Been on Prozac 60 mg/d for about a year and half. Excellent results until a few months ago, when seemed to plateau; doc added Effexor. I asked him to pull me off due to horrific side effects. Am now just starting Wellbutrin (150 mg/d for 11 days, then to 300 mg/d). I hope this will be a good combo. I wonder, however, why not just stop the Prozac and do only Wellbutrin... but maybe the combo will work well. Here's hoping!
