> Thanks so much for your reply. I've been lurking about here for awhile, so I'm aware what a fan you are of adrafinil + amisulpride. I have considered that combo as well, but was concerned about possible problems with taking amisulpride since I am a woman. (Well, at least the last time I checked.... :) I don't know much about bromoscriptine. But if I were to try the combination, how would my other meds work with that? Would I need to go off anything?

> maryHi Mary,
I don't think Amisulpride would cause any problems. The reason I say that is because the typical dose for depression, dysthymia, blahness, ranges from 25mg to 100mg a day. I take 33mg. At this low dose side effects are few, if any. The endocrine side effects would probably be an issue in the 300mg to 1200mg range. But at 100mg or less I doubt there would be any problem.I've tried Bromocriptine and didn't like. A low dose actually made me more depressed quite fast. Not to mention lethargic, tired, weak-legged, and a tad nauseated. I was reading somewhere that Bromocriptine needs to be taken at high doses for depression. I felt so lousy on it so fast that I just said forget it.
