A member asked:

I am on wellbutrin, ativan, atorvastatin, escitalopram, lisinopril, abilify (aripiprazole). can i take propranolol for anxiety/bp?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Use a low dose: Both escitalopram and wellbutrin (bupropion) inhibit liver metabolism (which is how Propranolol is metabolized) and both will result is a stronger Propranolol effect. This will strengthen the effects of Propranolol so start with the smallest dose and monitor your blood pressure and heart rate. It may also make you tired.

Dr Altman and another doctor agreed

Zoloft is very good for my anxiety but higher doses made me very apathetic. My psychiatrist added abilify since my family history of bipolar disorder. However I wanted something to increase my energy and motivation so he added Wellbutrin. Thoughts??
