According to the Walgreens pharmacist, not pharmacy tech, yes. Check out this list of well known drug interactions with mucinex. http://www.bjchealth.org/?id=5488&sid=3 On the mucinex box, it says to not take with maoi's. Given the two sources and a bronchitis infection driving me crazy, I took one mucinex pill hours ago. I'm fine, no symptoms, nothing. I take the same dosage of sertraline (generic). Hope this helps.

Can you take mucinex while taking methadone?

YES, it is safe to take Mucinex while taking Methadone. I contacted a pharmacist to confirm that it is safe, because I needed to know the same thing. They told me it is safe but they wouldn't take them directly together. She said to wait like an hour or so between each medicine. Then she said that is a good rule of thumb for any medications that you are taking. So yes, you can take them together just wait an hour in between.


Can you take mucinex Prednisone and amoxicillin together?

The drugs are often given together for acute (very bad initiially) upper respiratory infection with wheezing or inflammation. The prednisone very quickly opens airways for better breathing. The amoxicillin is for infection, the most common ones in the upper breathing areas. The mucinex will thin the mucus which also has dead and live bacteria in it so that the antibiotic can work better. Mucinex also help you cough up or blow out this mucus.


Can you take citalopram with mucinexdm?

I have seen the two taking together but you put yourself at risk for Serotonin Syndrome if you take Mucinex DM. Symptoms to look for are agitation, sweating, increased heart rate, and increased body temperature. Citalopram is less likely to cause this effect compared to other medications in this class, but I would still advise that you contact your physician or pharmacist to find an alternative agent that does not have dextromethorphan (DM).

Is mucinex dm safe to take while breastfeeding?

There are some who say it is not safe and others who say it is. The best thing to do is to ask your doctors. Here are the responses: No. Mucinex DM is not safe to take while pregnant. The plain Mucinex without the decongestant (DM) is safe to take. No. Mucinex DM is not safe to take while pregnant. The plain Mucinex without the decongestant (DM) is safe to take. The "DM" portion of the medication is not a decongestant. It stands for Dextromethorphan which is a cough suppressant...and which (in the form of Robitussin DM) is considered safe by many OB doctors. Mucinex DM is safe during pregnancy. Had the same issue today actually. 12 weeks pregnant and unsure of what to take. Went to CVS without my cell so I couldn't call my OB. I asked the pharmacist and he said mucinex DM would be best. He recommended not taking anything with sudafed or phenylephrine in it, which rules out any type of Tylenol cold medicine. Mucinex DM is not a decongestant, its a cough suppressant. Mucinex D is the decongestant. If you're congested and coughing, take the Mucinex DM for the cough and a saline nasal spray for the congestion. Pharmacist recommended method.

Can you take NyQuil while taking citalopram?

I recently was prescribed to take citalopram and have since contracted some sort of flu/cough. I was nervous to take anything because they had warned me of the ill effects of ibuprofen and other such OTC's when mixed with citalopram. However, I spoke with my doctor who informed me that most of the problems involve thinner blood and mostly affect older or less healthy individuals. I am 21 years old on citalopram for 4 months, and took a combination of dayquil and NyQuil to relieve the symptoms and experienced no problems. I in no way am a professional nor am I qualified to give professional advice, I would highly recommend talking to your prescribing doctor before taking anything along with your citalopram.
