Be aware though that any time two serotonergic meds are combined that care must be taken by starting low and slow to avoid any risk of serotonin syndrome. Start low and go slow and you should have no problem.I agree with John on this. You might consider trying a combination with Withania somniferum, an Ayurvedic (spelling?) treatment for depression. It's also known by the name Ashwagandha.
