Guest guest Posted May 3, 2003 Report Share Posted May 3, 2003 Is anyone currently on PTU or tap also taking any of the antidepressants like Prozac, Paxil, Effexor, Wellbutrin, Celexa or the like? Are people experiencing interaction between the ATD's and the antidepressants? Or a worsening of thyroid labs with the onset of antidepressant usage? Or the ever-popular " I don't know if it's my Graves, or the ATD's or something in the drug that doesn't agree with me? " Someone I knew with Graves and depression ( and what a surprise that would be!;-)) had trouble , even more than usual, finding an antidepressant that did not exacerbate her Graves. Just asking, if people have any experience to offer. Maribeth _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2003 Report Share Posted May 3, 2003 hmmm, I normally took Paxil for my PMS which only made me wanna choke the life out of somebody, but I ran out.....never got it refilled? Funny thing is, I am not having any periods since my #'s reflect hypoT from hyperT/graves, but I ain't trying to grab anybody around the throat lately.....and I feel better than when I was really bad hyperT. Interesting that you mention it, cuz I'm a lot calmer now? Even my co-workers think I'm getting back to normal....
