Is Anyone On 2 Different Antidepressants

A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭
Newcastle upon Tyne, UK

I have been on venlafaxine for a few months now and today as I have been having sleep problems. My GP Prescribed amitrypteline too. They both come under the same category. I was wondering if anyone else is on 2 antidepressants and are you being closely monitored by your doctor.

Loads of meds sweetie, I used to be on 2 antidepressants, 2 sedatives & 2 sleeping pills, I put on 3 stone & felt even worse, so stayed on one antidepressant & the occasional sedative I take statins & bp meds, I'm now slim & much better 😄Xxx

Thanks everyone, I am on other medication too, lansoprazole, bisoprolol, codeine, paracetamol, metformin, candesartan, atorvastatin, docusate, cerelle. I just thought u couldn't be on two antidepressants at the same time. I did take them both last night and I feel wrecked today. I will see how I get on then see doc on Monday.
