Generally speaking, these drugs are not used together. Zoloft affects a chemical in the body called serotonin. Effexor affects serotonin, but also norepinephrine. Occasionally, a specialist (psychiatrist) may prescribe the combo under close supervision in an attempt to perfectly tweak the ratio of these two chemicals. This is rare, however, and patients should only use the combination if specifically instructed to do so. Side effects of the two drugs are significantly overlapping. The combination may also lead to a rare but serious condition known as serotonin syndrome, which much be monitored for by the patient and prescriber.
Zoloft
It is not recommended to smoke weed while taking Zoloft or any other medication without consulting a healthcare provider. Mixing marijuana with Zoloft can increase the risk of side effects or interactions, and may impact your overall mental and physical health.
Common side effects of Xanax (alprazolam) 5 mg can include drowsiness, dizziness, and nausea. Common side effects of Zoloft (sertraline) 100 mg can include nausea, diarrhea, and headache. It's important to discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider.
It all depends on certain factors such as is it prescribed? how much of each you are taking? and most important are you tolerant to the medications. someone who isn't used to suboxone and xanax can have life threatening consequences if taken together or even by them selves. Ive been on suboxone for 2 years and wellbutrin for 2 months. i will take .5 mg of xanax here and there if i cant sleep. I am tolerant to the suboxone and have taken benzos i.e "xanax in the past. the combination of the 3 if not taken at the same time is fine if you have tolerance to the suboxone and the xanax. if your a noob and haven't taken these meds that much then never ever mix them it could kill you because both are respiratory depressants which will stop your breathing if the person is not used to the medications. Talk to your Dr. if you have one thats always the best advice.
The interaction of two or more persons or organizations directed toward a common goal which is mutually beneficial. An act or instance of working or acting together for a common purpose or benefit, i.e., joint action. (From Random House Dictionary Unabridged, 2d ed)
effexor and zoloft they are all (ssri) drugs wellbutrin is not it works in a different way
zoloft
Yes, Sotacor (Sotalol) and Effexor might be taken together if both are required and prescribed for you.
no
yes, but it's better to take your Zoloft in the morning.
Effexor
This is a topic that should be discussed with a doctor. Garcinia Cambogia, often used for weight loss, is thought to affect serotonin levels in the brain. As serotonin is also the target of Zoloft, it is not recommended that the two be taken together.
Yes, both drugs can be taken together if both are required and prescribed for you.
You need to talk to your doctor who will probably say to taper down your Effexor.You may be able to take Zoloft at the same time since you are on a lower dosage of the Effexor already.Eventually you will be Effexor free and hopefully you won't have to go through Effexor withdrawl like most people.
how long does the effexor withdrawl symptoms disappear after you stop taking it, i am taking zoloft now but i am having effexor symptoms
Maybe zoloft was not doing the expected effect; or their side effects are too strong. Also he could take this decision because effexor XR acts over serotonine AND norepinephrine; is more activating and "energyzing" than zoloft. Zoloft is the gold standard antiperessant in axious-depressive patients, OCD, social phobia...anxious disorders in general
I was wondering if I could take my multivitamin and zoloft at the same time. I'm worried about the obsorption of each if taken together.
