Detailed Answer:
Thank you for that information.

This medication regimen seems appropriate for you. Prozac augmented with Wellbutrin is a common strategy for depression. Trazodone at that dosage is effective for insomnia, and Provigil can be effective for energy during the day. I don't see any major problems with this medication regimen.
