Re: tricyclics and SSRIs
Hi Liz, my psychiatrist says you need too weeks between a SSRI and a tricyclic.
I have just changed from Setraline (SSRI) to Prothiaden (tricyclic) and had to take a two week break in between. Tricyclics do have side effects for the first two or three weeks of use but I have found them to be more effective than SSRIs for depression. Luckily I have never suffered too much from drug side effects but I do know other people can be very sensitive to drugs.
Take care
