Qulipta increased and exhaustion
My doctor increased my qulipta from 30mg to 60mg. It's been a few days and I'm exhausted and I'm experiencing some brain fog. Has anyone else experienced this and will it go away as my body adjusts?
Hi
, I just wanted to check in. How is the exhaustion and brain fog been the past week? Were you able to reach out to your doctor about possible side effects? I will note, I was able to find this about side effects of Qulipta, "Side effects are usually most noticeable in the first couple of weeks after you start taking Qulipta. For most people, they are mild and get better with time." (https://www.drugs.com/sfx/qulipta-side-effects.html) Of course, please don't hesitate to reach out to your doctor, if you haven't already, especially if they don't start to get better or are getting worse. Sending you gentle hugs. -- Warmly, Christine (Team Member) It got much better. Unfortunately now im feeling really bad and im not sure if it's migraine stuff or something else. I'll rest for a couple of days and try to figure it out. Thanks for all the support. It's really nice.
I'm sorry I missed this message last week! How are you doing? Were you able to rest for a couple days? And are you feeling more like yourself again? Thinking of you. -- Warmly, Christine (Team Member)
I am feeling better although sleep has been difficult due to travel. Hopefully my little brain will be able to cope with it for a couple more days. Thanks for checking in.
Glad to hear you’re feeling a bit better, Dianna. Travel always throws my sleep off too, so it’s hard to tell sometimes what’s the medication and what’s just being tired from being on the go. Once you’re home and back in your normal routine, it might be easier to see how the 60mg is really sitting with you. I hope you get some good rest soon and that the brain fog keeps easing up. Take care of yourself.
Thanks!
