In reply to anyone have experience with pindolol augmentation?, posted by Crotale on July 5, 2008, at 0:52:04
I tried pindolol+buspirone several years ago. I probably got the idea from this article: http://www.biopsychiatry.com/buspfast.htm, although I think Stahl also wrote about it in one of his psychopharm books. I had been on BuSpar before, so I wasn't really expecting anything, but it did seem to have some effect that couldn't be explained by the BuSpar alone (or perhaps it was just a placebo effect).
If I ever try another SSRI again (which is unlikely), I will try adding pindolol--I think it definitely has some utility in hastening the antidepressant effect, if nothing else.
