Hi Moktar Gado,
Online resources are great for getting information to help you ask all the right questions when you talk to your doctor. But the information you find online should never take the place of your doctor's solid medical advice and care.
Here are some links to information about the medicine's you are currently taking. I am assuming these were prescribed by your doctor and your pharmacist has advised you of any interactions. Make sure you tell your doctor everything you are taking too, even if you are taking vitamins or suppliments.
Escitalopram is Lexapro and is prescribed for depression, Faverin is Luvox and is prescribed for depression, Remeron is prescribed for depression, and Lamictal is a drug normally prescribed for seizures.
Since you are taking 3 medications for anxiety and depression, it could be that you are actually taking too much medication and maybe they are cancelling each other out. The best thing is to talk it over with your doctor.
Hope this helps. Please stay in touch and let us know how you are doing!
