Anyone on these ADs? My new pdoc and I discussed possibly changing from Lexapro to Viibryd (he likened it to a clean and potent Buspbar) or adding Pristiq to my Lexapro.
Any input and feedback is much appreciated.
Thanks,
b

One poster likes viibryd that I remember, my old pdoc liked pristiq took it herself for a couple of years and then went off the med. Can you add pristiq to lexapro? What doses? How come now just the one or other? Phillipa

hi p-
I think my new pdoc wants to keep the meds simple and make adjustments/enhancements w/ supplements, possibly ketamine and TMS.
Is it Eric (Phiddipus) who takes Viibryd? I never liked Effexor so I feel like I wouldn't like Pristiq.
I'll be adding Deplin again too. I was feeling slightly better but I'm back in a hole again. I'm going for my 2nd round of Ketamine shots tomorrow and I pray I respond positively. This has been one of the worst episodes of my life :(.
Hope you're well.

If you wanted to give your depression the "one-two knockout punch" could i suggest Viibryd plus nortriptyline taken together.
The combo has multiple actions on both anxiety and depression, you might find it very helpfull
