In reply to how's it going babak? is it working yet? (nm), posted by katekite on June 8, 2002, at 10:31:19
Well this rocket fuel thing is not working although it must be said that when I told my doctor that I was taking 60mg Mirtazapine with 375mg of Venlafaxine, he said I could be risking serotonin syndrome. He has reduced the Mirtazapine back to 45mg and Venlafaxine to 75mg and said that if I didn't comply with his prescribed dosage, I would have to find another psychiatrist.
The reduction of Mirtazapine has brought the tinnitus back to its normal level but on 75mg of Venlafaxine my depression and especially headache is a lot worse.
I am loosing faith in Venlafaxine and am thinking of Zyperaxa but I have read a fair amount of bad press about it.
It is either that or ECT which is financially out of the question.
Any other ideas?
