> I can't wait to be able to start on this patch. I just took my last day of Lexapro and am on my 1 week washout period now. No SSRI, SNRI or TCA has worked for me yet and I know that I am my pdoc's experiment right now and I'm ok with that. This is at least a class of meds that I haven't tried yet. Anybody know what kind of sinus/cold medicine that I can take once I start this
Hey, sorry, can't help with the sinus med, I myself will have to find something to help with migraines. I finally found Maxalt, it is excellent for me and now I won't be able to take it. My question to you is that I understand you to say you will just need a one week washout. I am dying here on my effexor washout and was told to go two weeks but it seems the literature indicates one week is sufficient. so (finally the question) did your pdoc say one week is good enough? I sure hope so. I am going to have to find out if I need to go a week washout from migraine medicine as i have had to take it every day with this effexor withdrawal. Anyone know about that btw?
Thanks so much,
Donna
