> That study was a good tie-in for Lilly (both drugs are manufactured by them), and "surprize", it was funded by them. ;^) Actually clozapine and risperidone have both shown to work in augmenting SSRI antidepressants, as well. - Cam
Someone brought it up on a newgroup that Prozac and Zyprexa are both metabolized by the same enzyme. The conclusion that was drawn was that it would be better to take meds that don't inhibit the same enzyme, but that's to be taken with a grain of salt.
Since you brought up the Lilly angle, I was thinking that you could also add some of their insulin for the tried and proven insulin coma therapy. That way you'd get a Lilly trifecta, and presumably bring a smile to Randall Tobias' face.
