> I would consider working the dosage of Lamictal up to 200mg at some point.
Thanks for your input.
I have tried to raise the dosage to 200mg but it gave me anxiety and panic attacks. Lmaictal also makes me tired, which seems to be dose related. Probably because of its inhibiting effect on glutamate, maybe modafinil could conquer this?
> SSRI + Remeron probably makes more sense to start with. The synergistic effect of this combination is more widely recognized.
Zoloft + Remeron is the combo that has worked best ever, that's why it's more appealing now than Wellbutrin + Zoloft. But as you said, swap nortrip with Zoloft and then, if necessary, swap Remeron with Wellbutrin. Maybe I will increase Lamictal dosage a bit, 125 or 150mg.
>I guess you could simply add the Wellbutrin if you don't mind the idea of being a walking pharmacy. It would save time. If the combination were successful, you could at that point try removing the Remeron to see if it were necessary.
That'sa also a good idea, I will se what my pdoc says today.
> By the way, my doctor and his collegues have seen Lamictal + Wellbutrin work wonders for quite a few people.
That sounds good.
> You have chosen drug combinations that have a very good chance of working. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.
Thanks! I will let you know what we decided.
