Question 1

is there a harmful interaction between cipralex and valerian?

Accepted Answer

Cipralex & Valerian: Cipralex is escitalopram (or Lexapro in the us). There are no direct interactions between it and valerian.  Some studies do support valerian's effectiveness in insomnia; others do not (compared to benzodiazepines).  You may need to use this regularly for up to 2 weeks to note effectiveness.  Also, there are some cases of liver toxicity with long-term use -- these generally resolve with d/cing.

Question 2

is there a drug interaction between cipralex and ionix supreme from isagenix? or with ritalin or concerta?

Accepted Answer

Interactions Meds: Hi,
I tried to check interactions for you however in US Cipralex is Lexapro or generic escitralopram.  An antidepressant medication. 
Perhaps the spelling of Ionix supreme is different. 
Since most of our drug interaction data bases are for meds in the US I suggest you consult a local pharmacist in Canada.
Great question Thanks 
Dr Lori Lange

Not aware: Micardis (telmisartan) is not a water pill. It's a angiotensin receptor blocker use to treat hypertension.

Should consult your physician.

Accepted Answer

Valerian/Cipralex: No harmful interaction!

Question 8

can i use magrim power while taking cipralex?

Accepted Answer

Magrim Power: Magrim power is an appetite suppressant sold out of china.  I would not recommend taking anything like this from china, as many of their products have been found to be adulterated with other substances including pharmaceuticals and toxins (even in baby formula).  http://www.dietspotlight.com/magrim-power-review/  cipralex is not in the same category at all.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

Interaction: Cipralex may enhance the antiplatelet property of ginkgo biloba.  Monitor any bleeding signs, if there is, please stop ginkgo biloba and consult professionals.

Question 10

are tamoxifen and cipralex ever taken together?

Accepted Answer

Consult oncologist: You should see your oncologist who prescribed the tamoxifen.  I would assume that he/she and your pharmacist have checked the cross reactions.  It is always a good idea to double check.
