What is Savella?

Savella is a medication prescribed to adults to help them manage the symptoms of a pain condition called fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia is a condition where you feel widespread pain across your body, and/or feel more sensitive to pain and pressure. You may also experience numbness, tingling, muscle spasms, and increased sensitivity to light, temperature, and noise.

Although there’s no cure for fibromyalgia, you can manage your condition with medications like Savella. You take Savella as a tablet that should be swallowed with water. It can help to reduce the pain you feel, which can then lead to an improvement of your other symptoms which are related to the pain.

Savella active ingredients

The active ingredient in Savella is called milnacipran. It’s a type of drug known as a serotonin–norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI). These drugs are usually used to treat depression, but Savella isn’t an antidepressant. It has a similar action to SNRI antidepressants, as it alters your brain chemistry, but in Savella’s case, this has been shown to help treat fibromyalgia. 

Milnacipran works by increasing the levels of two natural chemicals in your brain called serotonin and norepinephrine. Your brain produces these chemicals, and they help regulate your brain activity by allowing signals to pass through your brain cells.

Serotonin and norepinephrine are continually produced and broken-down in your brain. But milnacipran slows how quickly they’re broken-down, causing their levels to rise. This increase in serotonin and norepinephrine levels has been shown to reduce fibromyalgia pain.

Savella warnings & precautions

Certain medications like Savella can increase the risk of suicidal thoughts and suicide in children and young adults. This often occurs in the first few months of treatment. It is important to monitor young adults for signs of sudden changes in behavior, mood, thoughts, or feelings. 

A condition called discontinuation syndrome can occur if you stop taking Savella suddenly. When this happens serious withdrawal-like side effects can be experienced. 

Savella can also cause side effects, like dizziness and slowed reactions, that can affect your ability to drive, operate machinery, or perform other dangerous tasks. 

Savella isn’t suitable for everyone. Don’t take Savella if you:

  • Are allergic to the active ingredient milnacipran, or any of the other ingredients in Savella 
  • Are taking a Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitor (MAOI). You shouldn’t take Savella if you’ve taken an MAOI in the last 14 days, and avoid taking an MAOI for five days after you last take Savella
  • Are under 18 years of age

Talk to your doctor before taking Savella if you:

  • Are taking any of the medications that could interact with Savella 
  • Have, or have had, depression, suicidal thoughts, or have ever tried to commit suicide
  • Have, or have any family history, of mania or bipolar disorder
  • Have ever had seizures (convulsions)
  • Have any heart problems
  • Have high blood pressure
  • Have any kidney problems
  • Have low blood sodium levels
  • Have, or have had, any bleeding problems
  • Drink alcohol
