> Yes - I'm currently on 600mg lithium and 75mg venlafaxine. The reason for the low dose of venlafaxine is due to national guidance i've read here in Britain that any dose above 75mg can exacerbate anxiety.
---Maybe it can, but I have anxiety and depression, and I have tried 450 mg venlafaxine. If you add Seroquel in a higher dose first, it may work against anxiety side effects from high-dose venlafaxine.
My psychiatrist has said that Seroquel makes patients endure higher doses of escitalopram (or citalopram).
