Hi - before my PD diagnosis I was taking Pristiq for depression, which I've fought for years. But with the diagnosis and since beginning Azilect back in Oct 2015 (and now Miraprex ER too) I stopped taking it. The warnings about Azilect and antidepressants are strong and the info out there is confusing, but I need to do something since I have recently gone into a tailspin. I'm hoping there is something the Psychiatrist, Neurologist and Pharmacist can agree on!
I encourage you to ask Dr. Michael Okun. "Ask A Doctor" through National Parkinson's Foundation is a wonderful online resource PwP's.

If he doesn't satisfy your answer, let me know. I can connect you with another.
I also take Azilect and a Lexapro generic and have had no problems.
As a just mentioned to someone else, I have been taking 150 mg of Effexor for about 12 years now. Anxiety is one of the main symptoms I have from the PD. I'd hate to see what I'd be like without the Effexor.
i take azielcta nd lexapro and hve hqd no problems.
