I'm having some stimulant poop-out from dexedrine - which pisses me off and scares me because stimulants have been the only thing to help keep my head above water - So - I guess I am hoping (even tho it won't happen) that my starting Prozac in a couple days will somehow magically help the Dexedrine to work better. I was on Desipramine - which I think is supposed to increase the amount of Dexedrine and/or augment it - and it didn't really do any of that.
So, someone please tell me that Prozac will augment the dexedrine and visa-versa? Or at least there's a .0000005 % chance it will. I desparately need some good news......because hope is running dry.............
Thanks
Jerry

> JerryJerry,
I think you might find it works rather well. One of the regular posters here (Phil) takes Celexa and Adderall together. Also, when I was trying out dexedrine a while back I found that it allowed me to drastically reduce the Celexa (I was taking at the time) without any withdrawal.
good luck,
Mitch
