Has anyone tried this for hot flashes?? I don't trust any of the websites that discuss it. I want real info from real people...meaning you guys!

Thanks!

I have not, but do know some anti-depressants are said to work.

I know of one anti depressant that works because I take it. Venlafaxine I still have hotflashes but don't have to sweat during them. Which makes a big difference to me.

Hi,

Couldn't find it in the NCCAM list of the National Institute of Health website.

Below is a link to a disscussion board where many have shared their experience on Amberen:

Thank you all. I'm on Venlafaxine now and would like to get off. I'm still having hot flashes.

Montana, I still have hot flashes also. I have 3 just about every hour when I'm fully dressed. I don't have any other side effects, I don't want to trade off for anything worse. I hope you find something that works for you.
