Some docs have. Dr. Jeinke.

"I have also seen a small number of patients who have not responded to large dosages of each of these medications. Some improved on extremely low doses, such as 5-10 mg/day of Prozac or 25 mg/day of Anafranil. These patients have not been carefully studied: and, to my knowledge, these low-dosage responders are not reported in the psychiatric literature. If patients fail to improve with high dosages of the above medications, it is probably worth a trial of a very low dose."
I suggest starting low and then see what happens.
