Each drug contains certain chemicals, and sometimes if you mix them you end up with too much of a combination, or a combination that should not go together. Just like you dont put a lit match on petrol cos they dont go together. You may or may not have done any damage, only your doc can tell by the dosage you took and the frequency. So for now try and calm down and get some sleep this weekend and write down what you can remember about what you took and when which will be helpful for the doc.

You may be more likely to have a seizure (convulsions) if you take tramadol while you are using certain other medicines. Do not take tramadol without telling your doctor if you also use any of the following medications:an MAO inhibitor such as isocarboxazid (Marplan), tranylcypromine (Parnate), phenelzine (Nardil), or selegiline (Eldepryl, Emsam); or an antidepressant such as amitriptyline (Elavil), citalopram (Celexa), clomipramine (Anafranil), desipramine (Norpramin), escitalopram (Lexapro), fluoxetine (Prozac, Sarafem), fluvoxamine (Luvox), imipramine (Tofranil), nortriptyline (Pamelor); paroxetine (Paxil), or sertraline (Zoloft)

I want to know this!?I was on citalopram last year and i had a knee op while taking it and was given copious amounts of morphine and tramadol after the operation by nurses.... I can't say it did nothing, because the morphine and tramadol made me so out of it i'd have no idea!!

GENERIC NAME: citalopram BRAND NAME: Celexa DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Citalopram is an antidepressant medication that affects neurotransmitters, the chemicals that nerves within the brain use to communicate with each other. Neurotransmitters are manufactured and released by nerves and then travel and attach to nearby nerves. Thus, neurotransmitters can be thought of as the communication system of the brain. Many experts believe that an imbalance among neurotransmitters is the cause of depression. Citalopram works by preventing the uptake of one neurotransmitter, serotonin, by nerve cells after it has been released. Since uptake is an important mechanism for removing released neurotransmitters and terminating their actions on adjacent nerves, the reduced uptake caused by citalopram results in more free serotonin in the brain to stimulate nerve cells. Citalopram is in the class of drugs called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), a class that also contains fluoxetine (Prozac), paroxetine (Paxil) and sertraline (Zoloft). Citalopram was approved by the FDA in July 1998. Amitryptaline is a common misspelling of amitriptyline. If you experience symptoms of depression, your healthcare provider may recommend amitriptyline hydrochloride (Elavil®). This prescription medication is a type of tricyclic antidepressant that is thought to work by affecting several chemicals in the brain. Amitriptyline is available as a tablet and is typically taken one to three times a day. Seek medical attention immediately if you happen to overdose on amitriptyline. Symptoms of an amitriptyline overdose can include vomiting, seizures, and fever. (Click Amitriptyline to read the full eMedTV article on this topic.
