> You say Adrafinil is real cheap. It costs $69.29 for 80 tabs delivered through your door. Less than $1 per tablet. Modafinil costs $126 for 30 x 200 mg delivered. Plus $4 per pill, yes that is expensive!

Ronaldo,

I was on 5mg zyprexa and 20mg prozac the entire time I was also using 300mg - 600mg adrafinil, which was about 3 years. Adrafinil and zyprexa were fine together. It breaks down mostly to modafinil, which is prescribed with many psychiatric meds including antipsychotics.

If you do go this route, please re-post when you are set to go. I have been through adrafinil start-ups, adrafinil withdrawal (minor) and zyprexa withdrawal (major). So maybe we can share some tricks.

I thought of another anti-anhedonia med that worked well for me and I just restarted this week...Kira brand st johns wort. Currently at just 300mg. I have taken it with 5mg zyprexa too as high as 900mg. I might be on my way to a Kira + adrafinil + 2.5mg zyprexa combo, with the hopes of slowing carefully dropping the zyprexa by crumbs at a time over a couple months. Though I buy Kira at Rite-Aid where I live, the same stuff is a prescription medication in Germany.

In the meantime, I wish some good babble folks would show up with some more ideas to consider.
