Comment:
Slow but steady...This combination is an oldschool approach to stability. For myself improving sleep, and reducing the risk of crashes are the biggest indicators of continuing stability.

Comment:
The Zoloft part of this medication gave me a skin crawling and itchy sensation. I had taken Prozac (other part of this med.) without incident. Together I felt extremely itchy, irritated, agitated and listless. I wound up going to a psych. triage and was told I had an allergic reaction and to stop immediately. The NP that prescribed it neglected to read my chart on Zoloft reactions.

This med helped even out my moods, not so much depression now. It does make you sleepy, so I take it at night. Overall symbyax has been a godsend for me.
