Hi John,
I'm new to this BB - are you posting from England by any chance? I've never heard of either adrafinil or amisulpride, and like to think of myself as an educated consumer, so there goes that one all to hell! :-]
Anyway, are these both generic? or are there other
names for them? What class of drug are they?Currently, I'm on 300 mg of Effexor XR per day, for about 3 months. Having very big motivational problems, can't do the work I'm supposed to do for two non-profits. On unemployment right now, and worried that when I find a job, won't have enough energy to do it. Feel like a failure... Switched to the Effexor after 4 years on Zoloft, increasing the dose over time, but it just blanked out on me, although the initial reaction was excellent.
Any advice about the A + A combination with the Effexor, if you have any experience or knowledge? Any suggestions about what to read about the Ad or Am? Many many thanks --
Ms B
> Hi Mary,
> I don't think Amisulpride would cause any problems. The reason I say that is because the typical dose for depression, dysthymia, blahness, ranges from 25mg to 100mg a day. I take 33mg. At this low dose side effects are few, if any. The endocrine side effects would probably be an issue in the 300mg to 1200mg range. But at 100mg or less I doubt there would be any problem.

I was reading somewhere that Bromocriptine needs to be taken at high doses for depression. I felt so lousy on it so fast that I just said forget it.
