Hi link!
> I think this is a very good idea. Taking a TCA would replace much of the action of zoloft + remeron in one pill. Plus, lithium augmentation of TCA's is more documented than with SSRI's.
Yes, i think so too. My own doctor has a vacation until the 10th.. aargh! So i'll have to sit and wait and do nothing. I did talk to another doctor but she wouldn't change my medication..
> Nortryptaline has been used extensivly with lithium, but it may not be as good on anxiety as a more mixed TCA. I would recomend clomipramine (2a blocade), or perhaps amitryptaline (2a blockade)I can imagine that nortrip could be bad for anxiety. Clomipramine gave me severe sexual s/e. Amitrip seems to be somewhere between those two, maybe the best choice.
Kind regards,
Mattias
