Hi, I take Lamictal (mood stabilizer) and am weaning off Geodon. I also take Restoril (sleep). I'd like to try the following:
Daily:
tryptophan
Gaba
L-Taurine
L_Tyrosine
L_glutamine
Chline
inositol
Phenylalaline (as needed)
Does anyone see ANY problem with taking these WHILE I AM ON the LAMICTAL TOO??????
If these stabilize me, then I will want to quit the Restoril too, and eventually the Lamictal.
TIA
blessings
mary

Yes. Depends what though- I'd still ask phaarm or do some google. I found doctors are not keen on this topic. I haved personally taken the following from your list with lamictal and resoril with no ill incidents whatsoever: tyrosine, and phenylalanine--and also all kinds of fish and flax I think are quite safe all around, as they are FOOD extracts. I hear that St. John's Wort interacts wth many meds though- so skip that one. I've also heard general warnings about kava, any dietary pep pill products, and ginko.> Hi, I take Lamictal (mood stabilizer) and am weaning off Geodon. I also take Restoril (sleep).
