In fact i have no idea.
I have to be honest with you, and this is why the doctors always says "we take one change in a time", cause i don't know if it's just the methadone that act like an antidepressant or if memantine is too.I can describe my feeling of memantine, and that is that you are like in a "fuzz" and i feel very nurtured when i take it. You know, like being a little in your own bubble?
I can concentrate very easy and nothing feels like it is a pain in the *ss to do (like doing the dishes).
And this is in the evening when i take the memantine and the initial wakefulness of methadone has faded long ago, so yeah i think it is antidepressant.
especially when you take subutex to, i think that would be to a great combo as with methadone, since both is opioids, and memantine seem to synergize or potentiate opioids (i haven't decided which of them there is yet).
And some last words about what i think.
If my OCD is under control, it has to have AD properties to, but i can't be sure.It is off label but not for long (my pdoc is, for real, very famous here in sweden and says that in maybe 1-2 years there will be a lot more indications written in the, what you now call it).
Kind regards, i hope you find what you're looking for.
