Yes, I am currently on Lamictal 150mgs. and Prozac 20mgs. I was taking Black Cohosh for perimenopausal symptoms and the next day I was in such a state of profound depression, it was scary. No more for me. I wish it would have worked
> I've just experienced a similar effect by taking Black Cohosh. I have been doing very well on Serzone and Lamictal, but changed my birth control pill downward and started getting night sweats each night. So five days ago I began to take Black Cohosh and almost instantly I have succumbed to an agitated depression. I went back off it yesterday; so far no change, still agitated. And night sweats back in force. Did research on black cohosh -- just as with the fish oils, it's supposed to help your mood. Freaky. Any one else out there?
