In reply to Tramadol for TRD., posted by roscopeeco on December 30, 2010, at 15:33:50
From all the anecdotal evidence I have seen on the web, I come to these conclusions:
* tramadol appears to be a magnificent directly acting antidepressant for a lot of people
* this effect seems to dissipate with time, probably because of tolerance
* when the drug has stopped working, people want to stop taking it, to find that it has a withdrawal syndrome from hell.
Current meds: clomipramine 225mg, fluvoxamine (Luvox) 50mg, dexamphetamine 5-10mg, bethanechol 20-60mg. As needed/wanted: oxazepam 5-20mg.
