Is it safe to take sibutramine if I am also taking Prozac? (20mg)?

Answer:
Answer from a pharmacist.Not a good idea... they both 'officially' treat different things... but they work similar. They could cause your serotonin levels to increase which could lead to something called 'Serotonin Syndrome'.

Signs and symptoms of serotonin syndrome range from restlessness and rapid heartbeat to muscle rigidity and seizures. These go away quickly with treatment, which could simply mean stopping the medications causing the symptoms along with taking other drugs such as muscle relaxants and serotonin-production blocking agents. If not treated quickly though serotonin syndrome can become life-threatening.

Granted, you may take against advice and not have any reaction.but you never know how you will react (and I don't know your age, weight, past medical history, etc... so I couldn't make a determination on how likely you would be to react)...so. since there are many other weight loss options available, it's not worth the risk of taking the 2 meds together...
