Fluoxetine and Tramadol

My gp has prescribed me both of these to help deal with my Fibro pain but I keep repeatedly reading online and in the leaflets with the drugs that you shouldn't take them together. I feel like my GP has missed something?

Anyone else taken the two together? I'm on 20mg Fluox and try to stick to just one 50mg of Tramadol daily.

Thanks for reply Ajay. They don't seem to be keeping on eye on things though really, they've sent me away with fluoxetine to try for 2 months and wouldn't be seeing how I was in that time unless I wanted to go in myself.

Yep fluoxetine for depression as I am struggling to cope with the pain as it's gone on for way too many years now and it's really grinding me down.

Yes taking more than one drug can be owrrying why dont you speak to the pharmacy that dispensed them maybe they can guide you better.
