In reply to Anyone taking Effexor with Ativan?, posted by Crazy T on January 7, 2004, at 23:47:55
> Hi. I just started taking Effexor XR (first 37.5 mg, then 75). It's been three weeks, and I HAVE to take Ativan with it or I am manic. This bothers the hell out of me b/c I don't want to form an addiction to Ativan, and frankly, it barely works, so usually I take more than two to even relax. What should I do?
I don't think Ativan would be a good choice for manic periods. Zyprexa is used more commonly ( In my very limited knowledge ).
