I consulted the Physician's Desk Reference to find my answer. I found no results for "brentellex," but I did find results for the drug "brintellix." If this is not the right drug, then please disregard my answer. According to the side effects section of the article, it states that "Nausea was the most common adverse reaction and its frequency was dose-related (Table 2). It was usually considered mild or moderate in intensity and the median duration was 2 weeks. Nausea was more common in females than males. Nausea most commonly occurred in the first week of BRINTELLIX treatment with 15 to 20% of patients experiencing nausea after 1 to 2 days of treatment. Approximately 10% of patients taking BRINTELLIX 10 mg/day to 20 mg/day had nausea at the end of the 6 to 8 week placebo-controlled studies." If you search for "brintellix" on this site, you will find this section located under section 6.1: "Adverse side effects" on the page's table of contents. This information is not to be taken in replacement of consulting your doctor. I would recommend talking to your doctor for further answers.

Can you take Lexapro and coumadin?

My doctor prescribed 10 mg of Lexapro to me while I was taking 4mg of Coumadin daily. Not sure if it makes a difference but I am only on Coumadin for another 3 months and have been taking Lexapro for about a month. So I would imagine it is safe as long as you continue to have your INR levels monitored. But you may want to check with your dr especially if you need to be on Coumadin long-term or even forever in addition to the Lexapro.
