hi,
I keep looking at EMSAM and everything I read says not to take it with stimulents or actually most of the other drugs I take - wellbutrin & buspar - though I'm considering going off those
have you had any problems taking it with Adderall?
is it possible that I could use EMSAM with a reduced dose of my focalin XR?
I have ADD in addition to depression & anxiety
thanks
namaste,

> I started regular oral selegeline a year ago, and switched to Emsam as soon as it came out (April? May?) I think I felt better within 2 weeks of starting selegeline, but right now I am wondering if Emsam is enough or if I am setting my sights too high. All those people who say Emsam makes them nervous or gives insomnia? I don't get that- it lowers my blood pressure so much that I use adderall with it. I'd like to raise my dose, but last time I tried, I felt pretty faint due to low blood pressure. Today I visit my doctor and will find out if he thinks raising stimulant along with raising Emsam is a good idea or not.
