Etymology
The word Sinequan is a trade name for the drug doxepin, and it is a made-up brand name rather than an old word, so a helpful way to remember it is to think of Sinequan as the name of a medicine for depression and anxiety. That's why Sinequan is used to help mood but can also cause side effects like 'dry mouth', 'drowsiness', and 'upset stomach'.
