> There was a thread almost a year ago wherein AndrewB, SLS and others were discussing an eyedrop available here in the US. In using this eyedrop, supposedly, you may be able to predict your response to Reboxetine. Maybe you can address a thread to them, if you are interested. I know nothing more about it than this.
Hi.I had nothing to do with it! :-)
AndrewB had introduced the possibility of using eyedrops containing naphazoline, a NE alpha receptor agonist, as a test to rate the likelihood of responding to specific NE medications like reboxetine. A positive result to the test was represented by an immediate but extremely brief feeling of improvement. I don't know if a consensus was reached as to the validity of the test. You can probably find out more about the uses of naphazoline for chronic fatigue at:
I did not use naphazoline. I did try reboxetine a year ago and reacted very poorly to it. It made me feel much worse.
