Avatar f tn And what is a better drug to take? I am ADD/ADHD and really stressed out. I feel better when I take celexa 20 mg. daily and 5mg of Ritalin twice daily. I am only 4'11" and this weight HAS GOT TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Avatar m tn CeleXa inhibits reuptake allowing more seratonin to be left in the synaptic gap causing the threshold for the nerves firing to be techniquelly less because less has to be delivered for the spark to occur since more is already there and available. I have smoked M. for 2 years and recently started CeleXa. The only thing ive noticed thus far is that I am less affected by the M. now that I am on CeleXa.
Avatar f tn The doc said to use Tramadol for break-through pain. I also take Celexa. I know Tramadol has big contraindications with both drugs. If I take any it's one 50 mg once or twice a day. When I do I feel really bad, like dizzy, light breathing, just not me at all. I've seen on the boards that people take Norco for break-through pain. Will that work? It doesn't seem to present as many complications as Tramadol. What do you all think?
Avatar m tn So someone on Celexa should not take Tramadol? This Dr. actually prescribed Tramadol to him and knows he takes Celexa.
1325193 tn?1450127436 chad, im on celexa and havent had any problems w it. ive been on it for 4 yrs and the only neg thing is u gain alot of weight.. lol not so bad ugh?? ive not had any bad side effects from it.. hang on chad!! its goin to b ok.. we are all differnt but i know a few people on celexa and only weight gain. it does increase ur appitite.. better than bein sick and anxious..
1325193 tn?1450127436 together and then I worked on the other issues, and still do. As far as the Celexa causing the weight gain? I do not have personal experience with it and even if I did, everyone is different so while you may gain weight, I may not. I see you asked about this in the anxiety community as well, maybe you can get some responses there too. Bear in mind, just as with this community, there are no doctors there and all we are sharing here is our personal experience, not medical advise.
Avatar f tn t take a tram, so the doctor gave me Celexa (anti-depressant), but it caused me to gain weight. I am usually 137, and now at 149 1/2. I am going to stop taking the celexa slowly, and see if the weight comes off, but still can't stop tramadol. I need help!
Avatar m tn Ultram is nothing more than the Brand name for Tramadol and Ultram ER is a timed release of Tramadol. Ultracet is merely Tramdol and Tylenol in the same pill.
Avatar m tn I suffer very badly from IC and am still getting to grips with what foods etc to stay away from, I currently take 6 tramadol, 9 gabbapentin and 6mg of diazepam daily. But lately I've started thinking that maybe the tramadol actually causes flares, has anyone else experienced this?
497348 tn?1283436066 I am just started on weaning from tramadol. I am prescribed. Xanax and Celexa. I never started the celexa because the scare of SSRI syndrome. To much seretonin release. do you like Celexa had helped you.
Avatar m tn I have about 110 Tramadol left and I think there is no time like the present to taper off and make my body adjust to a life without Tramadol. I would like to know the best methods of handling this and I already have started a taper method but any advice is helpful.
569458 tn?1221392419 Tramadol is an awful, awful drug. I had to go on Subutex just to get off it. How many were you taking. Five days off is something to be proud of and the worst should be behind you. Although the mental stuff is hard to handle and you may want to go on an antidepresant to help with that. Keep up the good work!!
479459 tn?1246742019 I think a lot of it just has to do with the logistics of getting Tramadol/Ultram... it's just easier to get than scheduled drugs AND it's relatively inexpensive. It's a central opioid agonist even though it isn't technically called a narcotic. Buprenorphine is also an opioid agonist (as well as an antagonist) - so it can be used to the same effect. Also interesting to note that naloxone (and other opioid antagonists) will block the effect of tramadol.
Avatar m tn BUT BE AWARE THAT COUGH MEDS and other over-the-counter meds can interact in a milder way (i guess....need to do own research) i stopped all med for 48 hrs and tramadol and prozac permantenly and immediatly began feeling better...i called my dr when i figured out what was wrong and her nurse said she (the doc) doesn't think i had that...i left her and every time i mention this story to docs i encounter they are blown away no-one helped me...
475300 tn?1312423126 ve tried over 10 on many different intervals and finally gave up and found a way, for me, that works to handle any of my depression issues. I do however, take Tramadol as it helps me immensely with the aches and pains and actually gives me a bit of a mood boost as well. I do not take the Tramadol that has acet./Tylenol in it. I take just the regular strength of Tramadol 50mg, not the ER. It works fine for me.
