A member asked:
Is caralluma fimbriata safe when used along with 5 mg amitryptyline every day and 5 mg fluoxetine every other day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Your Own Risk: Almost nothing is known about this herb supposed to suppress appetite. Older folks have less tolerance for side effects & your amitriptyline fluoxetine doses are very low, yet fluoxetine can increase amitriptylene levels. Both meds can increase appetite. A higher dose of just one might be better. Adding this herb must be your own risk and less desirable than healthy diet & daily moderate exercise.
