Switching from EFFEXOR back to DESIPRAMINE

Posted by Jessica1977 on September 19, 2002, at 12:19:20


Hi,
I've been lurking a long time. This is my first post here.

I was diag'ed with ADD. Comorbid social anxiety and slight depression too.

The only thing that has worked out of the dozens of things I've tried was desipramine. Took that back in college for a month. Worked GREAT.

I've been on Effexor xr for a few months. That is great for the anxiety and the depression, but did nothing for the ADD.

So my question: How should I go about switching from Effexor back to desipramine? I know I should taper the Effexor and ramp up the desip.

Should I wait til I'm off the Effexor entirely before I start the desip, or can I take a small dose of Desip while backing off the Effexor?

Thanks!
Jessie
