Hi Adam,
My name is Anthony, and I was hoping you could help me out with some info. You mentioned having some negative effects while on Serzone.
A few years back I had a very bad adverse reaction to the drug Amoxapine, which I was taking for depression. My nervous system went into some kind of shock, with my legs feeling like rubber and a severe worsening of my depression. I had tried many different meds in the past and never had a bad experience before with AD's.
Anyway,
Three years later while taking a small dose of Risperdal, also for depression, I had another severe and lasting reaction much like the Amoxapine one.
I guess I was wondering if you could tell me whether these two meds are in any way related or if their mechanism of action are similar. You seem to have a grasp of the way these meds can "cause" positive or negative reactions.
Thanks again Adam, or anyone else reading this with any feedback they can provide.Anthony
