Can I combine Spamilan (25mg) and Seronil (60mg)? This combination of drugs was prescribed to me by a psychiatrist, but after consulting a second doctor, such a combination of drugs was strongly discouraged. I suffer from anxiety neurosis.

As with other drugs that affect serotonin levels, the use of buspirone (Spamilan) and fluoxetine (Seronil) at the same time can increase the risk of developing the so-called serotonergic syndrome, which is characterized by symptoms such as mental disorders, movement disorders, increased muscle tone, fever and cardiovascular disorders. Therefore, before the simultaneous use of buspirone and fluoxetine, you should consult with the attending physician and take medications according to his instructions. It is also important to maintain an appropriate interval between medications of at least 2-3 hours. Fluoxetine may increase the level of buspirone in the blood, which may lead to increased side effects such as drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, nausea and headache - if you notice this effect while taking both medicines, please consult your doctor immediately. The final decision on the use of both drugs or not should be made with a specialist.
