In reply to Micro-doses?, posted by Steve on April 13, 1999, at 21:29:14
I am very sensitive to medications and prone to getting side-effects. I have been taking low doses of various meds. Am getting a reasonable AD response to 50 mg of trazadone, and just started augmenting that with 25 mg. serzone. My doc says combining small doses of different drugs may be the solution to getting a good response without side effects.
