So the Ludiomil is turning me into a zombie and I am on only 25 mg. I can't take it.
Desipramine worked in the past and then I started to lactate.
What if I combined the Desipramine with say .5 mg of Mirapex. Other than stopping me from lactating, will the Mirapex have any ill effect on the Desipramine?
Thoughts? Ideas? Hope?
Maxime

For the lactation vitex agnus castus (chasteberry) might help.

if the lactation is b/c of prolactin, maybe Frisium (clobazam) ? It can reverse antipsychotic-induced prolactin increases AND its an anxiolytic.

I've tried that in the past and it didn't work. Thanks for the tip though. :)

What's an anxiolytic?
Maxime.

yup...frisium is a benzo. Its available pretty much everywhere except the US..its primarily for epilepsy, but its also used for tranquilization, kind of like klonopin.

Oh, I don't want to take that! No more benzos for me. I am on klonopin and trying to get off.
I am so fed up. :(

>Hey, Maxie,
There are non-benzo anxiolytics, too. I've taken propranalol, which was a miracle drug for me, and some of the SSRIs are pretty OK anxiolytics. Or low dose APs, Buspar, etc. So, "anxiolytic" isn't the same as "benzo." And anxiolytic can be good...
I'm sorry you're still having so much ickiness. I hope things are a bit better otherwise. (You can email me an update, if you'd like.)
