lgtaylor100 Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 There was a short post in 2009 about Savella. Has anyone has any experience with this medication since then? My PCP has prescribed it.Lynne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potsgirl Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Hi Lynne~Sorry, I haven't heard of it. Have you looked it up on WebMD.com? It's a good site that explains drugs and their side effects and you can see how people who have tried Savella have rated it. Good luck with it...What symptom is it supposed to treat?Cheers,Jana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyler Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 My mother switched from Lyrica to Savella to treat fibromyalga. She switched because she felt like Lyrica was making her gain weight. She felt that it worked just as well as Lyrica for the achy symptoms. The only problem was that shortly after starting it she began having hand tremors. She was taking a myriad of psych meds and BP meds at the same time but going off of it fixed the tremors. That's the only person that I know that has taken it. Hope this helps.Serena Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
