Can Ativan Celexa seroquel and lamictal be taken together?
Hi. I have Bipolar 1 and currently take 50 mg Seroquel and 200 mg Lamictal. I was just put on 10mg Celexa to help with unexpected depression. And I take Ativan sparingly if I feel anxious. They can be taken together, but I do not know about dosage. I think it's best if you check with your doctor. Good luck!

I take 600-800mg a day and I am STILL all over the place emotionally so I don't see how you might lose all emotions. I am ultra-rapid cycling bipolar though so take that as you will.

Can you take expired seroquel?
I can't say whether or not you should take it because I am not a doctor. But I lost my health insurance and I have been taking expired Seroquel for months and I am doing fine.

Can taking seroquel for bipolar mania and then later adding risperdol cause depression?
They can certainly make you feel sluggish and tired if taken together. I am assuming you are under a doctor's care - usually I see one drug or the other, but not both together. The number one side effect of both medicines is sedation or sleepiness.
Of course, there is always the possibility that you're just having a normal depressive cycle, and that it has nothing to do with anything going on in your life.
What happens if you mix ambien Klonopin seroquel welbutrin and Celexa Can you overdose from that?
If you take them in their rx'd doses, it shouldn't cause an 'overdose', but if you take the entire bottle of each (a 30 day supply), more than likely you'll end up in the ER (but not dead). If your dr has ok'd it, just take it as perscribed, though a side effect from the first 4 can be drowsiness.
Is Trazodone different from Seroquel for bipolar?
Yes. Trazodone® and Seroquel® are different classes of medications entirely, but both can be used at low doses as a sleep aid in people with bipolar disorder.
Trazodone is an older, weak antidepressant with strong sedating side-effects, used almost exclusively as a sleep aid. It has no mood stabilizing properties.
Seroquel is an antipsychotic medication that also has sedating side-effects, and is often used as a mood stabilizer, anti-anxiety agent, or sleep aid for people with bipolar disorder. Seroquel is also sometimes used to potentiate antidepressants. It is not necessary to be psychotic to benefit from this medication; in fact, many people who take Seroquel have never been psychotic.
Trazodone is available as an inexpensive generic. Seroquel is available by brand name only, and can be expensive. The manufacturer's patent is set to expire sometime in 2012.
