Heroic combos

Posted by X-ray on November 26, 2009, at 10:43:54

Essential psychopharmacology: neuroscientific basis and practical applications
Stephen M. Stahl has singled out 13 successful drug combinations (Heroic combos).

The point is to use safe and rational drug combinations that exploit expected
pharmacological and molecular synergies while even promoting mutual tolerabilities (Stahl).

Heroic combos

1: High dose venlaxafine + mirtazapine =California rocket fuel
2: High dose venlaxafine + NDRI (bupropion)
3: High dose venlaxafine + NRI (selective reboxetine or a nonselective TCA)
4: High dose venlaxafine + stimulant
5: Venlaxafine + nefazodone
6: Mirtazapine + SSRI
7: Mirtazapine + NRI (reboxetine)
8: Mirtazapine + NDRI (bupropion)
9: Mirtazapine + stimulant
10: SSRI + NRI (selective reboxetine)
11: SSRI + NDRI (bupropion)
12: SSRI + stimulant
13: Nefazodone + NDRI (bupropion)

3: nonselective TCA such as desipramine, maprotilene, nortriptyline, or protriptyline
4: stimulants: d-amphetamine, methylphenidate, phentermine, or diethylpropion
4: could also include direct-acting dopamine agonists such as pramipexole
9: stimulants: d-amphetamine, methylphenidate, phentermine, or diethylpropion
9: could also include direct-acting dopamine agonists such as pramipexole
12: stimulants: d-amphetamine, methylphenidate, phentermine, or diethylpropion
12: could also include direct-acting dopamine agonists such as pramipexole
