Anyone Taking Doxepin To Aid Sleep And Contrave??
UpdatedAre these two OK to take together? I haven't noticed any major changes, but know they both may effect how you feel. A little strange. but all I've noticed is not wanting to be in large crowds or go out as much as before. I start to fell claustrophobic.

Hello, Hudson! How are you?
Is your doctor aware that you are taking both?
Doxepin and the Bupropion in the Contrave tend to increased the toxicity of each other, which can lower your seizure threshold and cause other issues. That doesn't mean they can't be taken together, but the dosages should be kept as low as possible and your doctor should be monitoring you regularly.
The FDA lists the typical side effects of Contrave as possibly including nausea, dizziness, insomnia, nervousness and dry mouth.
