I was looking up online on some bodybuilding forums and some people said that you can't take arginine or valine with Zoloft.
I also went to a chemist / pharmacy and asked if I could take amino acids with Zoloft and they said it was fine. They didn't tell me I couldn't take Phenylanine or Tryptophan with the medication even though it said on the paper you get with the medication. So if they thought I could take the Phenylanine and Tryptophan with the medication then they have no clue about what I can take with the meds.
Can anyone help me please. The chemist told me it was fine to take amino acids yet it states on the medication paper that I can't take tryptophan or phenylanine with them.
On the peice of paper which I got with the medication. It doesn't say I can't take arginine or valine or tyrosine, yet when I research those certain amino acids. There are lots of articles and information saying they interact or block or produce more of the serotonin effect's of the medication.
Anyway: should be just fine. Any dough call your doctor, but I have seen these or several different ordered by the doctor have a great weekend.

SNIFF28 your pharmacist is correct and I CHECKED 3 different sites encluding the one here. Which are's did not find any Interactions the web md came up with minor interaction which was okay all it was is a slight difference in serotonin They list them as minor which this was and moderate and major Interaction.The only thing that came up was a minor interaction which I put above and it did not raise the serotonin enough to worry about.At this time I take a serotonin Medication also and my doctor about 2 months ago put me on several amino acids and all is well. So I am sure that it is not enough of a interaction if your still worried call your doctor and get another opinion.
