Can Medicine For Depression Cause Slurred Speech And Headaches?
What drugs are used for depression. My friend was diagnosed with clinical depression. After 5 days he had severe headaches, nausea, diarhea and is in the hospital. Her speech sounds slurred. Could this be the effect of her medication? Her blood pessure was 180 over 102. Could she be suffering from a stroke?

Hello.
A stroke is more likely than depression to cause such symptoms. Please discuss things in detail with her doctor. She will require statins, a blood thinner, a weight loss program, and blood pressure medications.
