CW: Medical, meds question
Sanity check because I don't trust my doctors an inch:
My psychiatric meds currently are the following:
- #Lisdexamfetamine (Elvanse/Vyvanse): 30-40mg / day
- #Promethazine if needed, to calm down anxiety/to fall asleep if I'm nervous.
- Vitamin D supplements and HRT which should be irrelevant here.
I have now additionally been prescribed #Sertraline (50mg/day) to combat my depression.
I am experiencing high levels of anxiety, nausea and general distress as a response to the sertraline. It is hardly possible for me to live life right now.
Is this dosage sane?
Is it advisable to power through the side effects somehow or is this a warning sign? Any interactions here with my other meds that anyone might have missed?
Is Sertraline as an SSRI safe to take alongside those other two?#adhd #autism #anxiety #meds #askFedi #vyvanse #elvanse #ssris #ssri #sertralin #antidepressants #antidepressant #antidepressiva #medikamente #medis

(if past is prologue US litigiousness will not take long to board this train, this time perhaps deservedly)
Prenatal exposure to medications that inhibit #sterol #biosynthesis, including certain #antidepressants, #antipsychotics, #betablockers, and #statins, is associated with a significantly increased risk of #autism spectrum disorder in offspring, with risk rising in a dose-dependent manner…pregnancies with such exposure increased from 4.3% in 2014 to 16.8% in 2023.

The claim is circulating that antidepressants can cause overheating and dehydration. This is a genuine public health message, but it's not so simple: diuretics, beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, antipsychotics, and some antihistamines may also interact badly with hot weather.
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/15/well/live/heat-weather-medication-safety.html (excerpt in a reply)There's even doubt about antidepressants having this effect. A recent paper in eClinicalMedicine looked at all the studies they could find and concluded that there wasn't evidence of antidepressants causing overheating in hot weather - though some other medicines do.
"Current evidence supports strong anticholinergics, non-selective beta-blockers, adrenaline, and anti-Parkinson’s agents impairing thermoregulation during heat stress ... physicians should interpret with caution conventional public health messaging related to the thermoregulatory effects of some drugs (e.g., antidepressants) during hot weather."
