Besides zoloft, what else can I take to help with my depression ?

Hello rawboots! Yes, there are many different antidepressants available to treat depression and anxiety. You should wait until the increased dise you are starting makes any difference. I have been on Zoloft for years now but I had to go up to 200 mg so that my symptoms can be controlled. You may need another medication added for your anxiety. Make sure that you let our doctor know if the Zoloft is not helping your anxiety. I hope that things work out for you. Take care! Sweetie Pie

I did not like pristiq! I liked cymbalta okay but as for what goes with what your taking I agree with pledge... lol.

Hello rawboots. Perhaps the increase in the zoloft is just what you need. you know, a tweek, slight adjustment. You've been on it for 3 years at the same dose. Well, you're limited as to what you can take. Adderall, as you know an amphetamine, is usually not taken when it comes to mixing the ssri's or snri's. But zoloft (ssri) and you've been on it for three years. With basically, the same possible side effects as to when you are taking zoloft and adderall, I'd suggest the sister drug prozac, or paxil. (ssri) My choice would be prozac. best to you rawboots, and have a goodday.pledge.

Hey rawboots,

You might ask the doc about a low dose of Wellbutrin. Although there is potential for interaction with the adderall if you have a history of seizures, at a low dose this is unlikely to occur. I take Wellbutrin with my antidepressant, Pristiq, with excellent results.

I took the liberty to add these mediactions to the interactions checker and the following link describes the potential for interactions:

Keep in mind these are potential interactions, not certain, and your doctor is the best to advise.

Best wishes,
