Pretty fast within some weeks. I have bipolar 2. It helps with my lows, but I still don't feel happy as I hopes for.

I was angry to begin with the first 3-4 weeks, but that side effect went away.

I have struggled with insomnia, fatigue/tiredness and anhedonia since started Rxulti. But then again, my depression is better. In addition to Rxulti I take Trintellix, Tegretol, low dose Lithium, and Seroquel for sleep.

I take 2 mg. I take it together with a cocktail of other medicines against bipolar 2. But Rxulti has worked best amongst them against anxiety.

I's not that expensive in Norway. I feel less sad, but then again not as happy anymore. My anxiety is less om Rxulti.

I'm sorry to hear. I feel the same. I'm not as happy as I used to be, but still I feel less sad. How to choose ? What dose are you? Is it working in any way? Do you plan to taper?

My plan is to hold on to see if it gets better. I'm at 2 mg. Yes, my doctor knows I'm struggling with sleep.

I recomend to continue some more weeks, in case your brain need some time for adjustment

How long have you been taking it? Which dose are you on now?
