Lexapro, Buspirone, and Bupropion Combo

I'm on lexapro, buspirone, and bupropion. I get super sick when I take the lexapro with either of the others so I'm gonna talk to my doctor about switching. I was just wondering if anyone else was on this combo and if it did the same, also what you switched up?

I have not been on lexapro, but I have been on medication that has made my stomach hurt which then lead me to quitting track. I think I was on Zoloft? And now I’m on sertraline! I know this isn’t exactly what you were asking for but maybe this will help. You got this!

Brocklee, you must have been on something else before-- sertraline is the generic name for Zoloft. I am on those three (buspirone is PRN though). I only end up feeling sick if I take my meds on an empty stomach. I literally shove all my morning meds in my mouth (6 pills) at once. But meds, especially psych meds, effect everyone differently. I think you should definitely talk to your doctor. Even decreasing your dose of Lexapro or taking it in morning or night and taking the others at the opposite time could help.

Stay on bupropion and maybe try Celexa instead of lexa
