The 'Cleanest' medication, I found over the years: 1. Wellbutrin...available as a generic...to boost dopamine. 2. Lexapro...use in small doses, to boost seratonin. 3. Clonazapam...has a long half life, and is a tranquilizer, that can be used to sleep, and reduce anxiety... I found that zanax was one of the worst ones to take... I would get another doctor. R.G.
