In reply to Stimulant + Celexa -- anyone?, posted by Bekka H. on March 4, 2002, at 23:25:34
> Is anyone out there on a stimulant in addition to Celexa? If so, what stimulant? How long have you been on the combo, and what do you think of it? I've tried this several times, and I feel as if the two drugs negate eachother. SSRIs are known to lower dopamine levels, and stimulants can deplete both dopamine (after raising it, initially) and serotonin. I'd like to hear from anyone who is on this combo or who has been on the combo. Thanks.
ive been on celexa and adderall for about four weeks now in addition to topamax it really its doing wonders...it took a while to find a combo...however...i am playing with the adderall and only taking it when i need it because of some situations..but when i first started taking it i did call the pharmacist and i asked them what was going on and they said that the celexa did have some ingredient in it that knocked up something in the adderall(like all other stimulants) to make it work and i was surprised...but i was really not happy..because i was fainting and breaking out in sweats..but i was on 60mgs of adderall xr and i knocked back down to 30 immediatly...anyway so they dont negate eachother..hope that helped...
