> I've tried too many meds in the last 16 yrs. Pretty much everything except for maoi or tac.You haven't tried MAOI and TCA in over 16 years of treatment? Who is responsible for making the decision to avoid these drugs and why? That's like excluding penicillin from consideration for the treatment of syphilis. It is an old drug, but extremely effective. Like syphilis, depression often gets worse if left untreated.
MAOI and TCA are more toxic in overdose than are other antidepressants. Is suicide a concern?
