There shouldn't be a problem as long as you are taking the amount prescribed of your medications and follow the dosage information for coriciden. However.....

if you are trying to "visit Robocop.." :

Don't ever, ever use corriceden. It is filled with nasty stuff that is good in small amounts for actual colds, but when abused is very unsafe. Use Robotussin cough gels. The only active ingredient listed is Dextromethorphan Hbr.

and yes, at high levels DXM (the active ingredient in CCC's or Robotussin) can interact with SSRI's such as Zoloft and cause some nasty problems such as Seratoinin syndome, high blood pressure, heart problems, hypertension...

Buuuut as long as you are taking everything normally, you -will- be fine!

Hope you feel better soon. :)

What side effects can taking Adderall zoloft and corricidin cold and cough have?

Well the drug in cold and cough medicines that makes you "trip" is dextromorphan or DXM for short. Taking dextromorphan with sertraline(zoloft) can cause serotonin syndrome, which is pretty dangerous and the medicine information that came with my zoloft says it can be fatal. I also think that your not supposed to take adderal with zoloft either, probably for the same reasons, but Im not sure about that one. Just google drug interactions between the things you might be taking. Gotta be on the safe side with medicine!

What is Coricidin?

Coricidin, or CoricidinHBP (for high blood pressure), is the name of a drug marketed by Schering-Plough that contains dextromethorphan (a cough suppressant) and chlorphenamine maleate (an antihistamine). Varieties of Coricidin may also contain acetaminophen (an analgesic/fever reducer) and guaifenesin (an expectorant). The drug is marketed as a remedy for the common cold, especially for people with hypertension, whose high blood pressure may worsen if they take other decongestants. Coricidin Cough and Cold is commonly taken recreationally because it contains Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide which when taken in large doses produces dissociative or psychadelic effects. The average dose is 6-16 pills (the box says dont ingest more than 4 in one day) and ive read of doses of up to 64 pills in a single day. Dextromethorphan alone is not particularly dangerous to most people until reaching amounts much higher than any typical recreational dose. Coricidin Cough and Cold contains an antihistamine as well called Chlorphenamine Maleate. This is the stuff which makes Coricidin dangerous. Many people have had moderate - severe adverse reactions to large amounts of Chlorphenamine Maleate absorbed when the pills are taken, and alot of people have died from overuse.
