressant I take causes me a lot of hyperhidrosis. Which one on the market is less likely to cause hyperhidrosis? Is it Fluoxetine?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Though the propensity of an antidepressant medicine to cause hyperhidrosis differs on a patient-to-patient basis. Mirtazapine and Bupropion are less likely to cause it. You can also discuss with the treating psychiatrist regarding adding Cyproheptadine or Benztropine for hyperhidrosis. Hope this solves your query. Feel free to ask if you have any further queries. Thank you.
