Sam-e with a TCA

Posted by TamaraJ on May 7, 2005, at 17:34:37

Has anybody taken Sam-e while they were taking a TCA? Or, does anyone see any reason why one should not take sam-e with a TCA? I am currently taking 75mg of nortriptyline and was thinking of perhaps trying a low dose of sam-e for augmentation.

Thanks so much.

Tamara

There are no obvious contraindications that I can think of. Just use the "start low, go slow" maxim, and you should be fine.

Thanks so much, Larry. I actually found 100mg capsules, so I will indeed be starting low LOL.

Take care,

Tamara
