I just started Abilify (~5 mg/ day) taken in the morning and i also take anafranil (50 mg/day) and Remeron 15 mg at night.I feel very sedated and I think it's something going on with Abilify's levels in the blood.
Any thoughts between drug interactions?
Thanks

You wrote,[...Abilify..anafranil..Remeron...drug interactions?...].
I am unsure as to what iss happening here with you and the prescriber of these driugs to you. If you could post answers here to the following, then I could continue.
True or false
A. A doctor prescribed the three drugs to you
B. The prescriber of the drugs told you that the drugs combined could cause death.
C. The prescriber told you that taking a combination of SSRIs could cause serotonin syndrome.
D. The prescriber told you that the combination of the drugs are CNS depressants and could cause your death.
E. The prescriber of these drugs to you told you that there is aan economic relationship with him/her and the drug manufacturers.
F. The prescriber told you that the drugs could induce a mind-alterd state to make you want to kill yourself and/or others.
G. The prescriber of the drugs to you saw you for less than one hour.
H. The prescriber of the drugs told you of alternatives to taking these drugs, since that research has shown that the drugs could chemically alter your brain.

There used to be a med checker on goggle where you enter all the meds you're on and it lets you know any interactions. Might see if still there. Phillipa

The Remeron is causing the seddation.
I was on abilify and Anafranil for months without any problems.
