> Hi Elizabeth,
Hi Zo.
> Whatever happened with you and Buprenex?
I'm still taking it. (It's not Buprenex, however; it's a generic.) It augments the desipramine well, although I still hope to find something with milder side effects that does the same job.
> I had such a positive (post-surgical) response to Vicodin, bupe is the next thing we're going to try. Locally compounded troches.
Compounding, eh? Fancy. (Expensive, too, I'm guessing.) So they pharmacy is basically going to cook up some Subutex for you?
> I *hate* the thought of getting sick, tho.
My suggestion would be that you ask for a small prescription for promethazine or something like that, them. FWIW, I had to start out on a sub-therapeutic dose (1/2 mL q4-6h) in order to avoid the nausea.
