A member asked:
What ssri's/snri's are not associated with the side effect of sweating as so many seem to make you sweat uncomfortably?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None: Increased sweating or night sweats is an uncommon side effect ( 7% to 19%) for the ssris or snris but there is not a good literature on which ones may be less likely to cause increased sweating. Cyproheptadine 4mg has been shown in a small case study to help with excess sweating as an anticholinergic and antihistamine agent, but then you can have side effects from that (dry mouth, constipation).
