Posted on Fri, 2 Jun 2017
Question: I have taken Celexa for years for depression. It lost working for me so my doctor changed me to trimtellix 20 ml. I also use Fentany patches, a new one every three days. Will these two items make a person's body ich like crazy, and if they do, do they every quit making one itch?

Brief Answer:
It is possible with fentanyl

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

First of all I like to inform you that both Clelexa and trintellix have similar side effect profile and it is unlikely to cause itching by trintellix if it was not caused by celexa while using for years.

Regarding fentanyl patch it may cause allergic dermatitis leading to itching.

If the causative patches are stopped itching will go away.

I do not think both are counter active and do not interfere with side effect as well as effects of each other.

I hope this answers you.
Thanks and regards.
