What supplements should patient take when withdrawing from SSRI's?
There's no use of supplements. In order to avoid withdrawal syndrome, you should taper off the SSRI gradually, usually within a month.
Can you take lamictal and Paxil together?
Yes. Lamictal is a mood stabilizer and paxil is an ssri (anti-depressant). Lamactil is often prescribed with SSRI's to "boost" the effect and/or work on areas that the SSRI does not tap. Obviously, an MD/Psych is the best person to talk to about drug interactions, not the internet.

Yes - it is a very common side effect of SSRI medication.
Can you take a ssri and tricyclic together?
Generally doctors avoid SSRI and TCA combinations. Safer approaches are tried first, as switching to different agents, increasing dosages, SNRIs (Effexor and Cymbalta), combinations of SSRI and Wellbutrin, Remeron or buspirone (Buspar) or augmentation of the SSRI with modafinil (US: Provigil). Well, if these didn't help you, you can try SSRI + TCA but expect some side effects that may be irritating. Most common from this combination should be dry mouth, constipation, weight gain, and of course sexual side effects. If you have especially high anxiety, your doctor most certainly will prefer the use of SSRI + TCA from some of the above solutions.
What lab test should be taken when using SSRI's?
Patients don't do lab tests before take an SSRI. If you have liver of renal low functioning, your doctor may decrease dosage. This is the common case in elderly or small children.
Is depakote a SSRI?
no
Mix hydrocodone and SSRI?
It is perfectly safe to take Selective Serotonin Re-uptake Inhibitors with hydrocodone. They do not interact or effect one another. SSRI's only affect the serotonin levels in your brain, hydrocodone blocks nerve receptors, which helps with pain. So any SSRI anti-depressant is safe to take with hydrocodone. Edit: I wouldn't say it is perfectly safe. Serotonin Syndrome can happen and isn't something you just brush off
