A member asked:

If i start to experience an ongoing symptom 2-3 wks after starting an ssri/snri, can it still be a side effect of the med, despite the delayed onset?

6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Yes.: Any med can produce just about any symptoms. Please report the symptom to your doc so they can evaluate it.
