i took trazodone and Oxycontin concurrently for several years with no major side effects. this does not mean that it is "ok," but my doctors did not voice any concerns or warn me about reporting any possible reactions.

remember, though, that everyone's body chemistry is different, and what works well for one person can put another person into a coma, thus this question is best asked of the pharmacist or MD(s) who prescribed the two medications. pharmacists tend to be more patient and forthcoming, but it is important for the doctor(s) to take responsibility for their decision(s) regarding your care.

if the prescriptions are from two different doctors, be sure all of your medical professionals know what is being prescribed for you. DO NOT leave it up to the pharmacist to catch any counter-productive interactions. while it is their job to do so, it is really the responsibility of your MDs and other prescribers to know your FULL prescription history and which drugs you are currently taking. otherwise they are not able to do their best work. despite the "rewards" bestowed upon some folks in medical malpractice suits, it is the patient, not their hired medical practioners, who is ultimately responsible for communicating with each member of their medical team, and ensuring that all parties are aware of all practices performed by each team member.

in my humble lay opinion, it is often the patient who causes many of the poor decisions medical professionals make in their care, so be careful and ask each member of your team this question and all others like it. you may just find that this combination is fine, but reduces or increases the effectiveness of another drug you are taking; an over the counter drug you may take; or even interacts with certain types of food you may eat or drink.

best advice: NEVER take anything for granted, no matter how often doctors roll their eyes at you! :-) better ridiculed than rushed to the ED! never be afraid to call back to the office and ask later, either.

hope this helps you.

When prescribed by your doctor the combination can be taken. My doctor has me on oxycodone 4xs a day plus trazodone before bed to help me sleep. I have been on opiates for a long time and have a high tolerence. I think if you're not used to CNS depressive medications then you will be more sensitive to the both of them together. There is a moderate interaction between narcotics and SSRIs so they should be used together with caution. Call a pharmacy and ask just to be safe. Good luck

Oh my God! One is an opiate and the other amphetamine. I don't know the answer but my son takes adderol and I would not even chance giving him both. I know that when he takes an opiate he gets uncontrollably angry. I would not want him that angry and on adderol. If anyone does know the answer please put it on here.

Central nervous system- and/or respiratory-depressant effects may be additively or synergistically increased in patients taking multiple drugs that cause these effects, especially in elderly or debilitated patients.

You never know what could happen when you mix Hydroxyzine and Percocet. Only your doctor can advise you on mixing prescription medications. Every person is different and drug interactions can vary from person to person.
