Answers:
it depends really on what kind of antidepressants you are taking!. Some will make you sleepy, it which case you should take them at bedtime, some will rev you up, so obviously you need to take them in the morning!.!.!.but always always always take them at the same time everyday!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
A lot of when you take the meds depends on what kind they are!. But, they should be taken pretty close to the same time!.
I take Wellbutrin SR (150 mg) in the morning, and Lexapro (10 mg) in the evening, for depression and anxiety!. I've been taking that for over a year and a half, and it's working very well for me!.
The Wellbutrin SR seems to help me to be more active - and wanting to do things - while the Lexapro makes me more mellow, and helps me sleep better, too!.
When I got the prescription, they told me if I was to take the Wellbutrin SR in the evening, I wouldn't get much sleep!.
Best of Luck :-)

When I was on antidepressants I HAD to take them in the morning because if I took them in the evening I couldn't sleep!. It was one of the ingredients in them!. So, if they don't affect you like that, then it doesn't matter when you take them, as long as you take them at the same time everyday!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It doesn't matter unless they are causing you to be tired or energetic!. I've been on some that make me tired so I take them at night!. And yes, they should be taken at the same time each day!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
same time each day if they are to help u sleep or sedative ,night time if they are more energetic then morning or afternoon it doesnt matterWww@Answer-Health@Com
depends on how they make you feel!. i would say prolly morn!. to make you feel better but if they make you sleepy then take them in the evening!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
My GP has always said take them at the same time every day and it's better at night/evening time, I don't think it really matters but if you feel a little sedated at first night would be better!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
