HI
I do think my sxs (high blood pressure sxs) were from caffeine--didnt take any Adderall yesterday, no abilify either (for two days) and I still felt as though my pressure was up. DUH it only occurred to me later that I was forgetting (ie ignoring) the statements about caffeine and Luvox. Once I decided to stay at a low dose I didnt think it could be such a problem. Obviously all these drugs using the same enzyme amplified everything. This is so annoying, I find a combination that appears to make a difference, and it is difficult to manage. Well I suppose I need to adjust the mix until it works....but I am doubting Abilify could be in the picture, I may be one of the people with too little of this enzyme...with Abilify's long half-life it builds up too quickly. Good emergency drug but I will try to work without it....
Give up coffee? NOt easy at all for me, it is a huge emotional crutch
