Anyone tried this combo? I am taking Wellbutrin XL 150mg and Lexapro 5mg. Both help with depression/anxiety. About to add Adderall 10 mg to the mix for desperately needed help with focus.

This is my first real attempt to medicate for ADD, although it has pretty severly f***ed up my life (two divorces, etc.)

Let me know if you have tried these three meds in combo and if it helped you.

umm... all i can say is good luck with that one... adderall made my anxiety worse! and my paranoia but after that i tried dexedrine and i love my dexedrine's (the brand, i filled my Rx for brand and only got about 20 pills outta my 120 script... yikes!, so i hadda get the rest fileld with barr, YIKES!!! caint wait for brand to get back in buisness) anyway good luck you might wanan start out with brand then go to generic as brand usually is alot better with side effects (i think its in the way its made (metal or titanium container, plastic bottles for storage or alluminum or maybe its just the chemical purity or grade of the chemiclal) anywy sry for rambling on i gotta do some other stuff good luck

PS NEVER tried that combo but i have been on welbutrin and adderall not the anxiety stuff

I'm on Wellbutrin and Adderall and it works great for me. I take Neurontin occasionally for anxiety (and Xanax once in a great while for flying and the dentist). I have not taken Lexapro with it- I took Celexa alone several years ago and it did not work at all for me- but I have not found myself being any more paranoid on these meds (with the exception of the first couple of weeks on Wellbutrin). I have found that they do make me far more sensitive to caffeine, though, which can make me feel very speedy and anxious, so you might want to cut down or skip coffee/soda while you start.

I hope it works for you!

I've been on Lexapro for 3 years, taking 20mg and just started 3 weeks ago on Adderall XR 10mg. It's working well for me, my doctor said there's no conflict between the 2 drugs. One's for depression, the other to improve focusing, which I desperately need.

Wellbutrin is a good supplemental anti depressant, its kind of weak sauce on its own but when combined with another med it can have interesting effects.

But wellbutrin essentially does the same thing as adderall, They both blockade norepinephrine and dopamine receptors causing you to have a larger amount of these neurotransmitters in your brain. Of course adderall is much more efficent at the dopamine reuptake inhibiting...im not sure how they compare norepinephrine wise.

I've been on Lexapro 10mg for a few years now and it's helped me combat a lot of my anxiety. I also take 20mg of Adderall.

Hi i am doing that combo now ..150 mg of wellbutrin for depression and 30 mg of adderall extended form. It works good so far.
