Is it safe to take multi-vitamins, diet pills, and detox tea while on Lexapro, the medication?

I currently take acti-vit (a combination of diet pill for metabolism/energy to work out and vitamins) as well as The Republic of Tea :Be well red teas ( GET CLEAN: herb tea for detoxing), which help me lose weight, energy to work out, and help me clean my system when I eat too much. However, I just got prescribed Lexapro to help with my depression and anxiety. So is it safe to take Lexapro while I’m on vitamins, diet pills, and detox tea or should I stop?

Just from personal experience… I would NEVER mix anything like diet pills with the Lexapro.

I take a antidepressant as well, and I thought about diet pills and asked my doctor and everything. They Ok’d it, but in all reality I could feel the difference from the diet pills b/c my antidepressant was somehow being affected.

But if your worried ask the pharmacist. They can help, or run it by your doctor.

My advice is, vitamins are OK. anything else I wouldn’t risk it ever again.

Good luck.

    Actually, you don’t need to "diet" in fact to lose weight, the sole method which clearly delivered for me was wu-yi tea, it can be viewed at http://www.wu-yiNow.com (see the resource box below) they have a handful of free trials remaining, it was reported in Fox News and CNN. I shed 25 pounds, it clearly does work!

    I just started on Papayamine. It is NOT a diet but a whole food! It helps by giving your body all the nutrition it need and is also a fiber so it digests slower. This keeps you full longer nad removes cravings. I take one shake in the morning mixed with orange juice. Then two capsule a couple hours later. Then another shake for lunch. Then two capsules 20 min. before dinner. I have lost a bunch of weight with this.
