Avatar m tn some here have had that symptom and some have not. It is a wd symp. for both tramadol and zoloft. I got a double wammy.
Avatar m tn Will taking Tramadol interfere with my Zoloft withdrawal recovery, since it's an SSRI? I take only 2 Tramadol tabs a day. (Each tab is 50mg) I was on 50mg Zoloft when I quit taking it cold turkey.
Avatar m tn Does Tramadol have as much SSRI in it as Zoloft? Does 100mg of Tramadol have as much SSRI as say 50mg of Zoloft? I was taking Tramadol while I was going through Zoloft withdrawal and I'm just wondering if I stunted the healing process of my Zoloft withdrawal. My body and mind still don't feel 100% since quitting Zoloft, but it's definitely getting better.
Avatar m tn just got a Rx for Zoloft for postpartum depression. how long before the tramadol is out of my system and it is safe to take the Zoloft?
Avatar f tn I have horrible depression and anxiety that causes mood swings, suicidal thoughts and intense anger. Its not bipolar since its not manic and doesn't go up or down.I used to be a heavy pot smoker which kept it under control. Well I smoked after my first son was born and noticed I got heavily addicted to it. (Bitchy without it and fiending it constantly) My doctor prescribed zoloft but I didn't feel any different and didn't change my mood at all.
Avatar f tn So many people say NEVER take tramadol and Zoloft together and that they have ended up in the hospital after only taking 200 mg of tramadol while currently taking 100mg or less of Zoloft or another SSRI. Am I just being paranoid? I don't want to chance this syndrome. Please help me......I was never told of safe doses just told by doc if I had any of the symptoms get to the ER ASAP. Why take the chance? That is my feeling.
1081265 tn?1256138365 if you are on small amounts, it could conceivably make your dependence worse. Being on zoloft and large amounts of tramadol introduces another risk too which I won't go into here.
Avatar f tn could any of you tell me how long I should be off of tramadol before j can safely take Zoloft please. I'm a mom of a new baby and want to be safe and not hurt myself or him since I'm nursing.
Avatar f tn ,another thing I forgot to mention is I used to drink a lot almost everyday and also smoked pot everyday and occasionally did some coke,but when I started taking tramadol 3 years ago it all stopped and I mean within a few days,I have not drank or smoked pot in the 3 years I've been on tramadol because I don't feel that urge to do it anymore,tramadol helps in so many ways but it just cause's greater problems that are much harder to tackle,SO PLEASE ANYONE OUT THERE,IF YOU HAVE FOUND A
1081265 tn?1256138365 ve been on Zoloft since 1995 and have never felt as good as when I was taking the Tramadol. I have actually wondered why it it not prescribed as an anti-depressant. I'd never take it again; it's just something that's crossed my mind. In any event, keep fighting. You WILL get through it - listen to the wise advice from those who know better than I. You couldn't have come to a better place for support.
1602919 tn?1297874013 Oh and I take Zoloft and Tramadol both 50mg a day.
Avatar f tn I am scared to get off completely because I have tried before and feel completely like crap and fatigued beyond belief. Nobody knows about my Tramadol addiction and I want to detox without any of my family knowing, without it affecting my everyday life. Is there anybody out there that has detoxed from Tramadol successfully and if so, what advise do you have to make this as painless as possible. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
689267 tn?1235241749 Could anyone tell me if there any problems with taking Sam-e and zoloft? I want to get off zoloft too, but want to wait until I have been off tram longer. (Been on zoloft 7 years) I take a low dose of zoloft- 50 mgs. 1x day. I have read a few long articles on SAM-e, but they just say to check with your dr. I dont want to do that cause he isnt gonna know. He may pretend to, but he is not going to really know.
Avatar f tn Before, my regular routine was taking the zoloft first and my anxiety took over and always made me so nervous in the mornings I would have to take the clonazepam shortly after the zoloft. Is there something stronger than zoloft that may help my severe anxiety better? Thank you so much.
Avatar n tn I take zoloft and ultram on a daily bsbis. Is there any concern with bad interactions? so far I feel none.
454371 tn?1221297385 Serotonin syndrome is a life-threatening drug reaction that causes the body to have too much serotonin, a chemical produced by nerve cells. Causes Return to top Serotonin syndrome most often occurs when two drugs that affect the body's level of serotonin are taken together at the same time. The drugs cause too much serotonin to be released or to remain in the brain area.
5093508 tn?1390543931 Sorry to have confused you. I'm confused myself! Before stopping gabapentin suddenly last March, I was having to pay full price for it. That was one of the reasons I wanted to stop. My amputee doc said it was ok to just stop taking it without weaning, as it's supposed to be a non-addictive drug. After a week of being off it, that's when this panic attack hit me, and anxiety, jitters, all that horror set in and depression, deepest, darkest, most awful despair, followed.
Avatar n tn t give up on me, they kept pounding my head telling me over and over and finally FINALLY i agreed and went to my doc and told him it all, i told him what i knew about tramadol and that i am completely opposed to taking it and guess what???? He thanked me for the information and told me he will read up on it.
Avatar f tn t know how it happened I started taking it for migraines and iv always had horrible depression and anxioty so when I take it it calms me down gives me peace and I had a rough childhood with my mother abandoning me at the age of 8 years old. I liked the way it numbed me to not feel any emotions.
Avatar f tn It slowly crept up on me. I have tried the slow taper only to dip into depression and severe anxiety. I did cold turkey for 7 days, lost it and started again. How many are successful going cold turkey. Since I went back on, have been having wd symptoms very easy between doses. This never happened when I took it before. I would rather suffer hard shorter wds than slow and certain torture for months.
Avatar n tn I had no choice but to go back on and tapering did not help. I had months withdrawal even taking Zoloft. My opioid withdrawal lasted 3 days and was not as severe.
Avatar f tn It's tough to weigh it out. I used to take klonopin but apparently *all* benzos (xanax, ativan, valium, etc) can cause birth defects. I had to stop Effexor to switch to zoloft. And stop trazadone, tramadol, ambien...I think it boils down to the doctor's experience and preference with certain meds and if they feel they would do more good than bad. Good luck!!
Avatar f tn I am currently taking 40mg prozac after over a 3 year addiction to tramadol and the occasional hydro.I haven't had any pain pills since Jan.7th and started the prozac the same time. My question, what other AD could I try that could help with motivation, energy. I just feel blah most of time. Its like I sit in a stooper most of the day and just do enough to get by. I've asked this before and some suggestion my AD needs changed. I have a dr. apt.
Avatar f tn Hello, I am 30 days off of tramadol ( 2pills 3x daily sometimes more) they were prescribed to me for fibromyalgia and I was on them for 2 years. I was on hydrocodone for about a year before the tramadol and I wanted to get off the narcotics so I was put on tramadol since its "non narcotic"...!!! Yeah right! I quit taking the hydrocodone cold turkey and the withdrawal from those was way easier than the withdrawal from tramadol! Anyways...
1269044 tn?1393189903 -) So kratom according to some reads acts similar to tramadol, it hits opioid receptors and acts like an ssri. I remember when taking it it was about 1.5 weeks of taking it I realized I felt happier. Most ssri's take several weeks. Could explain my good feelings. Also could explain the extreme depression and anxiety coming off kratom. And possibly why taking too much over long periods the good reverses.
