In reply to Lexapro w/ Protriptyline, posted by Bryn B. on May 9, 2012, at 8:44:53
Hi Bryn .. When I took lexapro, I found desipramine to be extremely effective. Lexapro stoned me as bad as an antipsychotic. By itself, It was a nightmare.
Desipramine was actually a better AD than lexapro... very stimulating, and pretty clean, also. I loved it. It is also good for pain.
So if the vivactil doesn't work out, this may be a good fall back. Good luck!
