Best Answer

Yes, depending on bipolar treatments. Adipex-P is the brand name for the appetite reducing drug phentermine. Being bipolar and taking Adipex should not be a problem (conditions that should be cautious about taking Adipex are Heart disease, glaucoma, lung disease, thyroid disease or being pregnant). However, there can be complications between Adipex and certain medications taken to treat Bipolar disorder. There can be bad interactions between Adipex and MAOIs (monoamine oxidase inhibitors) and SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) like Carbex, Marplan, Nardil, Parnate, Elderpryl, paroxetine, citalopram, and escitalopram.

Can you take a Xanax to calm adipex?

Xanax may help calm the effects of adipex but you should never take more xanax than prescribed or more often in an effort to counteract adipex. I take both medications and sometimes taking xanax around bedtime can be helpful but this may or may not work. Try not to take adipex too late in the day.

Can you take adipex while taking Klonopin?

I am prescribed both. Although clonazepam (Klonopin) will weaken the effects of phentermine (Adipex-P) and vice-versa, I have noticed no interactions.


I was just recently put on the Lamictal and clonazepam for bipolar disorder and anxiety and I was wondering if I can take my Adipex a diet aid with those medications?

If you discussed your use of Adipex® with your doctor before he or she prescribed Lamictal and clonazepam, you should be okay. If not, talk to a pharmacist (they are usually more aware of problematic combinations) about drug interactions before starting back on the Adipex®. Complex questions about multiple medications and drug-drug interactions are better directed to a doctor or pharmacist than an internet community. Some combinations can cause permanent organ damage or death.
