I started taking zyprexa about 6 weeks ago and really had great results for my anhedonia. Unfortunately it "pooped out" on me after about 4 weeks.
I'm wondering if I would have better luck with mirapex.
Has anyone had a similar experience.
I am also on Effexor XR and Remeron
Thanks.

> 5 mg
You don't think it would be worth raising? By the way, did you have weight gain or other side effects? Are you bipolar?

I am not bipolar, just have depression and anhedonia.
My pdoc raised my dosage to 7.5 but I don't think that helped. She is reluctant to raise it more because of the weight gain problems. I have not gained weight, but it is because I am watching my weight religiously.
I understand that mirapex does not cause weight gain.
