Hi.
> This is what I found too, as well as a reference from my PDOC. What are your thoughts... not enough evidence?

The article was published in 2007, so it is hard to know if anyone has tried to reproduce the results.
> Any other perspectives? What about the 5htp3 stimulation?
I really don't know enough about it.
Memantine gave me an energy boost and an improvement in mood during the first week of treatment. Thereafter, it made my depression moderately worse. I really don't have an explanation for this reaction, but I would not exclude from consideration D2 agonism.
