cold medicine

I've had a cold this week and am taking generic Meijer pseudoephedrine tabs (I'm also on Zoloft and Lexapro). Anyway, my hands are shaking badly and I feel kind of jacked up. Can this be the cold meds interacting with the ADs? I don't remember having this reaction before.

I believe that decongestant has the ability to raise bp and increase aggitation. Is there dextromethorphan in it also? that one I believe has an effect on seratonin. Not exactly sure...i know i cant take either on nardil as they interact badly.

I think in your case its simply the decongestant. try a diff brand or another type

Normally I think it is OK, but since you are taking 2 SSRI I would proceed with caution. Are you switching from one to the other or taking smaller doses of both? herpills
