Hi Bob.
> Btw Scott... A link you posted a little while back had info about a study done with Minocycline as well as aspirin. Have you ever mixed aspirin with the Minocycline? Have you ever tried aspirin in your med combo in any way as a psychiatric treatment?
I have been taking aspirin 81 mg/day for a few years now for the prevention of heart disease. It has had no effect on my depressive disorder as far as I can tell. The minocycline/aspirin treatment study is interesting, but I am not convinced that it is the anti-inflammatory properties of minocycline that is most responsible for its acute antidepressant effect. I would look more closely at its modulation of glutamate activity. In the long-term, anti-inflammatory effects may play a role. I really don't know.
