Drug Interactions

there are a lot of medication options. And something else to consider is that narcoleptics often suffer from additional issues like: restless legs syndrome, apnea, and cataplexy, which may require their own medications. I have been diagnosed with narcolepsy for over 12 years and in that time i have taken ritalin: This did keep me awake but i had to take it 3 times a day, and I wasn't great about taking them at the exact right times. And if i didn't take them at the exact time i was supposed to, i would really feel a "crash". I decided that the ups and downs were to extreme. But many people take it and it works for them. I think it's important to learn about the options and then try one and see how it works for YOU. Everyone responds differently. Dexedrine: this worked well to keep me awake but I occasionally felt like i was buzzing and I didn't like the research that i was reading about the affects that amphetimenes can have on your body. So i looked for an alternative. Provigil: much better! This is great for me, it is not an amphetimine and I think it does a much better job of keeping me awake and stablized. I currently take a generic version that is 100% fine. Unfortunately the greedy drug manufacturing companies in the US have actually paid generic drug manufacturers NOT to make a generic of provigil, so i have to order it from Canada. The price is much better and the quality is the same, they mail the pills to me, and the customer service is fantastic.

Abilify increases the effectiveness of certain drugs that work on your nervous system and brain. So no. I took darvocet and abilify and ended up having odd OCD type of thoughts and had so much nervous energy w/a broken bone. Not good.

Yes those are safe. You can take antibiotics and antidepressants together. Remember to take all of your amoxicillin even after you start feeling better. You want to kill all of the bacteria and not leave any hiding inside your body!

Yes.

A few years ago my doctor was prescribing me both at the same time. (Xanax for PTSD and codeine for pain, each to be taken several times daily.)

For common drug interactions, visit: http://www.drugdigest.org/DD/Interaction/ChooseDrugs/1,4109,,00.html There, you can "plug in" different drugs and find out if there are any known interactions. You really need to ask a pharmacist to be sure. Don't gamble with drugs, drug combinations or your health. Call your local drug store. They'll be glad to assist. ~ T

that's poisinous you could die.....................................................................................................................just kidding.

you can take aspirin with anything but alchohal

St Johns Wort has the same affect as 5HTP,they are both precursors of serotonin. Serotonin being the precursor to Melatonin. Keeping it simple if you take melatonin then start on a low dosage 1.5mg-3mg taking . Larger doses not being analogous to being more affective. Also if your body is low in Melatonin then it will work. If you find you take it and it doesn't have the desired affect with in a short time then your body has enough Melatonin and is not the reason you are experiencing sleep problems and you don't need it. Also some people report experiencing depression and dark moods with melatonin this possibly due to the body not requiring the extra melatonin. It may be better to try supplementing them separately to see which works best. Some people do well on only 5HTP. It is interesting to note that 5HTP-serotonin are produced during the day ready to be converted when darkness sets to be transformed into Melatonin. Also there is a very strong connection with Vitamin D deficiency and insomnia and depression. Vitamin D is the Sunshine hormone so that would also be worth looking into. A deficiency in the daytime hormones or their precursors can affect melatonin levels. Just take note of how you react to each one separately and base your judgment on that.

Well u could but i wouldnt recommend as it wont do any btr than swallowing it, if even that.

Yes I asked the pharmacist if this was ok and he assured me it was fine

best no avoid as it is also a blood thinner

You might take acetaminophen with ibuprofen. You might take acetaminophen with Naprosyn. But you CAN'T take ibuprofen and naproxen (Naprosyn) together, as long as both drugs are NSAID and works on the same receptors. Naproxen is a little bit more powerful than ibuprofen.

There would not be any major problems, apart from becoming slightly more drowsy than you might otherwise get from either.

It depends on what drugs you may be taken because the drugs would be interacting with the nutrients. Your best (and safest) bet would be to ask a pharmacist if there are any interactions listed between the drugs and supplements you're taking. Doctors and pharmacists both have access to a database of drug and supplement interactions and they can tell you quickly if you can safely take them together or not.... anyone here will just have a best guess from searching on the internet (which isn't always accurate, as we all know) ;-)

i really need to know the answer to this question also. my ear is very stuffy and i cant hear out of it, but the doctor already put me on Cefprozil (Cefzil) for my OTHER ear infection from two days ago. this one just started a few hours ago. im pretty sure mucinex will help the stuffiness in my ear. i just don't know if i can take it with cefzil.

yes it can. i take a 10mg melatonin everyday to help with my insomnia, snd my girlfriend has trazzy's. i took one a 50mg and it worked better than 3 shots of tequila. woke up really late tho. that's about the only bad side effect.

It's never safe to take heroin....well that's what they say. I found heroin to be quite safe, in any amount, and have absolutely no interaction whatsoever with my hefty prescription regimen. It has enhanced my life in many ways. Dean's list, love life off the charts, and it has opened my eyes to philanthropic pursuits. Obviously those who claim it's addicting have never tried it. All in all, heroin is obviously a wonder drug the pharmaceutical cartel would bad mouth lest they lose their inestimable profits. Is that a needle hanging from my arm? (Why'd my mother leave me?) Gotta go now.

Ibuprofen can be taken or prescribed alongside amoxicillin. There are no known side effects as the liver functions are thought to be within the normal operating limits with ingestion of these medications. However, it is advisable to seek professional medical advice when dealing with drugs.

Duragesic (Fentanyl Transdermal) patches are used for Primary Chronic Pain; they last for up to 3 days depending on the patient and tolerance level. For example, I'm one of a small percentage of the population that only gets 48 hours from my patches, and that's due to my high tolerance level - I've been using them for 9 years.

Percocet (Oxycodone and Tylenol) is used for Breakthrough Pain - Breakthrough Pain is that pain which the patient feels after activity causes pain being controlled by the patches to exceed the pain controlling capability of the Fentanyl. Percocet, being an Acute pain drug, is used to compensate for the temporary increase in pain.

The combination of Fentanyl patches and Percocet is very common - I myself have used the combination in varying strengths and doses for a very long time. While I'm currently using the strongest doses available, at times I've had to increase my dosages and augment them with other opiates such as Demerol and MS Contin.

Yes.

yes i take oxycodone with it and serazone and ativan..

The medicine Prochlorperazin and Co-codamol can be took in the same day. I would suggest that you take the two medicines 4 hours apart.

Generally speaking, no. Some airlines may allow beverages purchased within the "secure area" (i.e. the gate area after the security checkpoint) to be carried on board, but they're not required to and if the gate agent tells you you can't take your drink on board you'll have to either finish it there or throw it away.

Combining drugs and alcohol can worsen the disease. One should not drink alcohol while taking Fosfomycin Trometamol. While taking any drugs, staying away from alcohol is the best.

Death

There is no manufacturer-listed drug incompatibility between these two medicines, and the combination is often recommended by physicians.
