What is a generic medication?
Generic medications are significantly discounted copies of brand name medication that have the same active ingredients, intended use, dosage, side effects, effects, and route of administration as the original brand name medication. In other words, generic medications have the same pharmacological effects as their brand-name counterparts. Over half of all prescribed medications are for generic medications.

Sinequan Overview
Sinequan is used to treat mental/mood problems such as depression and anxiety. It may help improve mood and feelings of well-being, relieve anxiety and tension, help you sleep better, and increase your energy level. Sinequan belongs to a class of medications called tricyclic antidepressants. It works by affecting the balance of certain natural chemicals (neurotransmitters) in the brain.
Sinequan Warnings
Antidepressant medications are used to treat a variety of conditions, including depression and other mental/mood disorders. These medications can help prevent suicidal thoughts/attempts and provide other important benefits. However, studies have shown that a small number of people (especially people younger than 25) who take antidepressants for any condition may experience worsening depression, other mental/mood symptoms, or suicidal thoughts/attempts. It is very important to talk with the doctor about the risks and benefits of antidepressant medication (especially for people younger than 25), even if treatment is not for a mental/mood condition. Tell the doctor right away if you notice worsening depression/other psychiatric conditions, unusual behavior changes (including possible suicidal thoughts/attempts), or other mental/mood changes (including new/worsening anxiety, panic attacks, trouble sleeping, irritability, hostile/angry feelings, impulsive actions, severe restlessness, very rapid speech). Be especially watchful for these symptoms when a new antidepressant is started or when the dose is changed.
How to Use Sinequan
Read the Medication Guide provided by your pharmacist before you start taking doxepin and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, consult your doctor or pharmacist. Take Sinequan by mouth, usually 1 to 3 times daily or as directed by your doctor. If you take it only once a day, take it at bedtime to reduce daytime sleepiness. The Dosage of Sinequan is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. To reduce your risk of side effects (such as drowsiness, dry mouth, dizziness), your doctor may direct you to start Sinequan at a low dose and gradually increase your dose. Follow your doctor's instructions carefully. Take Sinequan regularly in order to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, take it at the same time(s) each day. Do not increase your dose or use Sinequan more often or for longer than prescribed. Your condition will not improve any faster, and your risk of side effects will increase. Keep taking Sinequan even if you feel well. Do not stop taking Sinequan without consulting your doctor. Some conditions may become worse when Sinequan is suddenly stopped. Also, you may experience symptoms such as mood swings, headache, and tiredness. To prevent these symptoms while you are stopping treatment with Sinequan, your doctor may reduce your dose gradually. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more details. Report any new or worsening symptoms right away. Sinequan may not work right away. You may see some benefit within a week. However, it may take up to 3 weeks before you feel the full effect. Tell your doctor if your condition lasts or gets worse (such as your feelings of sadness get worse, or you have thoughts of suicide).
Sinequan Precautions

Doxepin may cause a condition that affects the heart rhythm (QT prolongation).
