Sinequan contains the active ingredient doxepin hydrochloride. It is a prescription medication used to treat certain types of depression and anxiety.
Sinequan may be used to treat depression, including major depressive disorder.
Depression can affect how you feel, think, sleep, eat, and handle everyday activities. Symptoms may include:
Sinequan may help improve these symptoms over time.
Sinequan may also be used to treat anxiety, including anxiety that occurs along with depression.
Anxiety can cause symptoms such as:
Sinequan may help reduce these symptoms and improve your overall sense of well-being.
Sinequan belongs to a group of medications called tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs).
It works by increasing the activity of certain natural chemicals in the brain, especially serotonin and norepinephrine. These chemicals play an important role in mood, emotions, and anxiety.
By helping keep more serotonin and norepinephrine available in the brain, Sinequan may help improve mood and reduce anxiety symptoms.
Sinequan also affects other chemical receptors in the body, including histamine receptors.
Because of this, it may cause side effects such as:
These effects can vary from person to person.
Some symptoms, such as sleep problems or anxiety, may begin to improve earlier in treatment.
However, it may take several weeks to feel the full effect on depression or overall mood.
Continue taking Sinequan as prescribed even if you do not notice improvement right away.
Sinequan should not be confused with low-dose doxepin products such as Silenor.
Both medications contain doxepin, but they are used differently.
Sinequan is generally used at higher doses to treat depression and anxiety, while Silenor is used at much lower doses to help people stay asleep.
Do not switch between these products unless your healthcare provider tells you to.
Sinequan is taken by mouth as directed by your healthcare provider.
Your dose depends on the condition being treated, how severe your symptoms are, how well you respond to treatment, and whether you develop side effects.
Sinequan may be taken in divided doses throughout the day or as a single daily dose, depending on the dose prescribed. If it is taken once daily, your healthcare provider may recommend taking it at bedtime because the medication can cause drowsiness.
Your healthcare provider may start you at a lower dose and gradually increase it.
Starting with a lower dose can help reduce side effects such as:
Do not increase your dose, take Sinequan more often, or use it for longer than prescribed.
Take Sinequan at about the same time each day.
Taking it regularly helps maintain a consistent amount of medication in your body and gives it the best chance to work properly.
Continue taking Sinequan even if you begin to feel better. Do not stop treatment on your own.
Swallow Sinequan capsules with water.
If you have difficulty swallowing the capsules, speak with your healthcare provider or pharmacist rather than opening or changing the capsules on your own.
Instructions about diluting doxepin with water, juice, or other liquids apply to certain liquid formulations of doxepin, not to Sinequan capsules.
Some symptoms, such as anxiety or sleep problems, may begin to improve earlier in treatment.
However, it may take 2 to 3 weeks or longer to experience the full antidepressant effect.
Continue taking Sinequan as prescribed even if you do not notice improvement right away.
Do not suddenly stop taking Sinequan unless your healthcare provider tells you to.
Stopping treatment too quickly may cause symptoms such as:
Your original symptoms may also return or become worse.
When Sinequan needs to be stopped, your healthcare provider may gradually reduce your dose.
If you miss a dose of Sinequan, take it when you remember unless it is almost time for your next scheduled dose.
If your next dose is approaching, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule.
Do not take two doses at the same time or take extra Sinequan to make up for a missed dose.
Before taking Sinequan, tell your healthcare provider about all medications and supplements you use, including:
Some medications can interact with Sinequan and may increase the risk of side effects.
Take Sinequan exactly as prescribed and attend any recommended follow-up appointments.
Contact your healthcare provider if your symptoms become worse, you experience concerning side effects, or you notice significant changes in your mood or behavior.
Sinequan (Doxepin Hydrochloride) is available in the following forms and strengths:
Sinequan may increase the risk of suicidal thoughts or behavior in some children, adolescents, and young adults, especially when treatment is first started or the dose is changed.
Patients should be monitored for:
Contact a healthcare provider right away if any of these symptoms occur.
Sinequan can cause drowsiness, dizziness, slowed thinking, or reduced coordination.
Until you know how the medication affects you, avoid driving, operating machinery, or doing other activities that require full alertness.
Alcohol and other medications that cause drowsiness can make these effects stronger.
Sinequan may lower the seizure threshold in some people.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have a history of seizures or take medications that may also increase seizure risk.
Sinequan can make it more difficult to urinate.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have a history of urinary retention, an enlarged prostate, or other urinary problems.
Contact your healthcare provider if you develop difficulty starting urination, weak urine flow, or an inability to empty your bladder.
Sinequan can increase pressure inside the eye in people who are at risk for certain types of glaucoma.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have glaucoma, especially narrow-angle glaucoma.
Seek prompt medical attention if you develop severe eye pain, blurred vision, halos around lights, or sudden vision changes.
Sinequan can cause anticholinergic side effects, including:
These effects may be more noticeable in older adults or people who are sensitive to anticholinergic medications.
Sinequan should be used carefully in people with cardiovascular disease.
Tricyclic antidepressants can affect heart rhythm and electrical conduction.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have:
Sinequan is generally not recommended during the immediate recovery period after a heart attack.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have liver disease.
Because doxepin is processed by the liver, liver impairment may increase the amount of medication in the body and raise the risk of side effects.
A lower dose or closer monitoring may be needed.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have kidney disease.
Kidney problems do not always require a specific dose adjustment, but your healthcare provider may still consider your kidney function, age, other medical conditions, and medications when choosing the dose.
Sinequan can interact with many medications and substances.
Important interactions may occur with:
Tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medications, over-the-counter products, vitamins, supplements, and herbal products you use.
Do not start or stop another medication without checking with your healthcare provider.
Sinequan should not be taken together with an MAOI.
Using these medications too close together can cause serious or potentially life-threatening reactions.
A waiting period is usually required when switching between Sinequan and an MAOI.
Do not stop taking Sinequan suddenly unless your healthcare provider tells you to.
Stopping too quickly may cause symptoms such as:
Your original symptoms may also return or become worse.
Your healthcare provider may recommend gradually reducing the dose before treatment is stopped.
Seek immediate medical attention if you develop serious symptoms such as a seizure, trouble breathing, fainting, a very fast or irregular heartbeat, severe confusion, or swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat. You should also contact a healthcare provider promptly if you notice severe mood changes or thoughts of self-harm.
Tell your healthcare provider if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Sinequan may be used during pregnancy only when the potential benefits outweigh the possible risks. Your healthcare provider will consider your condition, treatment needs, and available alternatives before recommending it. Doxepin can pass into breast milk and may cause serious side effects in a nursing infant, including excessive sleepiness or breathing problems. Breastfeeding is generally not recommended while taking Sinequan.
Some symptoms, such as anxiety or sleep problems, may begin to improve earlier in treatment. However, it may take 2 to 3 weeks or longer to experience the full antidepressant effect. Continue taking Sinequan exactly as prescribed, even if you do not notice improvement right away.
If you miss a dose of Sinequan, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not take two doses at the same time or take extra Sinequan to make up for the missed dose.
