Sometimes it increases panic attacks during hangovers. You can get very drunk with just a few drinks. You may completely passed out.
It's best not to drink while taking citalopram, but if you do, limit the number of drinks to one or two glasses of wine or one or two beers. Avoid hard liqueur completely. Stay home when consuming alcohol.
Well I did ok when I was drinking with it. I had about 6 beers on a night out on the town. But, the next day I felt confused, disoriented and generally lethargic. So, I wouldn't recommend drinking with that one.
Yes; drinking alcohol with Paxil will not cause any immediate life-threatening effects. However, depressed patients should avoid taking depressants (like alcohol) due to it being counterproductive to overcoming depression.
There will be no effect from the antidepressant. Alcphol causes depression.
possible death
Xanax, yes, Lexapro, no
You should not take Xanax and alcohol together. You never want to drink alcohol while taking medication, specially these types of medications.
Lexapro and Xanax are fine to take together. I will, however, give you the "Xanax Lecture."There is only one way to CURE anxiety. That is by therapy! I urge you to find a good therapist who can teach you healthy ways to deal with anxiety and stress. This way, you can get rid of the habit-forming tranquilizers and get back to living!
100 more xanax lol
Mixing sedating drugs such as Ambien with alcohol can be very dangerous. The nervous system slows down causing respiratory depression which, with higher doses, can be lethal. Depending on how Lexapro affects you, it could causes the same overly sedating reaction when mixed with alcohol. To be wise mix neither, but the Ambien/alcohol combination is quite a bit more risky than Lexapro and alcohol.
Great night that could be your last....Xanax and jack will make you feel 10ft tall and bullet proof
Xanax and Prozac have a moderate Interaction, Prozac Inhibits The Metabolism of Xanax, So Caution Should Be Used As It Can Increase The Sedation and other effects of Xanax, Prozac can increase Xanax's half-life by 17% Reduce's Clearance and Potentate's Xanax's Sedating Effects. Talk With A Pharmacist or Doctor.. i just took 4mg's of xanax with 20mg of Prozac and i had no increased sedation... in fact i found a decrese in sedation. so just be careful. everyone is different. and the person who wrote the previous answer is an idiot and should have done his reserch. Drugs.com has a Drug Interaction Checker. and that's where i get all my information. it is a doctor certified website. you can check pills and alot more. might want to check it out. GOODLUCK AND BE SAFE!
I take lexapro 10 mg and I also take the offbrand of Zyrtec d, the Walgreen's brand, and I haven't had any problems, I am not on xanax though, but I have tooken it before just not on a daily basis.
Yes. My girlfriend was prescribed both Lexapro and Xanax for sporadic severe anxiety and panic attacks resulting from a traumatic experience that had occured two years prior. She has been on it for about four weeks but the side-effects (nausea, constant drowsiness, impaired sex drive, 'spacing out') have become severe enough that she consulted her doctor was instructed to ditch the Xanax and take half of her Lexapro dosage. It appears that taking both would only be beneficial if the symptoms they are prescribed to cure are long-term and the patient fully understands the possible side-effects of the medication.Yes, the two drugs are not mutually exclusive. However, Xanax (aprazolam) being a temporary tranquilizer, is typically not prescribed or intended for long stretches of time. Tolerance and withdrawl/habit forming effects being part of the reason. Xanax has a half life of roughly 12 hours, which makes it ideal for dealing with bouts of isolated anxiety. Certain side effects can be exacerbated with the Xanax such as upset stomach, drowsiness and decreased libido but this you already know. In short, since I can't and won't tell you what to do, talk to your doctor and tell him or her everything.My Doctor prescribed both to me years ago. I was on Lexapro and Xanax 2mg and I'm fine.
Xanax or alprazolam is a short-term benzodiazepine tranquilizer. It is used to relieve your worst anxiety symptoms until your lexapro and therapy take effect. The only cure for anxiety is medication and therapy. People who use a combination of therapy and antidepressants frequently get to the point where they can stop taking the medication altogether.
Lexapro is a medication that you take every day as prescribed by your doctor. Xanax is a medication used when you feel anxiety.
Answer:It is perfectly fine to take Lexapro and Ativan. It is a very common combination of medications for people to take. Ativan is approved for anxiety and for anxiety associated with depression. Only Ativan and Xanax are specifically indicated for use with a depressive disorder. Ativan is also commonly used for 2-6 weeks as Lexapro is started because Ativan can reduce the initial side effects Lexapro can cause and Ativan will provide immediate relief of anxiety.
