Yes. It is perfectly safe to take both Paxil (Paroxitine) and Ativan (Lorezapam) at the same time. i was prescribed both these meds for my anxiety and depression and have been taking them for 6 months.. they work great for GAD :)

I was taking 60mg Cymbalta for 3 weeks to combat my depression and anxiety. The cymbalta was not effective and doc just prescribed Lexapro and Ativan. Answer #2 Lexapro and Ativan is the greatest combination I've been on for my anxiety and panic attacks (and I've been on A LOT of stuff), but to answer your question, yes they can be taken together

Is it safe to take zanax to help with withdrawal from Lexapro?

Xanax can be prescribed by your doctor alongside lexapro and taking them at the same time is okay. I am on Lexapro and take Xanex for occasional bouts of anxiety or panic attacks. However, weening yourself off Lexapro with Xanex is probably not the best idea. If you are having withdrawal from Lexapro you should probably go back on it.


Can you take adderall lexapro lamictal all same time I was perscribed lexapro and lamictal from same dr. then i went to diet dr. he perscribed adderall for weight loss i didnt tell him bout lex lami?

i know you can do lexapro and adderall at the same time since i am personal prescribed to both. I am not sure what lamictal is though. Just try to take the adderall in the morning and take the lexapro at night since they would work against each other and would cause more than needed stess on your liver.


Can you take Ativan with hydrocodone?

I'm not a medical professional, but I have taken Ativan and hydrocodone together many times as they were prescribed to me. My psychiatrist prescribed the Ativan to me and knew I was taking hydrocodone for recent surgeries. I rarely take the two at the same time, but when I have in the past the most I ever took was 20mg of the hydrocodone with 2mg of Ativan. Hope this helps!

Can I take lexapro synthroid multi vitamin for iron fish tablet omege 3 at the same time?

it is safe to be on all these medications at the same time; however, you should take your synthroid by itself, on an empty stomach, at least one hour before a meal to fully absorb it. the others are fine to take all at once. personally, i take my synthroid first thing in the mornng, mvi with breakfast, and lexapro at bedtime.


Should you take Lexapro on an empty stomach?

Lexapro can be taken any time of the day with or without food. This answer straight from the packet instructions.
