Question 1

if im currently taking wellbutrin xl 150mg once a day, can i combine this nootropic along with the wellbutrin?

ingredients contain noopept (30mg) alpha gpc (300mg) vinpocetine (30mg) caffeine (100mg) l-theanine (200mg?

Accepted Answer

: Talk to the doctor who prescribed Wellbutrin. The additional medications you mentioned are not in common use and are unlikely to be helpful. 
For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. 
Get HPV and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!

Question 2

can someone suffering from stomach ulcer use vinpocetine?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but why?: Why would you want to take something that hasn't been proven to do anything positive, that you don't know what or how much is in it, that you don't know the potential side effects, and hasn't been every shown scientifically to help anything? Doesn't make sense to me. Don't get your medical information from friends, tv or the internet. Don't waste your money or your health.

Question 3

can i take vinpocetine,4-amino-3-phenylbutyric acid,5-htp,caffeine gamma-aminobutyric acid while on lexapro 20mg and wellbutrin xl 150mg?

Accepted Answer

You should consult: you primary care physician before mixing of drugs and over the counter supplements, as this could cause adverse effects and bring you down off what is stable for you.

Question 4

any interactions?:ashwagandha, magnesium l threonate,taurate,glycinate, fish oil, cdp choline,acetyl l carnitine,alpha lipoic acid, vitamin d,prilosec

Accepted Answer

None known but...: Most of the things you are taking are nutrients naturally present in a healthy diet. However, I advise against taking Prilosec regularly on a long-term basis due to common adverse effects. See http://www.naturalnews.com/036336_PPIs_acid_reflux_side_effects.html
and http://chriskresser.com/get-rid-of-heartburn-and-gerd-forever-in-three-simple-steps

Question 5

is it safe to take glucosamine, chondroitin, msm, vitamin d, calcium citrate, multivitamin,  l arginine, l lysine, l ornthinine, prilosec together?

Accepted Answer

Should be fine: I don't see any significant problems taking all of these supplements. If you have any side effects, however, it may be a challenge to know which is the culprit. Typically, side effects from these are minimal or not existent.

If you are taking the prilosec due to the others causing GI complaints, you may want to reconsider this strategy.

Question 6

ginkgo biloba (ginkgolic acid), what are the benefits?

Accepted Answer

Several: There are several benefits to Gingko supplementation according to a reliable website.  www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/ginkgo/evidence/HRB-20059541
It has fairly good evidence for helping cerebral insufficiency, dementia, generalized anxiety disorder and schizophrenia, however more research is needed to determine an effective dose and risks vs benefits.

Question 7

could asupplement with aminoacids, vitamins(l-carnitine, l-tartaric acid, potassium chloride, l-leucine, isoleucine, valine, nicotinic)cause damage on brain?

Accepted Answer

NO: All of those ingredients are safe, in many foods you eat every day and already in your body. None are known to cause brain damage.

Question 8

is withania somnifera safe to take daily? (ashwagandha)

Accepted Answer

NothingPerfectlySafe: See: http://en.Wikipedia.Org/wiki/withania_somnifera. Nothing is perfectly safe. Our bodies are open systems; majority (~55-62%) is water ; we need water in ; out to stay alive; yet water can also kill us, e.g. Acute water intoxication; pulmonary edema (cannot breath), etc.. The issues are always dose/unit time, both acute ; chronic changes in behavior ; tracking outcomes, called clinical trials.

Question 9

is taking these safe? phenylethylamine, caffeine theobromine, caralluma, synephrine, methylsynephrine, l-carnitine, crateagus, red raspberry ketones, zantac (ranitidine)

Accepted Answer

Woow!: Are you asking about a composite medication, cross reaction between one supplement and another, or a novel combination you'd like to take? By the way, what are you trying to treat with this medley?

Question 10

will prozac (fluoxetine) interact with herbal teas such as lemon balm, passion flower, linden flowers, kava, ashwagandha, jujube and valerian?

Accepted Answer

Not really: Any interaction is not significant.
