ding ding and red flag. just went through hell in similiar situation. drug interactions can be very serious and any time there is a possibility of one, i would be very wary. 2 docs (doc of pharmacology and neuro) contradicting each other does happen. so... you need a third. or even a fourth.

psychiatrist... they are experts in the workings of meds used for anxiety/depression

internal specialist.. they are experts in all chemical balances

the drugs we take are very powerful and can reek havok if not considered with seriousness. there are side effects, interactions, weaning off and on complications yada yada yada,,, that we have GOT to be aware of. what ever you do, please do not take these meds lightly.

you are very wise in questioning this...
