    topomax and effexor?

    Hi everyone ~

    Curious if anyone is taking antidepressents plus the topomax. I am currently on Effexor, and did receive a prescription for the Topomax from my doctor. But I am experiencing some side effects and wondered if anyone on these forums have as well. Open to discuss?
    Thanks. Swat

    topomax and effexor?

    Hi Swat,

    Last year I took the Topamax and Effexor for SAD and had no problems (just some leg humming for a day or so, then it went away). Had to go off the Effexor because of side effects and this year am taking Cymbalta with again, no problems. Am also taking Xanax occasionally and will be taking Chantix starting tomorrow. (Geeze... I'm a walking pharmacy!:H )

    Hang in there!

      Ah - you and me both. I say better living through pharmaceuticals! I am also on trazadone, and noticed on the WedMD site that I should "notify my doctor" that I am taking both. Well he prescribed them both to me, but I plan to discuss it with him at my appt. I have just noticed a lot of exhaustion, not much energy, and not much desire to do anything. Feeling achy like I have the flu. Can't tell if it is my general state of ennui, or some interaction between the drugs. I also have not noticed much weight loss. This makes me sad. But it has only been three weeks. Am I expecting too much? s

          I was taking Wellbutring and topa. The topa I ordered online and told my doctor I was taking it for migraines when she prescibed wellbutrin. She did not seem concerned about any problems with taking both.

            How did you order the Topa online. Since I am still looking for a job - I do not have insurance to see a doctor. Is there a website for this?

              I have been on the Topa for 3 weeks and am feeling very depressed on it. Are you taking the Wellbutrin for depression? I used to take Wellbutrin for depression and it worked pretty well for me. I almost told my doc the other day about the topa, but chickened out at the last minute. Tarantella
