Hey everyone this is just a reminder if you are taking a MIAO or a TRYCILIC ANTIDPRESSANT do NOT take L'tyrosine.... It can cause a dangerous spike in blood pressure .

What about with Wellbutrin XL? It says not to take that with an MAOI & it's considered a SSRI. Do you know if it's okay? Thanks!

Okay, now I'm scared! I just read something that said to not take Wellbutrin if you have been taking Valium or Narcotic Pain medications & suddenly stopped. I think it can cause a higher risk for seizures. What's gonna happen when I stop taking the narc's???? Any suggestions PLEASE!!! I recently moved to a new state, I have no doctor & no insurance & I need to stop taking these pain meds ASAP. Thanks for listening!

It's not ok. Don't take the L-Tyrosine.

If you have not started the wellbutrin wait for about a week after detox then start it .... wellburtin can lower your sezuire threshold

I have been on the Wellbutrin for about 2 years now.

This is good info to post. I would add that I had a ND told me to take it. We did so with caution and a little at a time. No huge doses.

I believe what can happen when on anti-depressants and then adding these other things is called serotonin response. The bottom line is that you get too much effect. Not good for you.
