Prozac and tylenol

Common Questions and Answers about Prozac and tylenol

prozac

Avatar n tn I am able to live with my attacks (which can get really bad at times) and I actually have a fear of taking meds. I think the only thing I will take is a child's dose of tylenol only when I have a fever or migrane. I have discovered that taking Vitamin B Complex capsules have helped reduce my stress and anxiety levels. Also, I still love taking Flinstone vitamins, on top of the vit B complex. I feel great when I don't miss out in taking one a day.
5377229 tn?1367102940 What can she do to help herself? She w as taken off both on Wednesday and put on prozac. Can she use tylenol for the headache? Someone told her it is not safe to do. Another person suggested melatonin. Is that safe? She is bi polar and has gained over 100 lbs on these meds over the last 6 years. This is ridiculous! Will she gain on prozac also? What is wrong with these psychiatrists, anyway? It makes me sooooo angry!
Avatar f tn alaysha is right, but I would refrain from taking anything until you speak with your Dr. For sleep, OTC Unisom is safe, any Tylenol product (for colds/allergies), Prozac is safe in small doses, as it's an old drug and they have conducted alot of testing on it.....I KNOW that 10mg is safe...not sure about 20mg.
Avatar f tn Hi i'm on Prozac and trazodone if you start on a low dose of trazodone it shouldn't be an issue and there really is no interaction with trazodone and Prozac because I've been on trazodone and Prozac for years and I've never had a problem you just have to take it like maybe you're better off just taking half a tablet or something
Avatar n tn I have been on Prozac for about 15 years and never went off of it. My doctor assured me that it is safe during pregnancy. I'm 19 weeks pregnant and baby is looking healthy so far. But always check with your doctor.
Avatar f tn Your doc should try something else with you if prozac isnt working. I tried depakote and it made me climb the walls but my daughter can take it for her bipolar disorder and shes totally fine.
Avatar f tn I dont think wellbutrin is safe during pregnancy. I am trying to conceive also and I was on koldopins and was told by my doc that it isn't safe during pregnancy or TTC. They switched me to Prozac, which for me, works better for me overall. It is safe during pregnancy and too suffered from daily panic attacks. It doesn't make you a bad person to feel that way, inadequate feelings come along with panic attacks and anxiety.
Avatar f tn Dear Doctor, I need your help & advice in assessing my situation, based on a recent incident that I have elaborated below. I am writing in a bit detail so you would get a clear idea. I am originally from India and currently in the US (Bay Area) since last 1 year. As a history, I was diagnosed having OCD some 10 years back and have been consulting a psychiatrist who had put me on fluoxetine on and off. However, I had stopped the medication since I came to US (for more than a year).
Avatar f tn Actually, I think Tylenol and ibuprofen are mentioned -- I believe ssris warn of possible bleeding and bruising from nsaids, and both of the above are nsaids. I doubt it stops any of us from using them, but drugs are always going to present possible problems, and docs and pharmacists are pretty clueless about them. There's just too many of them, and most only happen to a minority of users, sometimes a small minority.
Avatar f tn Ok I know I'm probably not really dying, but I need some help. About two years ago I discovered I have a condition called IC that makes me have UTI symptoms triggered by diet. Anyways, antibiotics have no effect as it is an allergy rather than a bacterial infection. As you may imagine, the false UTI symptoms make it difficult to detect a real UTI. So about 5 days ago I noticed more severe symptoms than usual, and upon googling, it turned out I have every symptom of a UTI.
Avatar f tn When I was taking Prozac I didnt gain weight.Paxcel made me gain some though.
Avatar f tn The Dr said this would go away once the prozac fully kicked in , but its been a month and nothing. I know the prozac is helping but i have ups and downs all day. If I sit at home by myself for an hr or two i will feel depression and or anxiety. I guess my question is..... do you think that I should request a higher mg of prozac (20) or keep giving the 10mg pills a try? I hate having to try so hard to not feel depressed.
Avatar f tn First of all, you shouldn't just stop taking antidepressants without discussing it with your doctor. Fortunately, you weren't on the Prozac long enough and you were at a very low dose, so you didn't experience the nasty effects of going cold turkey off these types of meds. Prozac can take anywhere from 4-6 weeks to reach "steady state" in your body. That is the point at which it will begin to help you.
