Do you think it's ok to take a diet pill, an anti-depressant, and a sleeping pill at night, all in one day?
Question:
Answer:
Diet pills are bad for you, period. The others are probably all right together.
No, not at all.
A diet pill makes you energetic while a sleeping pill calms you down. It reverses your chemicals and the anti-depressant can make you more depressed.
You should always check with your doctor about taking ANY medication with antideppressants. A sleeping pill can sometimes contain deppressants, much like alcohol, and counteract with your antideppressant.
From experience, I know that anti-depressants and sleeping pills can be used together as long as you've discussed them with your doctor and they prescribe them so there aren't any possible interactions. As for diet pills, most of them are not good for you. If you want to or think you need a diet pill, you need to speak with your physician for possible drug interactions. Depending on the type of anti-depressant you're taking there can be damaging or possibly even fatal side affects of combining the two.
