In reply to Adding Desipramine to Effexor, posted by angel1 on December 11, 2001, at 6:17:43
I recently (last week) added Desipramine and Adderall to my Celexa. My pdoc and I discussed whether to use Wellbutrin, but I wanted to try something in a different class. I am only recently over a terrible withdrawal syndrome from my last AD that pooped-out.
I don't know whether its the desipramine, or the adderall, or the combination of both with the celexa, but I REALLY FEEL GREAT! I haven't felt this good in over a year.
Anyway, I think desipramine can be safely added to most SSRIs. You can find out for sure on drkoop.com - that site has a great drug interaction page.
Good luck.

> Anyone know if I can take effexor and desipramine together? I would add the desipramine for energy as the effexor makes me quite sleepy. thanks for any info. My doc wants me to add wellbutrin, but I know from previous experience that desipramine give me energy and would rather go with something that works. This is my idea not docs, so I'm not sure if it is safe. Thanks in advance.
