Anyone have any experience with hyptothyroidism and any drug interactions of lexapro, wellbutrin, and synthroid like drugs?

I've never been on Lexapro but I've been on several other SSRIs and I've never had a problem with thyroxin. I've never heard of any problems combining it with Wellbutrin either. I think if you were on too high a dosage of synthroid that it would speed you up - something that Wellbutrin also can do - so the effect might be intensified.

I'm on synthroid, and have been on a number of AD's and benzos and never had a problem. My thyroid panel always comes back normal. Fondly, Phillipa

The biggest thing that my Endo told me was to make sure I never took my synthroid with any other drugs. Apparently, its quite anti social. For real. I think the insert says not to take another drug 4 hours before or after.
