>Hi Jane,

I've been taking Ultram in various dosages for about a year, right now I take 2 or 3 tablets per day for chronic pain. When the psychiatrist changed my antidepressant from Effexor to nortriptylene he warned me that the combination could cause seizures; that he had a patient in the hospital who had suffered a seizure from such a combination. So he asked me to reduce the Ultram as I increased the nortrip. Well, that kind of scared me but not enough to cut back. I asked the neurologist about it a couple of weeks ago and he said he has never had a problem with Ultram in combination with antidepressants and told me not to worry. I think I would have had a seizure by now anyway if it was going to happen. Just Ultram by itself causes seizures in some people.

Liz
