question for all,

my psychiatrist has recently, within the last few weeks, taken me slowly off a good portion of my medication to switch to new things...

i've tapered off

lithium 600mg
neurontin 2400mg
celexa 80mg
adderall 40mg
clonzapam 1mg
rispedal .05

i am now taking

effexor xr 300mg
lamactal 25mg (for month to check for side effects)
topomax- but insurance has not approved payment
seroquel-25mg (i find it very intense and takes me a good three hours for my head to wake up in the morning)
buprenex

the buprenex has not been as valuable as i would have thought. do you think this could have something to do with the enormous medication switch?

this question is quite stupid, but i didn't think about it at first.

also since i take it IM. i was prescribed a 3ml 25G5/8's, which was small for an IM injection. Do you think it makes a difference in terms of the one's response? I thought the IM size is 22G x 1 1/2 not 25G x 5/8. Would this make a difference?

I was just wondering if this might change one's response to the medication.

thank you

reese
