75 mg of clomipramine alone was quite effective for me for getting rid of rumination. But it did take a while to kick in--4-6 weeks I'd say.
When I tried combining lexapro and clomipramine together, they had both already pooped out on me--so I'm not a good barometer for the combo's effectiveness.
When my pdoc wrote out the prescription, I don't think he even mentioned a worry about serotonin syndrome, and he was a very careful guy.
I like the idea of luvox and clomipramine...maybe that would be a good plan. Luvox it seems is more calming than lexapro. WIth 200mg, I am not surprised it feels hellish.
