Antidepressants

I have been using Molipaxin 50 g for just over a week and I seem to have gained 7 pounds.

Is this a normal side effect?

Hives are caused by an allergic reaction and as much as Zyban companies will have one believe, there are some terrible side effects taking this med. I had a friend who took it and his face was so swollen it cracked (as did his lips). The doctors at ER said it wasn't Zyban, but in truth it was. Go and see your doctor and if you don't have one then go to a clinic ASAP. You will be given a antihistamine. Don't self medicate yourself, but see your doctor! Good luck Hope you are feeling better soon Marcy

Absolutely not, Abilify (Aripiprazole) is an atypical antipsychotic, which is a completely different class of drugs from MAOIs (monoamine oxidase inhibitors).

I have taken both together. I had no issues. Just in case space out both as much as possible; plenty of water. If you must take a pain med, maybe get a slow release wellbutrin from your pharmacy. Just in case talk to your doctor, or pharmacist. Hope it helped.

Generic Paxil is definitely the same with its brand name since both drugs contain the same active ingredient. The only difference is the name given by manufacturers. The generic version of Paxil is known as Paroxetine. If you are on a tight budget then you can go for generic medications since they are basically much cheaper and offer the same outcomes with the brand names.

I have taken Effexor XR for some time. In the last few years I've had trouble sleeping and was given a scrip for Ambien. I'm not sure it hurts to take them together although I am on 150mg Effexor and only 5mg Ambien (was given 10mg, but cut them inhalf), but I'm also not sure that you shouldn't. I would not take it every evening whether on Effexor or not. Advise to take the lowest dosage of Ambien that helps.

My best description of Effexor is "the drug from hell". Yes, it has helped my chronic depression, but after several years and reading and becoming concerned about its long-term us, I tried (through my doctor) to wean off it. The withdrawal (after 2-3 of tapering off) were horrible (and NO, it wasn't just depression returning). I can barely describe what I felt like, my doc asked me, and the best I could come up with is "it felt like my brain was trying to throw up and couldn't"--crying, restless legs, helplessness, hopelessness, inability to sleep, dizziness, nervousness, nausea, vertigo--a combination of awfulness!

SAM-e should be fine with an antidepressant. It is going to interact with other hormone medications. Lexapro will be OK to take. Remember to take your Lexapro every day even if you don't feel you need it!

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.

Prozac is intended to treat depression, but is also used to relieve hot flashes, therefore it is not suppose to cause what it is intended to treat. That being said, it is not likely.

St. Johns Wort. Google it for some info on it, that's what i did. I couldn't really tell you if it works because I just started taking it two days ago, but I am hoping. I can say that I have been feeling calm. Also I started taking 5-htp. You can Google it for info also. Good luck.

Medications such as Trazodone and Daypro can cause false positive results for benzodiazepines.

There are many benzodiazepines. Some examples are Xanax, Klonopin, Valium, and Librium to name a few. There are many more.

Yes sometimes the chemical in the Prozac can be identified as a benzedrine. The volume that u take can make the test a false positive. Make sure to get a written note or diagnosis page from your physician

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.

Zoloft is the product trade name of sertraline chemical compound.

Doctors in the US prescribe chemical compounds, so your prescription will read "sertraline".

To the contrary, doctors in the EU prescribe products, so your prescription will read "zoloft".

If you have no prescription and you ask your pharmacist just "sertraline" they may give you Zoloft (original drug, from the maker who initially hold the patent) or other other product that contain the same drug (called 'generics').

If you can afford the Zoloft (maker: Phizer) prefer it from generics. Although it is always the same drug, other inactive compounds of the drug may not be the same, so distribution in the body may not be exactly the same, affecting efficacy or clearout time.

Elavil (TCA) is used to treat Depressive reaction (reactive depression, secondary depression), depressive illness (biologic depression, major depresive disorder), affective disorder: depressive phase of manic-depressive disorder Paxil (SSRI) is also used to treat this disorder. Paxil is used to treat This medication is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) used to treat depression, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), social anxiety disorder (social phobia), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and generalized anxiety disorders (GAD).This medication has also been used to treat a severe form of premenstrual syndrome (premenstrual dysphoric disorder- PMDD), sexual function problems in men (premature ejaculation), nerve problems associated with diabetes (diabetic neuropathy), and chronic headaches. Depakote is used to treat mania associated with bipolar disorder, to treat complex partial seizures and absence seizures in epilepsy, and for the prevention of migraine headaches. I would say this combination of medications is ok. If you have concerns or doubts about the medications you are putting in your body it's probably best to seek the advice of the prescribing doctor. They can help you evaluate right medication for you symptom specific needs.

can I take celexa and zicam flu

The most common side effects of wellbutrin are changes in appetite, constipation, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth, headache, increased sweating, nausea, nervousness, restlessness, taste changes, trouble sleeping, vomiting, and weight changes.

Yes. I have depression, social anxiety and adhd (the attention deficit type- not the hypermotor type). I have been prescribed both lexapro and Ritalin by my psychiatrist and feel infinitely better. Althought the initial doses had some side effects they went away and for now I only have slight headaches when the Ritalin wears off. I can concentrate on my school work (graduate level) and my participation has recently received recognition from both my peers and my professors. I feel soooo much better than I used to. Somehow after the Ritalin was added, my ability to focus on conversations has had a positive effect on my social anxiety. I can hold conversations without hearing everything else going on around me getting distracted and then embarrassed.

I have no scientific information and the warnings reflect that an MD should be inquired prior to mixing the 2. (Mine suggested the combination)

I took Lexapro for 5 years, and I see improvement after two months of reception, is now moving away from this drug. I recommend to take a long time, but gradually abolish! The preparation is simple and safe to use!

In memory of medicine is not affected! www. pharma-vlad .com -special site all about lexapro from doctor!

my pharmacist said you can

First, you can't just stop taking Zoloft--if you've taken it for more than a month or so, you'll have to slowly decrease your dose until it is 10mg or so and then stop (this should take several weeks.) Then you're ready to start Lexapro (no cool off period in between is necessary.) Note: I am not a physician but I know that if your doctor recommended changing from Zoloft to Lexapro s/he would have already gone over this--be careful--Zoloft has a profound effect on your brain chemistry, make sure your doctor is in agreement on this. Note: I've taken Zoloft (Sertraline) and Wellbutrin in different strengths for over 6 years, these are serious drugs.
