Hi, Rick!
I have been taking Wellbutrin SR for 2.5 years -- first as an augment to Remeron, then as a primary with a Remeron augment, then with Remeron and Neurontin augments, then just with Neurontin augment, then with Celexa augment, now with Serzone. Of everything I've taken, WB has helped the most, but it needs help. Serzone has helped WB the most.
I've no real information re' continued marketing of Serzone, just have a feeling (maybe paranoia? or just garden-variety depressive cynicism? :-) ) that maybe it won't be around long because:
1. I read here that few people find it helps;
2. I've read elsewhere doctors' comments that they have few patients that respond;
3. my own doctor says he's had little luck with it; and last but not least:
4. because I'm taking it and it seems to be working.As drug companies continue to come out with new products promising that they will be the solution for all of one's problems, maybe Serzone will be cast aside.
This info in recent posts on liver damage is scary.
That's all. Thanks and Happy New Year.
