Unfortunately, my doctor didn't suggest taking nortriptyline in combination with zoloft. I was taking 200 mg. of zoloft and it didn't do anything for me. That's why I'm moving onto cymbalta. I wonder if we would've added the nortriptyline to the zoloft if it would've made a difference in my response to the zoloft. I guess I'll never know because I'm already weaning off the zoloft before I begin cymbalta. My doctor doesn't seem to be a fan of combining too many medications. I'm currently taking klonopin, remeron, lamictal, and will be taking cymbalta. He seems to limit the number of medications that he puts people on to 4. I don't know if this is a good strategy or not but I'll see what happens with the cymbalta and go from there. In answer to adding abilify to my meds, I did try zyprexa which my doctor said is similar to using abilify. It didn't help.
