Advice & Tips
This medication can be very rough on the stomach in terms of nausea. We started me very slow...We took about a month to get me to my current dosage. I've lost quite a bit of weight (the opposite effect of Lyrica) because this med has effected my appetite...The weight loss was welcome. As it's similar to an antidepressant, it has also helped with my mood. It's turned the volume down on the fibro a notch or two, it's no silver bullet, though.

About Savella (Prescription Drug)

Savella is a brand name for the antidepressant milnacipran, a selective serotonin and norepinephrine dual reuptake inhibitor (SNRI). It was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the management of fibromyalgia to improve pain, patient global assessment, and physical function.
