Is It Safe To Take Lexapro And Clonidine After Smoking Crystal Methamphetamine?
Hi. I m not an avid crystal methamphetamine smoker. But I ve smoked quite a bit in the last 48 hours. And in fact I believe im still high even though it s been more than 12 hours. I m prescribed lexapro 10mg. And clonidine 0.1 mg. And I wanted to know if it would be safe to take these in a few hours when I come down? .... Or any other options?? Thank you.

Hello,
Intake of Clonidine is not associated with any interaction when consumed after crystal Methamphetamine. As the meth is CNS stimulant and Lexapro is Clonazepam, CNS depressant, it will reverse the actions of Meth earlier than predicted. So if your intention of consuming Meth is over as pleasure level or else, you can consume Lexapro for sure, otherwise delay its intake for couple of hours.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
