Hi everyone, hoping you can help. My mother is 94 and has JAK-2 positive thrombocytosis, which is being managed with Hydrea. She is having an exacerbation in depressive symptoms, so we are wondering if Hydrea could have anything to do with that. She was taking Lexapro for depression, but then switched to Cymbalta. She didn't feel very well on Cymbalta, so the doctor is now switching her back to Lexapro. The mood issues were getting worse before the changing of the meds occurred.
I didn't see
Depression as one of Hydrea's side-effects, but thought it was worth asking the question here.
Many thanks for reading, and any insight you may have.
