SLS et al...combining stim with antipsychotic

Posted by Shes_Initforthemoney on March 27, 2012, at 15:41:43

I have pulled some of the research on using a stimulant, in my case Dexedrine Spansules, with antipsychotics. There is a fairly negative or at least neutral opinion on using the two. (My AP is Risperdal.) But, a few articles have mentioned that combining the two may prevent stim tolerance.
I find the combination of my two (1mg of Risperdal and 10mg of Dexedrine) to be the absolute best thing I take first in the morning to alleviate my absolute HATRED of mornings..lol. I have used the two over many years, and it both "chills" me out, and have energy to get through my day.
I know there are caveats and warnings...and I may be lucky because I don't have a tendency towards addiction or substance abuse. I wonder if anyone else here has tried this? What where your results? BTW, I am taking the same dose of Dexedrine I was four years ago when I started with a stimulant added to my medications.
Thanks,
Jay
