Answers:
some may cause nausea, it would depend on which you are on. You should call your doctor. It may or may not be a serious side effect.

You could also just be catching a bug and it is a coincidence that it happened at the same time you started the anti-depressant.

Sometimes, just going to the doctor and having him or her acknowledge that you are depressed and offer you help is enough to temporarily lift your mood. If you, your doctor, and possibly your parents felt that anti-depressants were warranted, continue to take them.

But, call you doctor and check on the nausea. Health Question & Answer

Hi,

Anti-depressants can cause various side effects in some people. The most intense ones should usually pass after a couple of weeks though after your body has got used to the drug. If you're curious about the potential side effects of the anti-depressant that you are on, they will be listed in the information sheet that comes in the drug packaging.

I'd advise you to stick with the anti-depressants if you can and give them a chance. If the nausea doesnt pass then you can always go back to the dr and discuss trying something else or a talking therapy like counselling if you dont feel that you need any medication at all.

Good luck and take care.Health Question & Answer
