My suggestion is to essentially tomorrow:
*discontinue Brintellix 20mg.
*prescribption of EMSAM transdermal patch at 6mg. (0.25mg./hr.)
*prescription of Mirapex ER (if your insurance has a QDD limit on the ER; then use IR): #90 0.375mg. This allows you to be trialing a very effective 2.25mg. daily dosage or over-dosage on Days 21-30.
*initiate a low-dose benzodiazepine (e.g., Valium or Klonopin) to help with titration.
Good luck! Keep me posted.
