In reply to Anyone explain why doc wants me on AD's for 2 year, posted by Jaynee on April 2, 2002, at 11:46:10
Your doc wants you on a SSRI for an extended period of time because some believe that it takes that long for your receptors to permanently "adjust" to the presense of the drug (up/downregulation)...and some docs want patients on medication for up to one year *after* they are feeling well.
