I have not been on Effexor before so I can't comment on that. Right now I am on 30 mg of lexapro and 7.5 mg of Remeron. Mostly I take the Remeron for insomnia. I have not had any problems with the lexapro except for the insomnia. The Remeron seems to boost the effectiveness of the Lexapro. I hope the switch goes well for you.
> Thanks for your reply. I am currently o Effexor and Remeron. When I first added Remeron I had a complete remission for about six weeks then my depression crept back. Effexor is really difficult to come off but after six years I really want to come off it because since I started Effexor my sex drive has nose dived to zero. I am just trying to develop a strategy and wanted to know if this combination was possible. How has it worked for you? Have you been on Effexor and if so how did you come off?
> I have heard that Lexapro is more effective than Effexor.
