Is Pristiq Advisable While On Losartan And Crestor?

I ve been on 200 mg trazadone over 10 years for anxiety and sleep. I ve been on 50 mg tramadol 4 times daily for 2 years for back pain. Recently prescribed pristiq 50 mg as a new antidepressant for my chronic depression from physiatrist which I haven t taken yet. I have high blood pressure controlled with 100 mg losartin. 10mg Crestor for high cholesterol, 61 yr old female. Should I be concerned with drug interaction? Is there a better antidepressant out there?

Hi,

You can safely take Pristiq while on Losartan and Crestor. It will not interact with each other or does not cause any adverse events.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
