Hi RC - I've taken Clomipramine (Anafranil) in the past. I don't remember the dosage though. I do remember my side effects were SO much worse with Anafranil than with Zoloft.

I took 100mg and 150mg of Clomipramine. Lots of weight gain (about 50lbs) and other strong side effects like bad constipation. Had to stop because of side effects and on Prozac now. Clomipramine seemed to work the best though. Prozac makes me a bit nauseous, but that has been tapering off ever so slowly.
