has anyone ever tried SSRIs for their GI issues?
happytummy98 posted a topic in IBS Discussion and Symptoms
My GI doctor suggested I take tiny doses of something like Prozac to help with my "sensitive stomach" since everything I eat hurts me and I've ruled out all other possible causes. This seems like my only answer for now although I'm not crazy about the idea, even if it is a tiny dose. Does anyone have experience with this? -

Medical and Psychological Comorbidities Influencing Therapeutic Choices (DDW19)
Jeffrey Roberts posted a topic in IBS Discussion and Symptoms
L Chang: Wide prevalence of comorbid conditions in IBS. Quality of Life (QOL) suffers with the greater number of conditions L Chang: FGiDs (Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders) and IBS comorbidities especially significant for women L Chang: Role for central neuromodulators (antidepressants) for managing FGiDs and IBS L Chang: Tricyclic antidepressants are considered first line for pain modulation. SSRI's antidepressants not as effective for GI pain. SNRI's antidepressants effective for pain. Tetracyclic antidepressants for early satiety, nausea/vomiting, weight loss and sleep disturbance L Chang: New data with pregabalin (Lyrica) for greater than 3 FGiD pain attacks per month. Could be considered for pain L Chang: Co-morbid migraine: CGRP receptor antagonist for IBS-D/M might be an option
