Please help
i was wondering if it was alright that i take nadolol and lexapro... or take effexor and nadolol... i have migraines and i think im depressed because of them... so is that ok to take a combination of either of the two..
Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
Anti depressants like Lexapro also lower blood pressure and Nadolol is a known antihypertensive agent. It is important to exercise caution while taking these two drugs together as they can cause a sudden fall in BP. Make sure you get up slowly while standing from sitting or lying down position when taking both these drugs together. Same is the case when you are taking Effexor which is also and antidepressant which can cause fall in BP.
Please also check with your doctor before taking these combinations.
Take care!
