A member asked:
I have been on vortioxetine antidepressant for a month and have lots of bruising and easily bleeding. it lists this as a possible side effect? danger?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If you take a medication such as aspirin or a blood thinner such as coumadin that interacts with the antidepressant you are taking ans can cause bleeding such as gi bleeding. You may be better off if switched to a non ssri antidepressant by your doctor. Your doctor can taper you off from you current medication and put you on a non ssri antidepressant. Contact to your doctor to discuss.