Avatar f tn I have been on and off prozac for 4 years and i now am experiencing heartburn. I take 20mg at night because it makes me dizzy but i dont get the heartburn until the afternoon the next day. I was wondering is it safe to take ranitidine 150mg effervescent? I took it all the time when needed before being back on prozac and it works i was wondering does it cause any side affect?
Avatar f tn Hi Elaine, Hi Elaine, I posted in the other forum (pregnancy) about being put on prozac 10 mg. I have taken your great advice and am doing yoga and breathing exercises to deal with my mild anxiety instead. But heres my question to put my mind at ease. I took the prozac at 28 weeks for about a week. It wasnt right for me and I was too worried I was doing harm to the baby. After my 3 miscarriages last year I am always worried now.
Avatar f tn got a new dr in may cause old one retired he had me try to up prozac and trouble with that so his asso. had me totally stop the prozac and go on wellbutrin sr 150am and pm,,,,after a week i was having prozac withdrawals so back on prozac i went and still on wellbutrin to be honest i dont know if my depression is something else cause neither brought me up or were stimulating..my new dt thinks i have slight add..anywayas i have been tapering off the prozac 10 mg a week per dr...
Avatar f tn yesterday I went dr for anxiety and not sleeping at night. told her about my husband had been on Xanax for about 3 yrs and I have no in, so when my sleeplessness started , and anxiety I took one of his Xanax at times and some times I would have to take 2mg so she put me on 10 mg of prazac and 1mg of Xanax . my question is I scared to death of the anti-depressant because I have heard good people doing bad things on them I told her I was afraid of them but she insisted I take both.
Avatar f tn This was about 1 1/2 years ago, neuro stimulator placed doing well with pain control using ibuprofen and Tylenol #4. However according to PM Dr. last 3 dit have shown increased amounts of hydrocodone. I take ibuprofen, Tylenol #4, Prozac, diazyde, devastating, multivitamin, exception, and a topical compound which is formulated under Dr. order. I do not take hydrocodone. I am allergic to hydrocodone. I am at my wits end, what would cause this false positive.
517130 tn?1223039824 Nervousness, insomnia, ANXIETY, tremor, agitation, headaches............the list of side effects of Prozac is quite extensive. You say you've just started taking them, so you have anywhere from 1-4 weeks for it to reach it's therapeutic level. During that time you should expect to feel like you're still on that emotional roller coaster, but you should also begin to gradually feel a lessening of that turmoil. Your doctor was remiss in not telling you to avoid alcohol.
Avatar f tn I was terrified to take anything else, but eventually gave in to Prozac. Slowly, but surely, I recovered and am now better than I had been in years. I've been taking Prozac since 2003 and am able to manage my dose based on how I'm feeling. Medication like Ativan can actually make some people worse and that's what happened to me. I believe it depressed my central nervous system so that I was a perfect candidate to experience clinical depression.
Avatar m tn what does potassium have to do with it? .... I am open here to any and all thinking and ideas ... how long sis on Prozac? ... what has improved? .. no side effects noticed by her? as always THANKS everyone and God Bless!!!!!
Avatar f tn hi since march 3 i have been on prozac and xanax i have depression and anxiety...im a bit bettter but my dr said prozac is very stimulating and im not finding that im still depressed and dragging around....are others on prozac and xanxax with luck.....dr is thinking of adding a amphetimine when i next go back to see him...im thinking like ritalin or something....its been almost a month shouldnt i feel better...does xanax make the prozac not help with depression or something?
1867019 tn?1353467540 I need everyone's opinions on Prozac and Zoloft. My doctor said said Prozac could give me seizures...scared the s*** out of me!! Please let me know if you have taken either of these?
Avatar f tn I have tried changes in my diet, doesn't work. Uhm I tried Lyrica, the pain i'm my left leg stopped for an hour, then came back, and I had a bad reaction. I tried Tylenol with codeine, didn't really help, pain was need but I was really dizzy. Note i'm on Prozac, for about a well, doesn't help. Oh and my legs and arms are falling asleep a lot more often, pain doesn't get better with sleep, sometimes worsens.
