Yes, alcohol usage can interfere with primidone, a medication primarily used to treat seizures and essential tremors. Alcohol may enhance the sedative effects of primidone, leading to increased drowsiness, dizziness, or impaired coordination. Additionally, combining alcohol with primidone can increase the risk of side effects and may reduce the medication's effectiveness. It is advisable to consult a healthcare provider regarding alcohol consumption while on primidone.
The active metabolites of primidone are phenobarbital and phenylmethylmalonamide (PEMA), both barbiturate-type compounds with anticonvulsant and sedative properties.
Primidone is supplied in chewable tablets (in Canada), tablets to be swallowed whole, and in suspension (syrup) forms for oral administration.
