Link...thanks very much bud. There is/was (?) a MASSIVE major study going on comparing one of the older antipsycs to the new ones. It took place over a few years, and the numbers where HUGE. And..the reason why it was likely silenced..is because it turned out that at smaller then (used to use) doses, the older drug (perphenezine I think it was) beat out a number of newer drugs in not only side effects, but equaled them in efficacy. What impact this will have is yet to be seen. There are a LOT of typical antipsychotics out there, many which haven't been studied in terms of using along with an antidepressant.

Thanks...
Jay

P.S. I tried Lamictal...HATED it...very dysphoric..+ all other 'mood stabalizers'.
