Hi Alike Fam! I'm highly considering switching my meds soon, as I recently got genetic testing done and prozac is not great or very likely to work for me. I'm considering switching to pristiq, but I'm thinking I may need a mood stabilizer with it since it can cause hypomania and mania. thoughts? suggestions? experiences?

One user mentioned that they had genetic testing done and switched from Prozac to Pristiq along with a folic acid supplement called "Deplin." Another user suggested asking your doctor about a test called GeneSight to find the best combination of antidepressants for your body. It's important to consult with your psychiatrist about your concerns and discuss potential medication changes based on your genetic testing results and personal needs.
