Re: Prozac with Serzone...Dr. Bob, Toby, etc. ???

Serzone has a metabolite called mCPP that, if
combined with a medication that inhibits it's
metabolism (i.e., Luvox (and maybe Prozac))
can increase anxiety. If you're starting with
Serzone first, then just add in Prozac slowly
and carefully and track your anxiety and
depressive symptoms---they should get better; if
they get worse, talk with your psychiatrist.

> > I have recently read one article that claims combining Serzone with Prozac can eliminate the sexual side effects as well as agitation and insomnia. This article stated that you must first start with the Serzone (up to 200 mgs) then add in the Prozac (10mg to 40mg). Does anyone have any experience using these two drugs together (especially for OCD)? If I try this combo, what side effects should I be aware of? It seems like it would be similar to using Prozac, BuSpar and Trazadone together which I did O.K. on exept for the sexual side effects, agitation and headaches. Does anyone think this could be the magical combo I've been looking for or just another experiment that is a waste of time? Please respond with any info. or advice that you think may help me decide. Thanks very much in advance.
> >I think this is a pretty good question, and I've started the first part of this combo by getting started on the Serzone. Please respond back to let me know if there is any kind of negative reaction between these two drugs when used together and all other inquiries about this combo.
