switching from paxil to prozac for bulimia

Posted by Sergios on April 24, 2001, at 9:24:12

My bulimia has gotten much worse in the last months. My doctor is slowly switching me to prozac. I will take 20mg of prozac + 30 of paxil for 7 days, then the next 7 days 40mg prozac+20mg paxil, next 7 60mg prozac and 10mg paxil and then just withdraw from paxil and keep the 60mg prozac.
Questions: Is it dangerous to take both meds for so long? I am also on zyprexa (F1), oxprenolol, xanax, trazodone for sleep, etc.
Has high dose prozac helped somebody with long-term bulimia?

F1: zyprexa has nothing to do with my bulimia, this has started before. I suspect it was the paxil that triggered it.
