metoprolol and prozac interactions

I can tell you that I have many patients that safely take metoprolol and prozac (as well as other SSRI medications). I have not seen clinical interaction between these drugs. It is probably best to call your doctor to ask them if it is ok.

She switched me to 100mg ER Metoprolol to take in the morning and 20mg lisinopril for the night. I had to take my bp every day and went back every week. Every week it would be high at the dr Office and she would increase the lisinopril. Mind you, I didn't take prescription anything prior to this except maybe an antibiotic when needed. Now I'm on these high doses of bp meds. Initially I thought well I'll get used to them, there's always an adjustment time.

I currently take Amiodarone 200mg a day, Metoprolol 100mg a day, Prilosec OTC 40mg a day. I have occasional Atrial Fibrillation. I was put on the Metoprolol in 2004 (my dosage is much lower now) and the Amiodarone in July 2008. I suffer greatly from panic attacks and extreme anxiety. My doctor prescribed Zoloft for me at 25mg a day for two weeks, then 50mg a day thereafter. He knows all the meds I currently take, of course.

I'm taking the Metoprolol and Prozac for PVC's and occasional SVT that began after my first child was born. The vasovagal syncope diagnosis occured 10 years earlier when I was 17. At the time I was prescribed Norpace (dysopyramide) to keep my heart rate from dropping so low during an attack and that fairly well "cured" me.

Can I take Metoprolol Succinate and Indole 3 Carbinol without any drug interactions? I have been taking Metoprolol Succinate for tachycardia for a few years now and have gained weight I was watching the Dr. Oz show and he recommended takig Indole 3 Carbinol for people who carry more weight on the bottom half of their body. It just being vegetables wouldnt seem to effect anything, but I'm juat asking to be on the safe side. I have tried doing my own research but I have not found anything.

Does anyone think it is NOT the Prozac and that somehow the Metoprolol just now wore off (after 3 days) and my heart is permanently revved up? I am so afraid to exerise or do much of anything. Funny, both my cardio and psych prescribed exercise as my best weapon against anxiety! Go figure. If anyone has anything to share, I sure would appreciate it. I am soooo tired of this merry-go-round...

I would look at the birth control pill in relation to your thyroid medication and disease, and also the consequences of mixing the birth control and the Prozac. You may find that switching birth control will allow for treatment other than Prozac. Just a thought, but I think it has merit. Keeping up on your bloodwork and getting stable at the correct level is the best medicine. If Prozac helps short term, go for it. I'm taking xanax.

I'm on Bupropion 300mg/day and Xanax (0.25 - 0.5mg as needed). Also taking Metoprolol 25mg/day for hypertension. I'd like to ask my doctor to add Fluoxetine to boost my serotonin. Are there any bad side effects from combining these meds?

nursegirl is right abt the warning and IMO your pharmacist should have flagged this...so be sure and talk to them and your doctor too....

I'm currently taking xanax, and will start prozac tomorrow. Does anyone know of any possible interaction between xanax and prozac taken together? My doctor says he's not aware of anything, But I just wanted to get some opinions from people who may have first hand knowledge or know of someone who does. So I guess do benzos and ssri's mix well? I really need the xanax untill the prozac can kick in.

interactions between prozac and fentanyl. My husbands meds were recently doubled. Prozac now 40mg and fentanyl 50mcg. and he is now talking in his sleep every night and constantly scratching at himself in his sleep.

All you need to do is google drug interactions. There are a few really good sites that you punch in your meds and it warns you of the interactions. Every drug has side effects.

My psychiatrist put me in prozac and buspar. Are these two good together? Do they have interactions? Has anyone else taken these together?

My problem at this time is that my neurologist who prescribed the Prozac does not deal with candida, and further does not have any information regarding interactions. Additionally, my nutritionist is the one who has recommended the CandiBactin and she is not a doctor and therefore does not know either.

If birth control is helping mood swings, the problem is likely hormonal, and Prozac doesn't address that issue. If she's been on the meds for as long as you say, it's unlikely to cause nausea now, unless she started the birth control recently. Personally, I wouldn't want a 15 year old to be taking birth control -- playing with hormones is probably not the healthiest thing to do for anyone, other means of birth control are safer for health.

t have adverse interactions, benzos are not only often but usually used with antidepressants. However, the dose will depend on the individual, and so will the drug. Prozac is one of the easier drugs to stop taking -- the one he's taking and the way he's taking it will make it possibly very hard to stop taking.

m not really sure if this helps but I used to be on a maintenance dose of Prozac at 60mg. As for drug interactions, I really couldn't say. You might want to try googling the drugs to get their websites and check for drug interactions there. I know when I was on Prozac I did take a lot of different meds without any problems though I'm not sure about the rest. Hope this helps a little bit.

I'm taking Prozac 30 mg and I've been prescribed Buspirone 15 mg for anxiety. I'm super paranoid about medication in general, but I also have vistaril 50 mg for anxiety. I've scared myself silly looking up medicine interactions. The chance of getting seratonin syndrome is absolutely horrifying to me. How rare is it? Should I cut the buspirone in half? Or should I just take the vistaril and forget the buspirone all together?

One needs to consider which antidepressant may work best depending on your circumstances, what dosage to take, if it needs to be started at a lower dose and gradually increased, drug interactions, side effects, and more. If I were you, I would call the doctor tomorrow and be very assertive about getting seen ASAP, like tomorrow. They should respond to calls and, if they cannot, then they should have another doctor available to handle the calls. I copied what drugs.

i called y dr several times to let them know and she switched me to prisqu (some sis to prozac) b/c she thought it might be b/c prozac...after getting worse and ER trip and worse docs kept blowing me off as i was just exasterbating my symtoms of side effects....i finally goggled my meds on drug interactions and all these were MAJOR drug interactions causing something called serotonin syndrome or serotonin toxity...this can be fatal and i felt like i was going to die...

i have atrial fibrillation and am on heart pressure and heart pills. i also take prozac. i would like to know whether hawthorne berry treatment which i am about to start taking for the atrial fibrillation would have any ill affects mixed with prozac. i have already researched that hawthorne berry tincture has no bad interactions with any heart medicine treatments. would i still have to take baby aspring each day if I am on the hawthorne berry treatment.

You may be having an interaction between the Prozac and the Metoprolol Tart. Usually they work together fine if you increase slowly on one or the other, but sometimes you'll have to switch to another SSRI. How long have you been taking them together? Also, have you had a CBC test done recently? Do you know what your potassium levels are? I have atrial fibrillation in my family.

I just got off prozac after being on it a year,Im still on wellbutrin sr 150 mg twice a day and thyroid meds and hormones...has any one tried any of these supplements? And do you know if they are safe to take with wellbutrin sr?
