Hello, I am 47 years old and I am trying to deal with my health problem the best I can. Well, it is more mental than physical; it looks like I can’t escape from depression jaws! So, I have decided to take some medications and it worked! Depression is suppressed, but there is a problem with dry mouth and bleeding! Could taking anti depressants lead to those two?
Well, it is possible. I know that dry mouth can be a side effect of anti depressants, so I assume it goes for gum bleeding too (especially if you are taking more than one drug). So, I guess you have to determine if the improvement with your depression is worth having some other health issues. If it is not, then you should go to a doctor and see what can be done about your problems.