Avatar m tn When I went back to my doctor for a follow up on Friday, he also decided to put me on Xanax (PRN) and Celexa (10mg/1XD). I always research any medication I take, and have been reading that the Metoprolol Tartrate and the Citaprolam are a bad combination and can lead to extremely low blood pressure or even heart stoppage. I was wondering if anyone else out there has been prescribed these medications together, and if so, have you had any adverse reactions?
Avatar f tn Even though tramadol is not considered a true narcotic medication and is relatively easily prescribed for pain by some physicians, it is as you have found out quite addictive and difficult to quit. I would only imagine that the physician, who has been prescribing you the tramadol so freely, should be willing to help you out with the side effects of the withdrawals that you are now experiencing.
Avatar m tn s day 8 and I STILL have profound chills and sweats, diarrhea and a dark, gloomy depression with anxiety (THIS IS NOT ME!) My question now is- WHEN will these things start to subside? i went to er yest and they told me no no no ultram isn't addictive- i got angry and I told them what time it was......... they gave me celexa and ativan..... i haven't taken them-but i will if this crap doesnt start to feel better!
Avatar n tn YES,YES tramadol is very addicting and difficult to stop because of the antidepressant action similar to effexor.Even if most of the literature and medical people say it is a mild opiate....it still is very addictive and builds a tolerance quickly.Some people have withdrawals even at recommended doses in as little as a few weeks.
Avatar f tn I am a 38 yr. old female. I suffer from multiple migraines per day and fibromyalgia and severe lower back pain. I deal with the pain without the use of narcotics or opiates because I have a history of addiction to these substances as I have had migraines all my life. A common relapse issue for me is around pain management. It's a complicated subject. I take a lot of advil and muscle relaxers which do not kill all of the pain and this often leaves me depressed about the quality of my life...
Avatar n tn Check the interactions with celexa. They have determined that taking celexa with tramadol or other analgesics can cause serotonin syndrome. I am not against anti-depressants at all they have their place but the bottom line is all of these brain chemicals have to "remember" and re-establish pathways and boost their own production. I have had the same positive results from working out and sweating out all the **** that I have taking Celexa.
544292 tn?1268882668 Hi Tramadol Warriors, Many people have come here for many years, giving support and getting support. Because I still believe that Tramadol is unique in it's ... terror and torture of humans, this thread continues. The people who can understand what you are going thru are the people who have kicked it and there's people here who come back to lend a hand. You also will never need an understanding ear as much. You can do it. You can quit. You do not need to be a slave to Tramadol.
5140021 tn?1364185966 I read a paper that Celexa helps vertigo. anyone experience this? I may have to get back on Celexa and not for Panic or Anxiety but for the vertigo that started 3 days ago.
1302779 tn?1287405029 hello all i have been on 40mg celexa and .05 klonopin for a few months now. I feel that the ssri doesnt relly touch the anxiety ,and without the klonopin i would still be anxious! Does anyone get anxiety relief from there ssri alone? i know many people take 2 or more meds and I just wanted to know if im on the right track. any input would be great!
Avatar f tn What a great and soothing feeling, that there is one doctor so concerning about this horrible and silent chaser of tramadol, I admire your concerning about this medication addiction.
Avatar f tn I am convinced that my Celexa is a major culprit in my weight gain. Before Celexa, I was on Zoloft, and the first week on Zoloft I lost weight, but then stabilized and slowly began to gain weight. the weight gain was not a big amount but it did happen. Then a few yrs later, I began having problems on Zoloft so my Doc switched me to Celexa, and "whamo!", BIG WEIGHT GAIN! It was amazing! On top of the weight gain, Celexa has made me lethargic and very tired.
Avatar f tn I was taking 500mg a day of the Tramadol and since Saturday have cut down to 300mg. Its very hard. I work alot and get tired and bottom out alot. I drink alot of coffee and that seems to help. I have been taking Tylenol PM at night and that really seems to help. I will talk to my doctor about the Effexor idea. I will have to try it on the weekend so I dont miss any work. I also heard Celexa is a good one for withdrawal symptoms. Thank you so very much! You are all great!
