lexapro

Avatar n tn So you can see i have not committed any crime by consumeing recreational drugs, and even if it was illegal to consume drugs all the circumstantial evidence in the world will not get a conviction in our courts without some sort of hard evidence. Therefore ending up behind bars is not a concearn for me, nice rhetoric though as fictional as it was.
Avatar m tn Hi, These questions have been asked many times before i'm sure but i cant get it out of my mind, I had unprotected sex with a csw a few times 9 weeks ago, had a negative HIV 1/2 ab.ag at 6.
Avatar n tn Will he have any physical adverse reaction from taking these drugs and also taking Wekbutrin? Well, maybe and maybe not, but he will most likely have some mental adverse reactions by mixing all of them together. It's just a matter of how long and when.
Avatar n tn I take atenolol 100mg daily , and also citalopram ( an SSRI) 10mg daily, no problems whatsoever. Hope you feel better soon. I'm bias with citalopram because of all SSRI it is usually less likely to interact with other drugs and also has the least side effects profile, I feel like a new person since being on it.
Avatar m tn A series of recent non-clinical and clinical studies comparing escitalopram and citalopram to placebo found that equivalent doses of these two drugs, i.e. containing the same amount of the S-enantiomer, showed better effect for escitalopram. These results suggested that the R-citalopram in citalopram inhibits the effect of the S-enantiomer.
Avatar m tn I'm aware that those are also known causes, but we were eating dinner and though he was "slow to process", there were no other associated symptoms. when confronted he blamed "coming off lexapro", but i am rather skeptical. Indeed, the use of "recreational" with drugs, is in fact a cop out, but not mine; it's rampant in the literature. this man is a know drug abuser and addict.
547573 tn?1234655710 t, several hours later I rang again and finally spoke to her. I had told the crisis team that i had recently come off citalopram 60mg and was experience sever agitation and thoughts of suicide!! We cannot walk into an A&E department and ask to be hospitalized. So overall, it is not the best service.

1414174 tn?1304680526 You probably know there are a number of these drugs available and each has its own wrinkle… we’re all wired differently. Take note of how it makes you feel, call your doctor and describe your feelings as concisely as you can; he might recommend another drug.
Avatar m tn s marijuana use is not deemed excessive and does not interfere with daily function, subject must be instructed to discontinue any current use of recreational marijuana prior to entry into study and throughout the study period
Avatar f tn The side effects of Citalopram, which is in the class of drugs known as "anti-depressants" do not list numbness as a known side effect. The website to examine on this is: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0001041/#a699001-sideEffects I am very surprised your doctor prescribed this drug for panic attacks. That does not at all appear to be an intended use or application.
Avatar m tn My doctor prescribed me nortriptyline and citalopram together, and people I know in the medical community tell me this is a bad combo, that they shouldnt be prescribed together. Is this correct?
Avatar n tn how long does citalopram take to leave the body, i ve been off it for 10/11 days and have to do a pre employment drug screening .
Avatar f tn There is currently no way to add your own drugs to any tracker. We can add citalopram to the mood tracker for you, though. We'll let you know when it's available. Thanks for the suggestion!
Avatar f tn The combination of drugs, citalopram that is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor and amphetamine and dextroamphetamine that are dopamine and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor is not recommended. Amphetamines may possess serotonergic activity and should not be administered with SSRIs as there is an additive risk of serotonin syndrome. Enhanced sympathomimetic effects is possible.
Avatar n tn m pretty sure that you must avoid ingesting Xanax and Lorazepam together because they are both strong anxiolitics and belong to the same category of psychotropic drugs. you should be taking either one or the other. a secondary risk is to poison the liver with excessive assumption of drugs. You should never self diagnose or decide the doses without consulting a Doctor. better if more than one doctor.
Avatar f tn s now been 4 weeks since I took my last citalopram and nothing has changed. How long can the side effects from the citalopram affect the Wellbutrin?
581954 tn?1223391496 I am not experiencing any bad side effects, except for some constipation the first week, which seems to have lessened now. Google it and you will see a bunch of side effects, like all drugs, just remember that not everyone gets them.
Avatar n tn s concern may come from the fact that the use of an SSRI (citalopram is one) with aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) or other drugs that affect bleeding may increase the likelihood of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. A pain medication such as vicodin which is usually prescribed by dentists, contains acetaminophen which is not a NSAID and does not effect ones bleeding rate. Your dentist may need a course in pharmaceuticals.
Avatar n tn If these are the levels six to eight hours after ingesting, how much (approximately) would have been originally been ingested (40 mg, 80 mg, 240 mg etc)? Also,how would the other drugs interact with methodone at this level and the original level (approx). To my untrained eye, these levels look relativley small. Also, is there a way to tell (by examination or labs done by a physician) of someone is a recreational user of any of the above drugs vs addiction or long time user?
Avatar f tn I gained about 30 lbs on Citalopram. I work out and eat healthy. I just saw a new doctor and he believes the Citalopram is causing my weight gain. I have been on it for about 18 months. I am now taking half a pill of Citalopram in order to wean myself off of it. My doctor then prescribed me Bupropion HCL (take twice a day). He says that should help with weight loss. Has anyone had good experiences with Bupropion? Did you gain weight on Citalopram? Thanks!!!
Avatar f tn First of all, welcome to the forums. Please know that you've come to the right place to find answers when it comes to your recovery and defeating what we all know as addiction. If you don't mind me asking though, do you truly wish to get off these pills, and is there a reason why you're taking anything you can get your hands on right now?
