I thought of a really cool medication combination. Now brace yourself, and don't dismiss the idea too quickly
Remeron + Pindolol
Ok, so we know that remeron increase serotonin release via alpha-2 antagonism. Well adding pindolol will increase this further via 5-ht1a autoreceptor antagonism.
But the synergy doesn't end there. I read an about a lady that found beta blockers very good for reducing rem-rage. So you might be able to simutainiously increase the AD effecacy while reducing the anger side effect. All while taking a drug that has no effect on neurotransmitter uptake.
Pindolol augmentation of SSRI's is messy, but I think that adding it to remeron would provide a cleaner augmentation.
