In reply to How Can a Pdoc Rx a med Above the Drug co's Max?, posted by Phillipa on December 9, 2007, at 12:27:47
> Seems a lot of pdocs are prescribing psych meds above the maximum doseage reccomended by the drug company that developed the med. Is this safe and legal? Just a question . Phillipa and why?
If my pdocs had not prescribed over the recommended maximum, I never would have had a response to ANY med.
I was on 100 mg of Prozac, 90 mg of Parnate and now 250 of Seroquel. It's not illegal and it is safe. Everyone metabolizes meds differently. Of course you should be on the least amount of meds as possible.
