Hi,
This is my first post here. I went to a psychiatrist for the first time today, and he prescribed me Prozac (20mg), Anafranil (25mg), and Klonopin (0.5mg) for my OCD, anxiety, and depression.
I have not started taking them yet, but I just read that it is potentially very dangerous to combine an SSRI with a TCA. The doses are all low, and I'd like to think my pdoc knows what he's doing, but the things I've read worry me greatly. Is this a safe combination at those doses? I have not yet had a chance to share my fears about it with him.
I have read a few anecdotal experiences about success with the two, but in general there seems to be very little on the internet about the combination.
Thanks...
