Does anyone take Lexapro, Klonopin along with a PPI like Protonix for GERD? I do not see a drug interaction between Protonics and Lexapro, but I would like to know if anyone is taking this combination of medication. I see a drug interaction between Nexium and Lexapro and increase chance of Serotonin Syndrom. I take 15mg Lexapro & 1mg of Klonopin daily.
Thanks
I take Protonix along with my antidepressant and use to take Klonopin. I use to take omeprazole (similar to Nexium) and these same medications without ill effect. Protonix does not carry the same interactions as esomeprazole and I think you will be fine to take your list of medications.

Do you kind if I ask how many milligrams of Protonix you are taking? Also, what SSRI do you take please?
I take 40mgs of Protonix once daily. I also am on two different antidepressants, one is a DNRI while the other is a SNRI. The SNRI's are like SSRI's in that they both affect serotonin. The SNRI also affects norepinephrine. I've taken a PPI for many years with my antidepressants.
