i'm on Lexapro 40mg and Anafranil 25mg, is this amount safe to take together? i'm worried about that serotonin syndrome

Hi

I would be worried too! Both are potent SRIs (despite being a tricyclic, clomipramine's main action is serotonin reuptake inhibition). Who chose this combo? Is it helping? Just watch the dose, please.

Teck.

I couldn't even tolerate 5mg of lexapro. Did you taper up? Fondly, Phillipa
