methyphenidate low dose naltrexone?

Posted by Rosy Crucifiction on October 10, 2009, at 14:01:02

Does anyone know of the effects of LDN on methyphenidate / dopamine? Thinking of adding it for energy / anhedonia relief.

current
Tianeptine 37.5
Wellbutrin XL 150
Concerta 72
Liotrix 150/30
Memantine 10

On me the combination induced some anxiety if both were taken during daytime. I'm not sure how the drugs affect each others metabolism but if you take LDN before sleep (if it doesn't cause you insomnia) it should be gone from your body by the morning.

How Wellbutrin and Concerta are working together on you?

No real issues.I dropped the Wellbutrin XL from 450 mg to 300. I saw a slight drop in BP. I may drop down to 150 and see what happens.
I was concerned LDN would block the positive effects of Concerta. You saw none of that? No loss of stimulation or (at least for me) antidepressant effect?

There has been no loss of stimulation, actually I find LDN stimulating on its own. Taken together with methylphenidate it may be even too much and cause anxiety. I have started taking LDN during early evenings to counter the fog that comes when the morning dose of Concerta wears off.

Thanks for the info. What dosages are you taking, if I may ask?
