Question 1

hello, my neurologist gave me amitriptyline to take for migraines. i am on nexplanon contraceptive implant, will it affect or interfere with it?

Accepted Answer

Amitriptyline: should not affect or interfere with your contraceptive implant. Make sure you always tell any of your physicians or other health care providers what medications you are taking, especially when a new medication is being prescribed. Then they will know what they can and can't prescribe and should let you know if there are any precautionary measures to be taken.

Question 2

how to amitriptyline and vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) interact?

Accepted Answer

Drug interaction: I'm assuming your doctor and pharmacist are aware you are taking both these medications. The combination can cause an increased release of norepinephrine. Report any rapid heartbeat, palpitations, or shortness of breath immediately to your physician and pharmacist. Avoid any other stimulants while taking this combination.

Question 3

will amitriptyline or lorazepam interact with my contraceptive?

Accepted Answer

Not likely: The combination of Amitriptyline and Lorazepam is additive in terms of CNS depression as both are somewhat sedating. As far as interaction with contraceptive i could not say absolutely without knowing specific one you are taking, but I am not aware of any interaction. Always make sure your prescribing doc (s) are aware of all meds you are taking including otc.

Question 4

how do donnatal (phenobarbital atropine hyoscyamine and scopolamine) and elavil interact with each other?

Accepted Answer

Drug Interaction: Donnatal (phenobarbital atropine hyoscyamine and scopolamine) and Elavil can interact with each other by increasing anti cholinergic adverse effects, hyperpyrexia, CNS depression and other effects.

Question 5

dose vitamin d interact with elavil and erythromycin or omeprazole?

Accepted Answer

Vit D: No, vitamin d does not interact with your medications.  Being low in vit d can be associated with depression; you may want to have your level checked to see how much replenishment you actually need.

Question 6

on 150mg topamax (topiramate), (topiramate) just got nexplanon put in. was told it wouldnt be effected by topamax (topiramate). but the pamphlet says they can interact? should i b concerned

Accepted Answer

You should: because topamax (topiramate) will decrease the level of nexplanon by altering drug metabolism and you may become pregnant. Talk to your doctor for medication adjustment. Good luck.

Question 7

will diet pills negatively interact with the birth control insert nexplanon? i know it won't with birth control pills but was curious about the insert

Accepted Answer

No effect: The implant has the same precautions as the pills. So you should be fine.

Question 8

please tell me what are 'amitriptyline' tablets?

Accepted Answer

Amitriptyline: Is a tricyclic antidepressant medication.

Question 9

are there withdraw symptoms from stopping amitriptyline ?

Accepted Answer

Possible: It is best to taper off antidepressants as most of them are capable of causing withdrawal symptoms. This is especially so if you are on a high dose and stop abruptly.

Question 10

accidentaly double dosed on endep (amitriptyline). is that okay?

Accepted Answer

Probably: You did not indicate the dose or time frame.  If you make an error in taking medication, consult your physician or pharmacist immediately.  If neither are available, call the poison  control center.
