In reply to zoloft and celexa together? , posted by hildi on July 2, 2002, at 16:39:51
Hildi,
I asked my pdoc about that very situation, except I was already taking Paxil & Celexa together. I actually found benefit from taking a low dose of each or alternating the two...
Celexa alone made me very overfocused OCD - I reorganized my entire house in 1 week - and pretty much ignored my 3 babies while I doing it.
The Paxil eliminated my anxiety and my OCD to the point where I just about couldn't find my kitchen, much less get it clean or organize anything. On paxil alone I was just confused. but I found benefit to alternating the two.HOWEVER - when I asked my pdoc told me it was not a good idea - I didn't press for why, but I think he was thinking serotonin syndrome.

> Has anyone used a combination of zoloft and celexa together? If so, how has it worked for you? I am thinking of trying low doses of both,at least until the celexa I just switched over to (from zoloft) starts to work.
