Has Anyone Changed Drugs By Coming Off One And Going On The New One At The Same Time.

My Cipralex is not working so my doctor is putting me on Luvox. He is lowering the dose of Cipralex and adding Luvox at the same time. Please let me know if anyone has done this. I never heard of it before.

I've never heard of these meds either, but I have switched while on one and switched to another under the doctors approval.

Thank you to Dderrington, David, Jon and Katrina for answering my question. I do agree with you David. - the doctor knows what is best. I will trust him.
