Is it safe to take Prozac and Risperdal?
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.

Can you take Cymbalta with fluoxetine?
There is no known interaction between cipro and cymbalta. So you *should* be fine. Note that cymbalta is pretty new, and it's had a checkered past with the FDA, so you really should be having this chat with your doctor who, in turn, should be watching you pretty closely, as cymbalta has quite a few physiological side-effects. This is one I'd very much avoid self-medicating with.
Honestly, I've been on Cymbalta now for just over a year, and also have a history of urinary problems which often are improved with Cipro. That said, I was told by my doc never to take cymbalta with cipro as the cipro can increase the effect of the cymbalta markedly (by about 2-3 times). With all of that out of the way - this week I was prescribed cipro for another urinary infection and discussed the potential for interaction with my pharmacist. He told me to take the cymbalta every 2-3 days (I feel like hell without it after ONE day, honestly), and continue as normally for the full seven day course of the cipro. I can live with that - I just wish someone would come up with a better option.

Can you take Adderall 15 mg Prozac 20 mg and 25 Xanax as needed?

You are permitted to have your children take antidepressant drugs but they should be closely monitored. These drugs will normally have a "black box" warning, which is the most serious type of drug warning. It warns that taking the drugs will increase the risk of suicide in children.

How long do Prozac withdrawal symptoms last and what are the withdrawal sypmtoms?
I have been on Prozac for 8 years. I quit cold turkey a month ago and still have brain zaps and fatigue. My withdrawl symptoms were bad the first week and then gradually got better. Week 3 was good as far as the withdrawls were very mild. And, now in week 4 the withdrawls are extreme. My brain zaps are strong, but only when I move my head from side to side.
Everything I have read states that withdrawl symptoms can last up to 3 months. I pray that I get better soon. I must say that even with the withdrawls, I am still happy to be off Prozac. I feel like a new man!
