Question 5

will taking xenadrine  (weight loss supplement) affect the depo provera (medroxyprogesterone) shot?

Accepted Answer

No, but a bad idea..: No drug interaction but the drug is a congeners of epinephrine and can increase both your heart rate and your blood pressure. It can be very dangerous. Just because it is available OTC doesn't mean that's not without its risks. It is NOT a good way to loose weight!!

Question 6

can i take zoloft (sertraline) and welbutrin with diet pills?
such as xenadrine or hydroxycut? i need to lose 50 lbs. zoloft (sertraline) has made me gain a lot of weight. but i need it for ocd and depression.

Accepted Answer

First, : First, this really needs to be discussed with your psychiatrist.  I do not know your dose of medications.  Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors can be associated with weight gain. Just some things to discuss with your psychiatrist. Sometimes, Lexapro can be more weight neutral than zoloft.  There are many studies that have shown weight loss with use of wellbutrin (bupropion) in depressed individuals who watched food intake and got a minimal amount of aerobic activity. Maybe there is room for an upward shift of your wellbutrin (bupropion) dose?  Rather than adding another chemical into your system (xenadrine or hydroxycut) see if there could be some titrations with your current medications. Another thought might be use of medical acupuncture or hypnosis to assist with obtaining a heatlhy weight.

Question 7

good day

ive been using valsartan for hypertension reasons but had to stop because it causes me epididymitis, now i use  atorvastatin and its giving me vivid dreams. is there anything better i can use with less side effects ?

Accepted Answer

Medication : You can speak to a doctor about changing your medication. I remember and a patient who had 20 medications on her allergy list, but when you continue to ask her details about the side effects you come to realize she did not want any medication because she believed that all medication is bad for her.  Sometimes patients express concerns indirectly

Question 8

so she has been getting a steroid injection due to her hs ( hidradenitis suppurativa) is that injection for any chance going to give her any side affects of gaining weight and her period being delayed or any other side effects?

Accepted Answer

: This type of steroid treatment can give a patient an appetite increase. It is not the type of steroid that would interfere with menses. Long term side effects of steroids depend on dosing &amp; frequency and rarely are features of sporadic use.

Question 9

side effects of pills?

Accepted Answer

Too vague: A question. Different pills/meds have different effects as well  side effects.

Question 10

side effects from medicines?

Accepted Answer

Side effects: Many and varied!
