In reply to Serzone ER Research Study, posted by Darren on April 11, 2000, at 10:50:37
> Hello... I am in the first weeks of a 44 week (first 8 weeks are double-blind)research study of Serzone ER. This study is sponsered by B M Squibb and is very extensive. The Doctors and myself are sure that I am not in the Placebo group based on certain side effects. I would like to talk to anyone that has insight and experience with Serzone IR or is curious about this study.
> Thanks in advance!
HiI am very interested in this study. I was on Serzone for 8 months and felt as though I was on a rollercoaster!! At first my Dr. prescribed 350mg. I started out with small dosages and worked my way up. Eventually I needed to take 600mg a day. The serzone seemed somewhat effect as long as I was increasing or going up in dosage. Once I leveled off it's effectiveness wore off and my depression symptoms came back to haunt me. My Dr. tried toward the end to augment the Serzone with Wellbutrin. I did not tolerate the Wellbutrin at all - bad side effects (hallucinated). Anyway I am now 2 months into Zoloft at 150mg a day and I feel fantastic. I never felt this good consistently on Serzone. I hope this isn't too long for you, but it is good to know there is a study - I am interested - please let me know how I can find out more information!! Thank-you!
