NO. To mix the two could cause serotonin syndrome which can be fatal.

Typically yes. It's a very low dose. It's considered a starting dose. I take 12.5mg, but am very sensitive to medication (slow metabolizer) so it works for me. Good luck!

Get yourself to the hospital.

Right away.

In my worse-off days, I overdosed on both of these medications. Upon arriving at the hospital they rushed me into trauma to monitor my blood pressure as it was dangerously low. I ended up needing to stay overnight hooked up to an IV of (...something I can't remember, the night was a bit of a blur) for the entire night.

I could have died if I had waited.

Hospital.

Now..

Yes no problem, I have been on doctor order for both medications for a long time now, They put me on it when i was in the hospital so i would assume it's safe.

Provided you have read the drug information sheet with both products and it does not warn against taking one product with the other, when you take makes no difference since both are time realeased....but check with the prescribing doctor(s) first is always best.

"Phen-Pro" is the combining (cocktail) of Phentermine and a low dosage of Prozac(Fluoxetine). Any one of the tailing antidepressants: Zoloft, Paxil or Effexor may be used in lieu of Prozac(Fluoxetine). The use of the antidepressant in the Phen-Pro cocktail is dissociated to imprint. The cocktail is requisite because the effects of Phentermine, when used unequaled, minify over time. The Phen-Pro cocktail enables Phentermine to work finer and for a longest period of time. The compounding of Phentermine and Fluoxetine does not appear to causa the problems that resulted from the custom of Fen-Phen.

Not a whole lot really. I did it the other day (I'm not trying to kill myself) but I just felt really hot. Also for the past few days I've had a severe headache. Even a massive overdose if Prozac couldn't kill you. It would make you sick maybe, but not kill you. I hope this answers your question :).

Yes. Antidepressants don't really react with anything except MAOIs and some other psychiatric medicine.

lower dosage 25 to 50mg every 2 weeks. if should cut down on most side effects. also if you are going down by 50mg and get side effects you may want to to it by 25mg instead.

I'm going to say no. I get very car sick and took Dramamine for a long time. I started taking Zoloft about two years ago. this past spring break i used the patch version of Dramamine and it made me absolutely worse. I was sweating, shaking, virtually in tears. I called my dr and he told me to take the patch off. When i took it off i could feel the difference immediately. i wasn't shaking, sweating or anything. I still had to sit in the front because of my car sickness, but NO don't take Dramamine if you are taking Zoloft

You can, but they can interact with the same enzyme in the liver, so typically, we will start the Strattera at a lower dose than someone who is not on Zoloft (or any of the other SSRIs).

Hope this helps!

No, kudzu cannot be taken with librium, without a doctor's analysis and approval. The woody plant in question (Pueraria lobata) functions as an herbal dietary supplement to reduce alcoholic cravings in traditional Chinese medical practitioners. Its use must be monitored since it tends to be reactive with many medicines, especially blood thinners, diabetes medications, estrogens and methotrexate.

Yes it can cause a rare but serious syndrome that can be fatal.

As far as I understand, yes you can. You cannot take clotting medications or MAOI's whilst taking Zoloft.

"Do not take Zoloft together with pimozide (Orap), or a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) such as isocarboxazid (Marplan), phenelzine (Nardil), rasagiline (Azilect), selegiline (Eldepryl, Emsam), or tranylcypromine (Parnate). You must wait at least 14 days after stopping an MAOI before you can take Zoloft. After you stop taking Zoloft, you must wait at least 14 days before you start taking an MAOI."**

Yes you can, theres nothing medical that says it interferes with conceiving so it does not work as birth control but you have to speak to your doctor about the dose when you are pregnant. Do not stop cold turkey, speak to the doctor first.

Can I take a malaria tablet called Doxycyline I am presently on Wellbutrin and Seroquel?

Check the link below.

No, Zoloft is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor or SSRI.

From personal exp. I think it relieves anxeity, gives your personality more of an edge, makes your mind go faster so that you can obbsess. makes you more excited about things. Some of these things can hinder you though so be careful.

Zoloft is a common prescription medication that treats depression and seizure disorders. Advil is an over the counter pain reliever. A reaction exists between the two medications because they may cause an increased chance of internal bleeding.

Yes, both drugs can be taken together if both are required and prescribed for you.

Hi, I have currently been weaning from lexapro for the last couple of weaks and now am off all together. I am still having the symptoms that others are having but they dont sound as severe. I started taking an amino acid called 5-htp. It claims to naturally increase your own bodys seritonin level. I take two 100 mg pills a couple hours before bed. I am not sure if most people need to start off with such a high dose. I did because I was also weaning off a sleeping pill, which has also been a success. The 5-htp also comes in a 50mg pill. I hope this info was a little helpful.

This medicine should not be discontinued without checking with the prescribing physician. Some conditions may worsen when patients stop taking calcium channel blockers abruptly.
