In reply to meds again. taper lyrica? add nortriptyline?, posted by floatingbridge on February 15, 2011, at 21:13:18

Hi fb,

Have you responded well to nortrip in the past? With another AD or by itself?

> Cymbalta less than 10mg
> Lyrica 75x3 per day
> Dexedrine 60mg
> Xanax xr 1.0
> Xanax .5 as needed (like almost daily)
> Norco 20-30mg (more likely 30 :( )
