What are the effects of smoking marijuana after taking Paxil?

Pot is great with Paxil. I get all the positives of being high with none of the panic or anxiety of being high. Great combo!! I also thought it was a great combo...pot can cause depression (yes, it did for me) and paxil lessens the depression. I took paxil for 11 years and was an everyday pot smoker for the same length of time. I was also taking clonazepam and wellbutrin In 2007 I ended up in the hospital suffering from extreme paranoia and psychosis. Also I could not urinate!! I had to use a catheter (for about 2 weeks, then I was going normally again) Man, that was scary!!! The doctors took me off the paxil and told me I could never smoke marijuana again. This doesn't happen to everyone, why it happened to me, I don't know.

Can you take lortab and Paxil together?

first of all, I'm not in any medical profession, so this my personal experience. I've been on paroxetine (paxil) for 20 years now for a panic-disorder as they call it here.

Due to a slipped disk in my back I was on Oxycodone (Oxynorm, not the slow release

Oxycontin) for the last two months. After I took it I suspected some sort of interaction

between the two drugs. I once had 10 mg morfine after an operation 3 years ago, so I thougt I knew what to expect. My dose Paxil is 30 mg daily, Oxynorm 4 to 5 times a day 5 mg. I noticed shocks in my body and I became very exited and restless and the

pain was still there. After I reduced the Paxil to 22,5 mg a day, the Oxynorm works much better and 3 pills a day is enough to even walk the dog again! So what is going in your brain when you mix those drugs? I think the go for the same receptors in your brain and when its gets a bit crowded up there you experience

some sort of serotonine-overdose and that can lead to a dangerous medical

situation. So please ask your GP or chemist, all the best from Holland, Rick

Can you take hydrocodone and Paxil together?

Yes, hydrocodone is essentially vicodin w/o the acetaminophen.

But as always there is risk of overdose so just don't do an extreme amount of either at once.

Is paxil a ampheTAmine?

Chemicals like Paxil are in a class called SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors). Basically, these drugs block the re-uptake of serotonin at the synaptic junction, so there is an overabundance of serotonin.

Amphetamines tend to increase the amount of norepinephrine and dopamine at the synaptic junction, not through blocking the re-uptake (like cocaine) but by increasing the outflow from the presynaptic axon.

You can, but it is not a good idea. You may die. There is nothing to stop you doing it if you possess free will, however, its very dangerous to combine xanax with anything else.

Ask a doctor for a proper opinion, they are not like parents, they will give you the information you need without overly pressuring you into doing what they think you should do.

Is it safe to mix Ritalin with Paxil?

I have both epilepsy and a type of autism called Asperger's Syndrome. For the epilepsy I take the 500mg depakote. I also take the 1mg risperdal pill for controlling my attitude and help prevent anxiety. Taking both together gives me no problems with them interacting together. Another medication I'm on for anxiety is the 20mg pill Lexapro and it has no interactions with the other 2. To be sure that your medications are safe together though, make sure that all your doctors know what drugs you are on, and ask them about possible side effects.
