Hi Ed !!
yes, i was hoping tofranil would help my depression, i feel as though prozac has lost it's effectivenes in that regard, but it still helps ocd!! thank you so much for telling me about the prozac/tofranil interaction, i just read up on it, you are so right!!!
my doctor wanted me up to 100 mgs. tofranil by end of the month, while maintaining prozac 20 mgs., i think he may be misguided!! [to say the least!!]
i may just stick with prozac for now, i read that prozac can block tofranils excretion, and give you a blood level 3 times as high, i don't need that for sure!!! thanks again ed for bringing this to my attention...john
