Re: 5 days in with another antidepressant: Moclobemide / Manerix
Moclobemide is one of the faster acting drugs - it takes around 2 weeks for the effects to show. Increased anxiety is usual after around 5 days so I would keep taking it and try to keep your CNS as relaxed as possible.
I've never tried it but it seems to have an exceptionally low incidence of side effects. To be honest I'm surprised that its not prescribed as a first line treatment for depression and anxiety. It also doesn't come with the nasty withdrawal effects and sexual dysfunction that are par for the course with SSRIs.
