Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
Tryptomer is a typical antidepressant and many times it may cause such symptoms as dizziness during the initial period of use. If you use it over a period of time then these side-effects are mostly self limiting and you will start feeling better.
Tancodep and tryptomer are not very different in their efficacy.
However is the side-effects persist then you should consider switching the anti-depressant.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
