Does anyone see any problem taking vitamins/herbal supplements with Wellbutrin and Xanax? I can't seem to ever get a hold of my doctor to ask him and he'd probably just say, 'Yeah, go ahead.' So, thought I would ask what everyone thinks here instead.

It depends. What supplements are you considering?

I was going to take this herbal supplement for allergy & sinus relief. I also take Vitamin C, a multi-vitamin, and Beta Carotene every day. Also, tried Echinacea for awhile, but you have to take it 3 times per day and I always forget.

I am on Xanax (I was on Wellb. and Xnx together for a while) and I take multi-vitamins, herbal suplements, (Echinacea & Vit C when I'm getting sick) and have had NO problems! But I'm not a dr, so when u get a hold of one, ask for yourself of course, but my doc said 'yeah go ahead'.

A good multi vitamin is fine, but never mix an SSRI with a herbal supplment.
