In reply to New to Serzone in combo with Multiple Medications, posted by Jefferson on September 17, 2003, at 22:38:31
I tried Serzone a while back and I had the same experience. I actually went off of it but a family member stuck through the initial nastiness and it worked eventually, although not perfectly, but it felt normal after a week or so.
I had the same thing happen on effexor. I felt really out of it, queasy, eyes dialated, could hardly talk. All of these things subsided and the meds felt more normal after a few days. However I ended up going off of it because I slept all the time and gained 25 lbs. Thats neither here nor there.
As far as the combinations, I think a lot of people on this board are doing combinations bc a lot of us have difficult times with standard medications.
However, it does sound like you are on a lot of stuff. If it is working then I wouldnt worry, but if you are feeling worse then maybe its time to get a second opinion. You may want one anyway.
Is there a good University with psych dept near you? Try calling there.
Hang in there, you will get through all of this
