> I thought a patent lasted 17 years (kind of a weird number) because I could swear that the pharmacist told me that when Klonopin (clonazepam) finally went generic a number of years ago
They used to last for 17 years from the approval of the patent. They now last for 20 years from the filing of the patent. Probably more info than you wanted.
> Sorry to hear that Celexa pooped out on you after only 2 years. Paxil pooped out on me after about 11 or so. What, if any, a-d are you on now?
I'm on Wellbutrin and just started Effexor. We added Wellbutrin to Celexa for a while, it helped some, got me out of the deep pit but it was clear that celexa just was doing nothing, so I went off it and for a few weeks just did Wellbutrin. Hoping Effexor works and I can only take that. The fact that Celexa is working after Paxil pooped out gives me hope that Effexor will work for me. Another SSRI to replace one that pooped out.
May I ask, how bad was the poop out? Meaning, how far down did you go?
Also, how long b/t Celexa and Paxil? Did you try anything in between?
