Alcohol Treatment Medication

Alcohol Treatment MedicationWhat happens if I drink alcohol while on medication?

Lamictal and Wellbutrin 150xl 150 if I had my second drink this week tonight, which was a long island iced tea what im taking risks? and if his drink just one more step is always bad for me? I drink every day may have one or two times a week aproximatly I want to know before that as a habit, is it truw that it can interfere with my medication effects? since alcohol is a depressant? im on these drugs as a treatment plan for me im bipolar and have an add too.

Hello - is eight hours later and probably sleeping:)
I take the same medicine, and I'm fine with a couple of drinks. I found, however, that foods that the stomach is very important when you drink. I reduced my alcohol intake since the beginning of Wellbutrin, but a short time in a while is ok, I was even told by my doctor.
Good luck and enjoy your tea.

1) Alcohol is a depressant of the central nervous system, so it makes you more depressed.
2) It may go against the effects of your medications and imbalances
3) It can make you suicidal
4) It can make you act in ways that are bad for you and others
5) It can affect your liver trying to detoxify these drugs.

Follow orders from your doctor and pharmacist!

Yes, it is possible to change your medication. and alcohol can also make bipolar symptoms worse yoour

Ok, wow .. 150mg of Lamictal and Wellbutrin? How long have you been on these two medications together? I understand - I am also bipolar - but the Lamictal should be more than enough. You need to research these two drugs at the same time .. just a little side advice:)

As for drinking while on medication, my side effects were personal sleepyness extremes. Medically, if your Lamictal stabilize the chemical imbalance in the brain, and Wellbutrin will take you up (see why I think the two drugs together are vague?) Then you throw in alcohol, which is depressing, and you can have many problems .. the worst being a heart attack, or something equivalent to a cardiac arrest. Its really not suggested.

If you ever want to talk, feel free to send me an email. I understand.

Well, with an anti-depressant can make you feel depressed the next day. This happened to me. I have never taken Lamictal, so I do not know (from experience) how it works with this drug.

Alcohol enhances the effects of certain drugs. In some cases, people ended up killing themselves mixing alcohol and drugs.

I know with my drugs, alcohol increases the heart rate faster. 70 to over 100 with a can of beer. I forgot the name of the state, but if you commit yourself and your medicines cause side effects that you can go to the hospital or die. (

Not drinking heavy stuff until the risks are well understood.

The woman to be on Wellbutrin and Lamictal at the same time do not know what she speaks. It is perfectly acceptable to be on stablize mood and an antidepressant at the same time. Alcohol does affect both the health and functionality of the medicines. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about alcohol and medication specifically. Wellbutrin With a possible side effect is seizure and alcohol is only slightly more likely to further lower your seizure threshold. I am both on drugs and I've never personally had a problem with alcohol on them, but that does not a good idea, whatever.

When they tell you not to drink during the treatment, it is intended to be taken literally.
