> Brainbeard are you saying that the fact that luvox potentiates the effects of caffeine is the reason you went off it? How long were you on it and at what dose? Did you also take a benzo? Thanks Phillipa
No, not the reason - I felt it didn't help enough with my OCD. I was on it for six months, mostly at 150mg. I combined it with lorazepam (Ativan) every once in a while, with good results. It worked best though when I combined it with a low dose of clomipramine.
The caffeine interaction is a major reason NOW to be hesitant to start Luvox again.
