> I am looking into Celexa. So far, info has been difficult to come by. Combining it with Effexor sounds dangerous. I hope your DR. knows what s/he is doing. I would seek a second opnion before combining two SSRI's. Isn't Effexor working for your? It's supposed to be great!This is Jak. I've been on Serzone for about a year and it doesn't seem to be working so well anymore, so last week my doc kept me on Serzone but added Celexa. He said it's o.k. to combine Serzone and Celexa, which are both SSRIs, although I don't know if certain other combinations, like Effexor and Celexa, or Zoloft and Celexa, for example, could be dangerous. Any pharmacist could answer that question if you can't get a quicker answer from your doc. Also, not all anti-depressants work for everybody. My doc said Serzone and Celexa work on different sites in the Serotonin section of the brain. That's why he said they're good together. After I've used them together for awhile, I'll post my results.
