Interactions of medications....

Hello first of all.....

I hope that I am asking my question in the right topic area!??

I have been suffering from an anxiety disorder for several years and I am taking an antidepressant (Setraline). My question is, whether there could be any interactions with a steroid (Testosterone Enanthate). I am aware that steroids are dangerous and have side effects. But as mentioned above, I am only interested in whether they somehow influence each other.

Sincerely

Dear inquirer,

I can only advise against what you are planning to do. Testosterone alone already has so many side effects for a healthy person, just to gain a little muscle. Now you want to combine it with a mood-enhancing supplement, potentially making you more aggressive and irritable. I consider this to be unpredictable.
