>Hi Roslynn,
Right now I take 150 of Effexor and 20mg of Prozac. I often adjust those, more if needed, but it is pretty stimulating, so I often come back down. It's been my rock, helping with my depression and anxiety. I also tke 2mg of Risperidone a day.
Any further questions...please let me know.
Best,
Jay
