I was put on Pristiq 50 mg. back in May. It didn't do anything for me so the doc added zyprexa starting at 2.5 mg. increasing to 10 mg. That didn't work either so he upped the Pristiq to 100 mg. I've been at this dose for about 17 days and still no response. Is 17 days a long enough trial to see if there will be a response? If the pristiq isn't going to work, I'd like to move on though I don't know what my options will be. Prozac pooped out on me, lexapro didn't work, and now it seems pristiq isn't working. Is it still worthwhile to try the other SSRI's or cymbalta? Or does this mean I'll have to go the route of a tricyclic or MAOI?
