Question for Ed

Posted by Emily Elizabeth on November 7, 2004, at 8:53:39

Do you have access to Stockley's Drug Interactions? I'm on Lexapro and Desipramine. My pdoc says it seems like my blood plasma levels of the desipramine don't seem to be effected by the Lex. I'm wondering if this is consistent with other findings? Seen anything on it?

Thanks,
EE
