safety with mixing meds with weed?

[Guest weekprik]

Hi,

I was just thinking where could I find out if MJ is interferring with my other pain meds?

MJ helps ALOT with my pain, but I also have to take other meds, one of these other meds is also used as an anti-depressant, and someone told me NOT to mix MJ with Anti-depressants.

 

the drug I have in mind is doxepin. I have to take 100 gms a day.

I also consume like a packet of nurofen every few days.

I have been getting alot of mood swings lately and doing and saying things really out of character. as you guys have seen .

just ask ur doctor (GP)

 

Someone once told me that doctors cant tell anyone coz its let law.

I thought of that and a few members told me that also, however Im just not willing to risk it.

I had a close shave lately and it still scares the hell outta me.

Its not a risk. Doctor's will not and do not nark on drug users, unless they are faking symptoms to trick Doctor's in prescribing them narcotics, in which case you will be placed on a national register. But for illegal drugs, no. You may think you're special, but Doctors deal with drug takers all day every day. And they cannot do their job properly if you are not totally honest with them.

 

but, if you want a lay person's opinion, I would say no, do not mix MJ with anti-depressants. Particularly in your case, as you regularly show symptoms of extreme psychosis, mainly in the form of depression and anger.

Depends on the drug prescribed to you.

 

Marijuana and alcohol doesnt mix and barbitruates and anything else is usually a bad thing - ask your doctor [and hope theyre not anti-social].

your doctor HAS to know what drugs you take and how often you take them, theres no but's about it mate. theres no risk about it either.

 

I cant give you no advice except that you must tell your doctor, he cant diagnose you correctly if you lie to him.

Yerp what WC said & they cant tell anyone ITS AGAINST THE LAW FOR THEM 2 DO SO

[mabraxas]

geezer---fuck the MJ, tell your doc how much neurofen you take---

that suff will destroy your liver taking it so often---your doc should be able to give you painkillers you can take regularly for a prolonged period, that work much better & are less damaging to your body.

I've always told my DR that I use pot if he had a bad attitued about it I'd get another one who was understanding. DR's cant dob you in its the hypocratic oath or something like that, same as with a preist, anyway Im on lexapro, maxalon and panadol forte, the DR knows fully, I found its best to be up front with the DR its the only way he can treat you properly
