nausea 6 hours after taking meds every night?

[♥ cat furrever ♥]

The past couple weeks, around 3 am...I get extremely nauseous and feel like I'm going to puke. This is about 6 hours after I take my evening meds so I'm thinking it may have something to do with that? It lasts a couple hours. I started taking Lamictal about two months ago and I'm still on a low dose (100 mg) could it be that that is causing my nausea? Or maybe it's interacting with one of my other medications? In the evening, I take: Cymbalta, Buspar, Lamictal, Prevacid, Vesicare and Ortho Tri Cylcen.

It can absoulutely be one of your medications, or a combination.
Contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Yeah, it could be any of those combos. Are you taking the prevacid for reflux or gastroparesis? Reflux can cause mid-sleep nausea w/o actual acid reflux, especially if you're taking a medication for it.

Taking meds (that require it) with food and those that need an empty stomach w/o food?

It's for acid reflux...but most of the time, I'm still up at 3 am and all. I have bad insomnia. =[

I'd add taking them with plenty of water. If cymbalta lodges in your throat it burns.
