Anyone still use Stablon on the boards? I've tried it about 2 weeks (12.5 3x a day) and it was interesting because it feels different than the standard antidepressants. There is some anti-depressant/anti-anxiety effect, just I'm not sure if it is as strong as a traditional SSRI. The 3x a day dosing is really a pain because there is mood swings missing or changing dosing schedules. Plus it's expensive since it's not available in the U.S.. Any possibility that a pharm company will create an 'XL' version and possibly higher dosages? The sexual and weight changes were milder than other ADs though.

I donīt think so. Why the higher dose?. 3 times per day is not a problem, you eat more than 3 times per day, so there are many things you do 3 times per day, why not take a pill 3 times per day :)
The real problem is price and availability.
>The sexual and weight changes
?. I did not feel any in more tahn 2 weeks and I doubt there are any in the long term.
