Hello,
I'm taking 45mg of Remeron and 100mg of Zoloft for depression and anxiety. I noticed som energy boost when I added Zoloft but disappeared after a few days, then I upped the dose to 100mg, same thing, energy boost for a week, then tired again. The same happened when I took Lexapro.
Should I continue increasing Zoloft dosage? I have an idea of adding Wellbutrin. But, I'm currently weaning myself off clonazepam, how safe would it be to add Wellbutrin regarding seizures? I have no history of seizures.Thanks,
Mattias

Hi.

Great question!
Unfortunately, I don't have the answer for you. Yxibow might be able to give you some guidance.
Adding the Wellbutrin to Zoloft is a great idea. You would be taking the "Welloft" cocktail.

It is a good question. What does your doc say did you ask him/her? Phillipa

Good question about Wellbutrin while you are doing a benzo taper. What about other meds that are energizing like provigil, which I take with pristiq, wellbutrin and remeron?
Good luck with your appointment.

>I have used Provigil a lot, and it works very well as long as my depression is not too severe. It's very likely I will start using it again.
