Combining Lexapro (escitalopram), an SSRI used for depression and anxiety, with Distaril (doxepin), a sedating antihistamine often used for sleep, should only be done under a doctor's guidance. Both medications can affect serotonin levels, and their interaction may increase the risk of side effects, including sedation. It’s essential to consult a healthcare professional to evaluate the safety and appropriateness of this combination for your specific situation.

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.

No you cannot. Taking different drugs at once is dangerous and not recommended. By the way, Lexapro is better.
