It is impossible to make blanket statements like that. Combining meds CAN and DOES work for many. I have been on many different combinations of AD's. You need to have a doc who knows what they are doing, you have to educate yourself as to the profiles, etc of the drugs, and you need to be methodical when adding a new one or discontinuing an old one.
And this really isnt specific to AD's - you have to be careful when combing meds of all types.
