Adderall and Cipralex(Escitalopram)

[reflekt]

Would there be any problems with taking 10mg Escitalopram say about 12 hours after 20mg Adderall XR?

Did some searching and seems ADHD medications are sometimes prescribed with SSRI's. Thought I'd make sure.

Thanks

there shouldnt be... i think worst case scenario would be Serotonin Syndrome.

Yeah you can take them together, no problem

Serotonin syndrome is very unlikely as Adderall is primarily dopaminergic and only has minute serotinergic action.

Interactions checker for future - says to generally avoid, reading through it there is an outside risk of serotonin syndrome, and a bigger risk of getting side effects such as jitteriness, so I'd keep your doses low and procede with caution.
