Medications that make dryness worse

[Deb 27]

So, I've been having what I think is a fibromyalgia flare and I've noticed that a lot of antidepressants and sleep aids such as flexeril cause the dryness to get much worse. Does anyone have any tips on meds that do not cause dryness for sleep and antidepressants? I could not take cymbalta.  I am on celexa right now and it doesn't seem to make me too dry but it's not helping either.

You have to just keep trying meds until you find one that is tolerable and that also helps your depression. Most medications can cause dryness in some way or another. The bottom line is just how much help the med gives and if you can tolerate more dryness. I sometimes wonder just how much dryness is too much. Dry is dry and can vary. Irish
