Question 1

i want to take claritin for allergies. im on zoloft, wellbutrin, vistaril (spelling), and trazodone. any major drug interactions?

Accepted Answer

Not with claritin: The claritin should not interact with your other medications listed above.

Question 2

can i take claritin (loratadine) while on zoloft!?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can: No interaction, good that you asked, keep  this habit and exercise when using multiple drugs especially zoloft (sertraline) and the like, good luck

Question 3

i am having a metallic taste in my mouth and a worsening"hacking/phlegm" cough. in case its relevant, i am also taking zoloft (sertraline) and claritin for allergies. what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Probably phelgm: Mucous secretion due to that produced in the upper sinus passages and upper airway as well at that produced in the lower respiratory tree can drain into the back of the mouth and when tasted, can have a metallic taste pending the type of infection, some blood and if mixed with medications, food and other ingestants, give the metallic taste.  If this doesn't clear with "wellness" get checked out.

Question 4

i am currently at an altitude of just under 1km i have a headache, difficult to breathe, dizzy and sleepy. on quatiapine sertraline and loratadine?

Accepted Answer

See doctor: Although your symptoms are suggestive of high altitude sickness, the 1 km altitude does not usually provoke HAS. The prudent thing to do is to get back to sea level even though I believe that your symptoms are unlikely to be related to the altitude. Can you possibly be dehydrated?  See doctor if problem persists or worsens.

Question 5

i am on sertraline and claritin can i take tylenol to help relieve some of the stuffy nose and tightness in chest. it is either allergies or a cold i think?

Accepted Answer

: You can safely combine Tylenol with these other drugs, but it will not have any effect on your stuffy nose or the tightness in your chest. Tylenol's actions are limited to pain relief and reduction of fever.

Question 6

i take zoloft, (sertraline) are there any interactions between zoloft (sertraline) and herbalife shakes?

Accepted Answer

Zoloft (sertraline) and herbs: When taking zoloft, (sertraline) be careful not to take St John's wart ginkgo biloba, 5 ht and l-tryptophan as they can increase serotonin. Check if herbalife products contain these ingredients.

Question 7

i am presently taking risperdal and now i am being put back on my zoloft (sertraline) should i worry bout any interactions

Accepted Answer

Not particularly : Should not be much to worry about with risperidone.    Technically both work on the aspects of the serotonin system but should not affect how each other are broken down.  I am not aware of any absolute contraindications of being on both

Question 8

my pdoc prescribed me wellbutrin (bupropion) and i take lithium and zoloft. what are the interactions  when i take the meds? what should i expect?

Accepted Answer

Depends on dose: Zoloft and wellbutrin (bupropion) are moderate, dose-related inhibitors of cyp450 2d6 for which zoloft partly depends upon for its metabolism.  Zoloft usually only inhibits 2d6 at higher doses (150-200mg).  It might be worthy to be genotyped for this enzyme to assure you are a extensive metobolizer (em) type.  Lithium is mostly excreted unchanged by kidneys.  Please follow-up regularly with your doctor.

Question 9

what are the interactions between zoloft (sertraline) and melatonin if any?

Accepted Answer

Zoloft/Melatonin: No interactions. Only caution when taking melatonin is if u r on medications that suppress the immune system, blood thinners, diabetes medications, & birth control pills.

Question 10

can i take zoloft and miralax together? drugs.com says it causes an interaction

Accepted Answer

Interaction: Just consider separating the times you take the Zoloft and the Miralax. That should be plenty to rid of any direct interaction.
