> Now 2 years later, I'm taking more drugs than ever. I used to be just fine on a low dose of prozac (20 mg's)...I started going through a rough time (breaking up with my fiance, horrible new job that I ended up quitting, a bunch of stuff) and the prozac wasn't enough. She added a low dose of an antipsychotic (navane 1mg) and neurotin (now up to 1800 mgs).
Hi Roo,
It sounds like you went from a low Prozac to augmentation. Did your doctor discuss the possibility of first increasing your Prozac dosage? I know several people who did not get full benefit from it until they reached 60mgs. My own pdoc advocates increasing the dose of the present medication first, before augmenting it with a second med.
Jus' wondering.
