citalopram and melatonin interaction

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.

Its great for sleeping with pain. But have to becareful with other meds. I had to stop taking it when tried citalopram and stuff like that. We aren't drs so best to call yours or ask pharmacist at cvs.

Yes I take citalopram and on the drug interaction list, you will see B vitamin supplements are a no no.

Hey Linda, Welcome to the forum. Actually there's a SERIOUS interaction with Zoloft and BuSpar already. The both increase Serotonin levels! Discuss this with the prescribing Physician immediately. I'm surprised the Pharmacist didn't pick it up. Again, it happens all the time,so why should I be surprised. And if you think about it, only takes seconds to check these interactions! Which Benadryl type are you referring to? Is the Children's Allergy and Cold perhaps?

If a little extra melatonin in her system could cause her IUD birth control device stop working than I strongly urge her to never turn off the lights as that will result in melatonin being produced by her body and lead to the IUD failure as well.

I have been on citalopram for a year and a half I got the valium to help with draw off the pain pills hydrocodone and. Oxycodone I'm just not sure if they are safe together??

That was fun to google -- lots of porn there. This appears to be a pharmaceutical product combining three medications for cold and cough. The antihistamine part apparently can be sedating, as so many medications are, but as it's a side effect and you can't take too much of it, I'd probably give this a pass. I'd try some melatonin 1mg and see if that helps.

In appropriate neurochemical, functional, and behavioural non-clinical experiments, escitalopram shows greater efficacy and faster onset of action than comparable doses of citalopram. The lower efficacy of citalopram in these studies is apparently due to the inhibition of the effect of the S-enantiomer by the R-enantiomer, possibly via an allosteric interaction with the serotonin transporter.

It is safe for you to take citalopram with Imodium, there is no drug interaction between the two medications.

i think ur right something i am taking at night either advil pm the hylands and the colonodine is causing a interaction... the only way i can sleep is taking advil pm and colonodine..the hylands does help though...im trying to figure out if i should just come off the colonodine if it is much use with just the RLS...it makes me really tired and i drag#$% all day!!

No interaction and they sound very necessary to help you with anxiety.

I take a clonazepam at night for restless and OTC unison and I cannot drive in the morning because I fall asleep. I am 85 I sleep till about 4:00 is it the medicines I take. I never had this before. I had a complete blood test, I Do not know how to handle this, Is it the sleeping pill or clonazepam.

my psychiatrist gave me citalopram, after taking citalopram i started felling better, and after couple months i was 99.9% cured. depression had gone, i had high self esteem again feel confident for my self i could do anything.no more panic attacks, i realized that nothing is wrong with my heart and no more agoraphobia.i start doing things again in my life, i was not sitting all day in my room and thinking about it.all those bad thoughts had been disappeared.

Wait and see if you continue to be sick. There are a ton of viruses going around and it is not uncommon to have foamy vomit. If you dont feel better in 24 hours or you develop other symptoms etc I would get checked out.

Hi Thanks for the query, Brain zaps are common as withdrawal of certain anti depressant drugs like ssri ( citalopram ) & snri s .

You can take Lyrica with Methadone and be fine BUT you should not take the Lyrica within 4 hrs after the Methadone because of resp distress.

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!!!

I am also on 20mg of prozac and .5 of xanax and the insomnia is REALLY BAD. What i do know about melatonin is that it is a natural sleep aid. Your brain produces the chemical automatically, so it is safe. BUT if you take melatonin for a long period of time, your body kinda stops producing it so much because it sees you no longer need to because you take it so often...

Now it is the third mounth which i dont take any medications except 3mg melatonin for sleep and sometimes pronalolol ( antihypertensive) and cardiovascular exercises . But the cylce still continues. If i sleep well and i woke up before entering in that draming state ( which usually lasts 2 - 3.5 hours ) i am better ( more patient , more logical , in better mood etc .) but if i dream to much which which happens most of the time i am very bad during the day.

Abritt is right on with her advice on the OTC items! She gave me the same advice about 3 weeks ago when I was on day 7 coming off of fentanyl patches. Prior to taking those items I was only getting about 2 hours of sleep a night and after a couple of days taking the melatonin and valerian root I was averaging a solid 4 -5 before being wide awake. Now I'm on day 27 clean and sleeping well with just the melatonin. Good luck and post often if you need additional info.

s something people hear all the time, but regulating your sleep cycle and getting exercise are good things to do, especially for people with any sort of mental illness. Try to get morning sunshine, and consider taking melatonin at the same time each night to help with the sleep and to help regulate your internal clock. If you want to talk with other people about this, your best bet might actually be a local support group. Organizations like NAMI and DBSA run free groups in communities.
