Is anyone here on Arimidex and antidepressants or Lamotrigine?

Thanks for your explanations!

I haven't started Arimidex yet cause I just started Lamotrigine and I don't want to mix them now. This wouldn't be smart cause in case I got side effects I couldn't tell
what causes it.

Lamotrigine is a drug which you have to titrate totally slowly which sucks. It will take months until I even reach my targeted dose!

But at least at the moment I don't want to introduce Arimidex. I will wait bit until I feel like Lamotrigine doesn't cause any problems.

----

But when I start Arimidex, could I also start with a smaller dose and see if this also works? Or is 0.25mg the minium dose?

And do you have to take it every 3 days? Why every 3 days? Is this because of the halflife of the drug?

Yes you can use a small dose if u want
Yes on the half life
 
Okay, then I know I have to take it every 3 days.

Personally I'd like to try an as small dose as possible and see if it does something, however the problem is that I don't know if it's even possible to get a smaller dose that 0.25mg which is 1/4 of
a pill. I mean I cannot divide a pill into 8 parts and get 0.125mg. This will not be possible. And scraping off tiny bits with a knife would deliver varying doses. Would this matter? I mean should the
dose be the same all the time?
 
The dose should be a close as possible to the same
Youre dealing with your hormones here so you always want to keep them as level as possible

In the future id suggest looking for an oral liquid rather then the pills
 
Does arimidex also come as liquid? I never seen anything like this.

You won't see it as a liquid if you're prescribed it legitimately. Mike is referring to what us bodybuilders often find on the black market ;)
 
Hey there. I'm on both, (seizures) and when I'm bridging at 200mg of test a week, I keep a very low dose of arimidex going twice a week at. 25. I find this works best with little to no interactions. If I go higher than that, for some reason I can't get a hard on. As soon as I get it lower it vanishes in an instant. As far as other side effects, there's none, at least for me.
 
Hi,
thanks for your comments. You guys have been a great help.

I haven't started arimidex yet. I first wanted to increase my Lamotrigine dose. I am at 60mg now. Titrating is really slow cause I don't want to increase too fast. I'm scared of steve johnson syndrome.

Anyway, once I start with Arimidex what exactly should I look for as indication that it "does something"? Should I for example start to look more masculine?
I have fat storages on the side of the hips which usually only occurs in women and it looks really bad. Years ago I wanted to get rid of it with dieting but this fat is really stubborn!
I was already totally thin and looked like a sceleton and this fat was still there.
Do you think if I lower my E2 it might slowly go away?

Another problem is I just started Effexor. It's ridiculous. I started yesterday with 75mg and I already can't orgasm anymore! I watched porn and tried to jack off and even getting an erection
was totally hard. This is really bad and 75mg is only the starting dose. I need to go much higher to see if it works. But then I can forget about erections and jacking off. :(

And then I also cannot tell if Arimidex improves erections if I can't get erections anymore.
 
As always the Arimidex come as powder, but you can make it into liquid form.
