We have to get it from out of the country because it just never went through the FDA process to get in, which happens to cost millions of dollars and many years. The manufacturer just never did that. You mentioned it being expensive? But it's not. I pay about $25 for a month supply. It is generically priced, which is another reason it will never be FDA approved. The profit potential does not exist for the manufacturer to do that. And what a shame, because it is a wonderful drug, not just for me, but for many others here who have tried it. Yeah there have been some failures, and that makes me sad, but for the most part it has been a very promising drug to many of us who have been around the SSRI/mood stabilizer merrigoround too many times.

I can tolerate a liar better and not take it to heart. People who lied really bothered me. you know the ones that lie when they do not have to? There is a lot of denial going on out there.
