Lamictal

I think Bupropion is bad.

Lamicil the least

I just asked my doctor if I need to get a blood test for the following drugs and he said no.

Lexapro, ativan,

I've taking so many pills over the years that I'm worried it will kill my liver or kidneys.

I belive and my doctors have told me that yes meds can kill your liver. You should check your liver enzyemes once in a while, 5 years apart for me. This time they think they have got something. I've been taking meds about 10 years now. Lately its been more and more meds and now my liver enzymes have tested high. One doc told me the test might not be acurate and thats why I did an ultrasound. Actualy I test my liver every year with simple blood test, but ultrasound every 5.

But last year liver was fine and I took bupropion for 2 years. Lamictal the last 6 months.
