Question : Hi! I'm suffering from tail bone pain since 10 months. Recently, I have been prescribed Sensival 25, once daily. I have learnt that it's an antidepressant. Is it safe for me? Will it have any side effects?

Hello,
thanks for choosing Health care magic.
sensivel is antidepressants having side effect like dizziness, drowsiness, headache, nausea, vomiting and some allergic reaction. usually it is safe ,minor side effects will resolve automatically. But for pain you can take pain killer and muscle relaxant and do hot fomentations.
