> A couple weeks ago I got a cold. After 10 days it wasn't any better so I went to an ENT and he prescribed Augmentin and a cough suppressant pill called Entabs (dextromethorphan). I started taking the meds and slowly started to feel better physically. My mental status, however, was starting to get worse. I had been feeling a little down and also obsessing a little bit, but I thought it was because I'd been sick for a couple weeks and out of my usual routine. I checked online yesterday to see if there are any known interactions with the drugs I'm taking and it turns out the Entabs aren't supposed to be taken with SSRIs. Its been about 36 hours since I last took the Entab and I talked to my pdoc and he said to up my Celexa to 60mg from 40mg. Has anyone had this same thing happen to them and how long did it take you to get back on track? I can't stand feeling this way and I feel hopeless. Help!!
