Does anyone take both Seroquel and Ativan together?!


Question:

Does anyone take both Seroquel and Ativan together?

Im hoping someone might have the knowledge and experience with these two meds!
Seroquel is what i take 2 treat my bi-polar II disorder. Aftr yrs of trying so many diff meds, this one has helped the most. Now i WILL admit i dont take it evryday. Ive made a personal choice not to, as this is a disease i will live w/my whole life. I understand the benefits from taking it daily, and I have prev yrs but I just choose not to anymore.
My main problem this past yr has been w/my anxiety. I was prescribed ativan by a diff dr when i was in urgentcare. He asked if i was taking any other meds and i did mention seroquel but told him honeslty i hadnt taken it for a long while.
So now my depression is back 'n on top it Im dealing w/extreme anxiety everyday. Im hving a real hard time dealing w/the loosing my baby from a miscarriage jus a few wks ago. I got the chance 2 speak w/a pharmacist and he said it would be fine as long as ive been taking ativan for awhile to also be able to take seroquel.

The only detail i left out to the pharmacist is that i actually haven't taken ativan in months since i became pregnant at the end of march. So really if i start to take them both together it will be like i am all over again without use from them in awhile. Help!


Answers:

If the pharmacist said it was ok, it should be fine then.Are u on a small dosage of ativan?
Just be careful taking it too often as I am sure you were told it is so highly addictive!
I have taken Ativan with my anitdepressant and it was fine.It helps alot! but then again that is why it is so addictive.Just be careful with the frequency of the dosage. Good luck!
