Just to let you know, my pdoc had me taking Clomipramine (50 - 75 mg) concurrently with Celexa (20 mg). I seem to recall someone responding to me when I first started that Clomipramine while continuing with the Celexa that serotonin syndrome was not as much of a concern because Clomipramine has a mechanism that helps prevent such an occurence. I wish I could find the thread. I will have another look. So, maybe combining low dose Clomipramine with low dose Luvox might be effective and plausible. I unfortunately had to stop Clomipramine because it severely aggravated my already low blood pressure, and, at the dose I was able to tolerate, it really wasn't much more effective for me than a SSRI.
Wishing you all the best,
Tamara
