Medical Forum / General / Pharmacy / November 2003Tramadol and prozac or ultram
Please do not take tramadol or ultram and prozac. My girlfiend had a seizure the next day after taking tramadol. She took her prozac in the morning and has been in the hospital for days. She didnt acquired tramadol from a doctor and was obtained by other means. But Im hoping by posting this to try to get the word out. I'm sorry for your girlfriend, but taking nonprescription medications (especially antidepressants) is a really bad idea. Prozac is an effective medication for many people. Your advice would deprive them of the benefits they get from it. The bottom line is that you aren't a doctor, and it's pretty clear you don't know very much about psychotropic medications in general, so yours is the last advice anyone should follow. Not trying to be mean here, but I don't think you realize the harm *you* can cause by giving medical advice in ignorance.

My girlfriend thank god is now fine. Just to clear a few things up, she has prescption by her doctor for prozac. It is the tramadol that she did not. I have read up on these news groups and searching for ("unltram and prozac" seizures) returns dangerous known warnings about the combination of them both. Not to say I even read how tramadol can cause seizures on its own. Mike ::::: That was a bit rough! Tramadol is known to give seizures in some ::::: people.... stay clear of tramadol is GOOD advice for anyone! [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] :: can :: cause seizures on its own. Yep. Well tramadol is known to cause seizures, that much is true. I would say the incidence of this happening would be relatively low, otherwise it would be pulled off the market pretty quick smart I'd imagine. And yes - thank god your girlfriend is okay now! It was a pretty dumb thing to do though in my opinion... I reckon it would be very difficult to predict the possible consequence of mixing those types of drugs together, at least with the older types of drugs you could have a pretty educated guess. These newer ones can have widely variable effects. EG: in my case, if you want to turn me into Hannibal Lecter - just feed me aropax for a week, or even zoloft for that matter. Then run... ;-) Anyhow, I do hope your girlfirend has learned not to do this sort of thing ever again! good luck, > ::::: That was a bit rough!

I'm getting really sick and tired of reading all of these dire warnings made by people that take prescription drugs that were not obtained by legal means from a medical doctor or psychiatrist. > Please do not take tramadol or ultram and prozac.

If it was accuired by other than legal means, what makes you think it wasnt switched out for something else, just like you buying this "cocaine" and it was really ajax. Second of all, its a really BAD idea to let anyone know about obtaining prescription meds by "other" means because only way to get the meds legally is by prescription. You realize thats almost like telling the feds that you're buying cocaine? Then since she took tramadol without a prescription, that means no doctors knew that she may had problems with the med, or that prozac may have had some conflict with this. The doctors I've seen will make you wait like a day or 2 to let your old med bleed out before letting you take the new ones, to make sure the drugs wont conflict. Maybe she had something with her system that caused the seizure with the med. > > Please do not take tramadol or ultram and prozac. My girlfiend had a > > seizure the next day after taking tramadol.

The drug was obtained i guess legally with those online presecriptions. So the product was legit |
