I agree. I have been on Effexor + Remeron since Remeron came out 2-3 yrs ago. Very effective. It is called a "big gun" in some of the lituature. This combo, in theory, should cover all the bases
as Remeron targets 5HT sites that Effexor dose not. I take 150-300 mgs Effexor XR and 15 mgs Remeron. If I have another breakthru depression my plan is to raise the Remeron to 30mgs.james
