1. Seizures w/Valproic 2. Sleep Disorder w/Benadryl
Now we find ourselves with a seizure-free, full-night sleeping child that has a 5-10 second attention span. I'll let you know how the Strattera works.
you must be the one to sound the alarm! If your doctor dismisses your concerns, you
are wise to get a second opinion...or third, fourth...whatever it takes until you and
your child are satisfied. Most physicians want happy patients and caregivers. They are human and can only make determinations based on the limited information they have when deciding what may work. Many times, it is "trial and error." Until optimal
dosage(s) and choices of medication(s) are reached, the control issues are difficult
for the family as well as the physician. Keep really good records: make a log of your
observations of your child (including teachers' and others' observations) and how the
symptoms relate to the time of day, how long after administration of the medication,
and your own personal rating scale. Your intuition and "red flag alarms" need to be
trusted. The more objective data you can offer to the physician by phone and during
office visits, the faster you will get the results you need. When others comment about the direction you have chosen for your child, whether "natural" or with FDA approved medications, remember that you are the boss and you "know best." Then, give their criticisms the few minutes they deserve and forget about them. They do not walk in your shoes. Any time you or your children experience a side effect from any medication, you are encouraged to call the FDA at: 1-800-FDA-1088.
I was just prescibed Strattera today (haven't started yet) and have been on Lexapro for 3 months now. My doc said there are no interactions because the two drugs affect 2 completely different sections (neurotransmitters- I think she said) of the brain. So to answer your question...no interaction problems
Mixing Lexapro and Strattera can cause a few side effects. The Lexapro can cause the Strattera to build up in the blood more. This causes dry mouth, sleep problems, dizziness, loss of appetite and heart palpitations.
Yes
Yes, Cephalexin and Strattera can be taken together. Cephalexin is just an antibiotic and will have no effect on the Strattera.
Lexapro and Buspar are medications used to treat depression and anxiety. They should never be taken together, since they can flood the brain with serotonin, which can cause seizures and heart problems.
Yes, lyrica and strattera can be taken together. It is a rather speedy combo if I do say so, the lyrica can produce a "rolling" effect. And the strattera enhances that quite a bit. I should know, I'm doing it right now :]
no, very dangerous, great risk of heart attack
Yes of course, i am on 15mg lexapro and 15mg mirt going up to 30mg next week Lexapro is an ssri while mirt is NaSSA Anti Depressent
I have taken them together and survived. 20 mg Lexapro with 5 mg Vicodin and 3 pints of beer. My doctor said the Lexapro and Vicodin are ok together as long as it is supervised and within the recommended dosage. The beer, probably not ok.
I have been on Lexapro for about a month now. My weight is ballooning. I want to come off of it before the withdrawal get to bad. Does the time you are on lexapro coincide with the amount of withdrawl problems? The problem is, I feel great taking the lexapro, but, can't handle the side effect
Can Lexapro and Methadone be taken together on a day to day baices? No one seems to know. my dotor didnt tell me if it was safe
taken with strattera
No medication is effective for dyslexia. Strattera can should only be used for ADD or ADHD.
