Common Questions and Answers about Zoloft xanax interactions

zoloft

Avatar n tn what are the side effect of taking zoloft and lamictal and xanax together
266195 tn?1215310411 It is very common to be prescribed a benzo like Xanax along with an SSRI. While there are some interactions, remember that most interactions occur with many medications. It is especially common to use a benzo while you are starting an SSRI and then start to taper off as the SSRI 'kicks in.' I agree with the people here; just express your concerns with your doctor and another great resource is your pharmacist who fills your prescriptions.
689267 tn?1235241749 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. i am on day 3 of w/d from tram and i desperately need something for my horrible mood swings and depression.
Avatar f tn Is it bad to stop taking Zoloft cold turkey? It really works for my anxiety, but I've been taking other meds and I'm afraid of interactions. I take Tylenol, Ibuprofen, and Mobic.
Avatar f tn Im not taking anything EXTRA to help with the detox. Just my regular meds which are zoloft and a xanax at bedtime.. I was scared to use the Thomas recipe because I am on zoloft and wasnt sure about the interactions! Oh yeah, I can definitely hear my heartbeat in my head... Im lying around in bed right now and pulse rate is 119 RESTING!!!! This is driving me CRAZY!!!! Enemy, what anti-inflam are you referring to??
Avatar f tn i also take hormones and xanax...i read where alot of my meds have interactions...but pharmisits say its ok.............
Avatar n tn Okay, I knew I probably should not have read about it but in reading about the new drug my doctor put me on digoxin I see where it interacts negatively with xanax. I am not a regular user of xanax but have some in case I can't sleep or am nervous flying, etc... Does anyone know if this will be a problem if I take small dosages of xanax say once or twice a week? Any help would be appreciated.
Avatar n tn approximately 70 mg of dextroamphetimines, approximately 30 mg of xanax, and approximately 15 mg of zyprexa? My friend is pretty much self-medicating himself using a therapists help for prescriptions, and I'm worried about the interactions/addictiveness. Just so you know, he's 42 and was diagnosed with schizophrenia 11 years ago; hence, the zyprexa.
Avatar n tn Sometimes pharmacist will say there are no significant interactions when there can be a minor interaction like additive efffect interactions, increase/decrease, hepatic metab. inhibited, decr. conversion to active metabolite. With Zoloft and BuSpar the interaction is a pharmacodynamic type interaction. There is an additive effect. Both increase serotonin levels. Contraindicated unless benefits outweigh risks and no alternatives available.
Avatar f tn Is it okay to take Armour thyroid with Xanax? with Advil? with a multi vitamin? with 5 HTP? ( If not, how far apart should the meds be spaced out?) Is it okay to take Xanax with with Advil? with a multi vitamin? with 5 HTP? (If not, how far apart should the meds be spaced out?) I think the Armour has to be spaced out with the multi vitamin but Im not sure about the others...
Avatar n tn I take zoloft and ultram on a daily bsbis. Is there any concern with bad interactions? so far I feel none.
Avatar n tn I being taking Xanax for almost a year and my doctor prescribed me Zoloft to stop xanax, how can that be? dont know how will that affect me I am kind of scare of using both at the same time, any answer on how Zoloft works?
Avatar m tn I have been on xanax 2mg/day for 5 years. I am tapering off, medically supervised. I am now prescribed .5mg xanax 2times a day 20 mg of valium at bed time along with lexapro and trazadone (if needed). I am also prescribed 100mg neurontin 3 times per day in between the xanax to help with withdrawal symptoms. Is this a safe cocktail and is it hard to get off neurontin?
708731 tn?1229049180 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.
Avatar f tn is it okay to take several 1mg xanax and vicoprophen a few hours bwfore taking several fioricet?
Avatar f tn There're few web sites that shows "drug interactions", and "drug/herb/food interactions" ...do a search online for words in " ",I am sure you'll find your answers.....if not, please feel free to message me and I'll send you a link.
Avatar m tn Ask a pharmacist. However, I took an allergy medication with zoloft. I took the allergy medicine an hour before my zoloft. It may cause more drowsiness but its ok to take. At least my doctor said it was and I was fine while doing so.
1722607 tn?1335747858 I think if you tell your doctor you want something that is not addicting, hopefully he/she will know not to prescribe benzodiazipines but rather proscribe a medication like Zoloft. I think Zoloft is considered safe in liver disease but I am not certain about Paxil.
Avatar f tn At 5pm I take ,25mg xanax, and the pounding subsides. Are these side effects from the zoloft or xanax withdrawl? Tomorrow I am supposed to up my zoloft, but I'm afraid symptoms will get worse. Please help!
Avatar m tn I have tried prozac, lexapro, zoloft, and wellbutrin. They did absolutely nothing for my social anxiety disorder. There's no guarantee nardil will work either, but the literature suggests it is the best medication for my disorder. I'm too afraid to take the pill form, but would gladly take it injected.
Avatar n tn Is it dangerous to take Xanax,Paxil and Adipex? I take the XanaX thru out the day. The Paxil in the afternoon and the Adipex in the morning. Just wondering the if there is a risk in that. I am a feamle 28 yrs old.
Avatar n tn My doctor prescribed 100mg of Zoloft to combat ill effects of xanax. I've d/c'd the xanax under her authorization. Sine this time, I've had increased anxiety and panic attacks. I don't know if it's the zoloft or simply withdrawal but my anxiety has increased. I have had the most panic attacks while driving. Anyone have similar experience with zoloft?
Avatar f tn If you had been on Zoloft for 6 years and then stopped it, I can only hope that it was under the guidance and surpervision of your doctor. If it was, he should have put you on a very slow taper and if you found yourself having some anxiety issues during the taper, he should have also given you a short acting benzo to help with those symptoms.
Avatar m tn Xanax is a very GOOD drug for people with severe Panic attacks , NOT for people with anxiety! the zoloft is a good switch and for myself when I first started taking zoloft the need for xanax became less needed. Zoloft can take from 4-6 weeks to get the theraputic effect. but remember DRUGS ARE NOT A CURE, they are to help clear your mind to be able to deal with your Anxiety/Panic.
Avatar f tn My dr has advised me to up my dose of zoloft, im currently taking 50mg and he fills cause im still suffering from anxiety pretty bad that an increase would be beneficial to me. He has said i can split a 25mg in half to start out cause im scared to get side effects all over again. I do also take xanax 0.5 mg three times a day too. I would just like to know if its likely i will feel side effects all over again ???
