You really need to make an appointment with your doctor soon have a sit down talk with them about all the meds you are on. Make a list of everything you take, even vitamins, and how much, as well as how often.

Some of the things you listed have known interactions, and they need to be brought to his attention. Be sure that he feels the benefits outweigh the risks. It is strongly suggested that you talk to your doctor.

Wellbutrin and Strattera are two that are known to have issues. Wellbutrin inhibits the hepatic CYP450 (3b) that metabolizes Strattera. The thing that breaks down the Strattera in your body is inhibited by Wellbutrin. This means that your body won't break down the drug as fast and you will have higher doses. This could lead to many liver problems, including sweating.

While this is absolutely true, Prozac (fluoxetine) and Paxil (paroxetine) tend to do this as well, and they have successfully been used in combination with Strattera in the past. Strattera is metabolized by another enzyme pathway when CYP3D6 is not available in big enough numbers. Last research I found on the subject on Google scholar was that the average dose had to be dropped by 10 mg/ day on average after inhibition of CYP3D6.

What are the effects of combining Wellbutrin-450 mg Prozac-10mg Depakote-1000mg Xanax-.5mg and Klonopin-.5mg daily?

It should be fine. Wellbutrin is commonly combined with ssri's like Prozac to augment them in the case of treatment resistant depression, and depakote xanax and klonopin all affect a different neurotransmitter system. I was on wellbutrin 300 mg, lexapro (an ssri) 10 mg and depakote at one point and was fine. Check with your doctor and check in a drug interaction checker like on webmd. But it seems redunant and possibley dangerous combining xanax and klonopin as they are both in the same drug class and depakote effects the same neurotransmitter system, GABA, as xanax and klonopin. Especially at the 1000mg dose it doesn't seem like the xanax and klonopin are needed. Too much GABA activity can cause brain damage and lower your blood pressure to dangerous lows possibley causing death. Again check with your doctor.

Is it safe to take Depakote and Wellbutrin together?

I don't think anyone should make a medical decision based on what they read on the net without thoroughly discussing it with their doctor, but I will share my experience. I have taken wellbutrin every morning and depakote every evening for about five years. before i found this combination with my doctor, I could not hold a job or even stay in school. Now I have a master's degree and I am in law school. I give a lot of credit to having discovered the right combination of psychotropics FOR ME.


Can being on depakote lexapro which was tapered off then wellbutrin adderall and xanax cause a miscarriage- pg was unknown and I was just starting all these meds?

If your doctor didn't tell you, you cannot have a child wile on Depakote. Not that you can't get pregnant or anything, but rather it will cause acute problems to the baby. So knowing that, I think it might be possible to cause a miscarriage?
