I know but old pdoc did want me to try it. I chose not to as I like the option of customizing meds. Any patient comments on google? Phillipa

I used it to treat OCD at doses of 200-300 mg. My doctor was eager to prescribe it. Its main interaction was with coffee-it inhibits metablozation of caffeine, so you could get quite the buzz. I have medicare, so I didn't have to pay for the drug.
The medication was not as stong as I would have liked it to have been. At higher doses it caused a flattening affect.

It was ok. It didn't have a lot of kick and really made me cycle.

Yes, I did! Didn't really work for me.
Viibryd's the only SSRI that has worked for me.

Eric really years ago 250mg worked well for me. I felt good had an unethical pdoc wanted l0 for a celexa trial pulled me off it and never worked the same again after stopping the celexa after a month of feeling like s*hit. Phillipa
