A member asked:

Brintellix safe to use i'm 22 what should i worry when starting medicine side effects things associated with this medicine worry me?

Start medicine: side effects of medications like Brintellix are rarely encountered if stated at low dose and gradually increased. So try the medication with gradual titration..
