Alright here we go. I'm hoping to get a 3rd class medical, never been to see an AME. I started taking an approved SSRI several years ago and stopped taking it about 6 months ago. Here's where it gets dicey.
Not long after I started taking the SSRI, I also took another medication (supposed to "help" the SSRI). I honestly don't remember what it was without getting a copy of my records. It may have even been a sample packet and not a prescription. I took it for approximately a month.
Here's what worries me. On the page about SSRI SI on the FAA website it reads: the applicant does not have symptoms or a history of..... .....Multi-agent drug protocol use (prior use of other psychiatric drugs in conjunction with SSRIs.). Is my situation considered multi agent drug protocol?
I'm not trying to hide anything but I'm confused. Are those requirements ONLY for the SSRI SI and not pertinent to me since I'm no longer taking the SSRI? Or should I throw in my towel? Can anyone enlighten me here?
