Hi everyone,
Thanks to all who answered my question about this med. Very helpful!
I might have a hard time convincing my pdoc to put me on clomipramine--I just went through a trial of protriptyline and I had major problems with it. (dizziness, confusion, nervous, edgy)
Does anyone know if you can combine clomipramine with prozac?
Thank you,
Roslynn
