Taking Saphris For Schizophrenia, Effexor For Depression. Have Leg And Muscle Pain. Due To Medicine Interaction?
Hi, I have schizophrenia and I'm taking saphris, clopixol and Seroquel. I take also Effexor for depression and I have a lot of pain in my articulations and muscles in my legs (I have difficulty for walking). I saw a physician yesterday and he gave me flexeril.
Do you think I can have interactions with my medication that cause me all of this pain?

Welcome to HCM.Clopixol is known to cause arthritis and joint pains.Saphris may cause stiffness of muscles.It would be prudent to discuss the medication with your health care provider as antipsychotic drugs may be causing the aches and pains.Arthrtis needs to be ruled out.
