> I just wanted to mention Buspar, because my pdoc said it is mainly an augmenting drug. Supposedly works very well with SSRI's. I didn't fare too well on it due to SE's, but I was not on any AD. There have been several posts on the positive effects of it as an augmenting med.
Hi Elsie,
Sorry to hear that your Buspar trial didn't go well. THe fact that I've done well on Buspar is apparently a rare thing. I'm not using it to augment an SSRI, but a TCA. At this point I'm not sure which med is 'augmenting' which; I'm on 30 mg Buspar and 40mg nortriptyline, but that dose of nortrip is below the recommended minimum dose of 50 mg due to s/e. I must have a perverse nervous system or something.
