Scott, have you heard of any long term efficacy with it? Or use as an add-on? I am back on Xanax, but honestly, it doesn't do what it did. And I'm not increasing my overall benzo use. I am not comfortable with escalation scenarios. I used to think an mao inhibitor would decrese my benzo need, but think that was founded on wishful thinking.
