Is it safe for me to take Lipozene while i'm on Prednisone? ## Hello, Ron! How are you? Lipozene is not an actually medication, it is an over the counter supplement, so it has not been checked for possible interactions with them. Prednisone can cause some pretty serious side effects itself, such as nausea, headache, elevated heart rate, elevated blood pressure and fluid retention, so it's likely best not to add anything you're unsure of, while taking it. Is there anything else I can help with?

Developed a sinus infection and was prescribed Sulfameth/TMP antibiotics and was told not to take HUMIRA until finished. Not sure how long to wait.. thhank you ## Did you ask your doctor? There aren't any interactions listed that I can find, so I'm not sure of the specifics. I'd assume it should be at least 24 hours after you finish the antibiotic, but you should check with your doctor or pharmacist to be safe.

I take Wellbutrin and amphetamine. Is this ok with TBX free? Is there any reason I can't take these medications together? ## Has anyone used TBX Free while taking antidepressants? If so did you have problems? I'm worried about complications. ## I was unfortunately unable to locate any specific reference of a drug interaction between TBX and other medications, I think, primarily because its active ingredient (Cytisine) is a plant derived alkaloid that's non-existent in standard Western medical literature. That said, if it were me I'd probably try to get in touch with the prescribing doctor as well as a naturopathic doctor just to cover all bases. Please post back with any updates on how things work out. ## I ordered some TBX free online to stop smoking. When I received it...

I'm on Ativan for anxiety and i have taken 1 and a half mgs in the last 4-5 hours. Im really struggling with abdominal pain and bloating. Is it safe to take Gas X with my ativan? ## Hello, Aj! How are you? I didn't find any interactions or problems listed between them, but it's always best to double check such information to be sure. The FDA classifies Ativan as a benzodiazepine, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Is there anything else I can help with? ## But aren't u taking the gas x to get rid of the gas?? Ativan is to calm u down. U may find that Ativan actually is constipating. Most meds that slow ur CNS/ make u sleep or relaxed, slow that part of ur body down too. If u ha...

what drugs are compatable with soma ? I have been told not to take tramadol with it , What about lyrica? ## No one here is qualified to answer your question(s) with absolute certainty. Why not check with a Medical doctor? ## Hello, Cathy! How are you? I didn't find any interactions listed between Soma and Lyrica, but it's always best to double check such information to be sure. The main issue is that Soma has an effect on serotonin levels in the brain, so it may be dangerous to combine it with other medications that also have an effect on it, such as Tramadol, because it creates the risk of Serotonin Syndrome, which could be fatal. Lyrica, however, does not affect serotonin, it works on different brain chemicals. Where there other drugs that you wanted you to check? ## Sorry to ...

can you take zicam and claritan ## zicam with klonopin and luvox? ## Can Zicam be safely used with rheumatoid arthritis drugs methotrexate and Enbrel? ## There are quite a few products that carry the Zicam name, so these questions actually can't be answered, without knowing the specific one that you're asking about. You can learn more Zicam details here. As you can see in the information at the link I've provided, it's actually a family of products, most of which used Zinc in them, but since they have different ingredients, more details would need to be known to see if it's safe to use with any given medication. If anyone would like to post with more details on the specific formulation, I'll gladly see what I can find for you. Are there any comments or questions?

I just started taking sympicort for copd. Can I take tums, ibuprofen, tylenol, or bc powders with this medicine? I am googleing it and it never tells me if I can or not. ## Hello, Amy! How are you? While you are always welcome to ask here, if you wish to research for yourself in the future, look for an interaction checker. That will help you find the information you need. Now, as to the medications in question… No, on the Ibuprofen, it increased the toxicity of the ingredients in the Symbicort. It may cause the Tums to not work as well, since you won't retain an absorb as much of it as usual. As the to BC powders, I can't check those, without knowing the specific ones to check their ingredients. Can you please post back and clarify? Thank you! The FDA lists the typical sid...

My son is on Gabspentin, and also on Paxil, he is getting the blurry vision, do you know of drugs interactions that are negative? ## Both of these medications can cause dizziness as side effects, so that could account for it. Otherwise, I would ask how much Gabapentin he is taking? The blurred vision is usually only experienced by those who are taking to much. Has anyone spoken to his doctor about this? The only reported interaction between the two is that they both can cause depression of the central nervous system, so anyone using them together should be closely monitored by a doctor on a regular basis.

Is this drug safe to take with gabapentin 600 mg? Also what dosage? How often can it be taken? ## Does Rumoquin N.F. interact with Metoprolol 25 mg or Atorvastatin 40 mg ## @Brownie, Rumoquin NF contains a combination of diclofenac, methocarbamol and dexamethasone. Because these are all prescribed drugs, the doctor who is prescribing them to you should be aware of anything else you are taking alongside them. If your doctor didn't give you any dosing advice, I would recommend calling him/her asap. Ironically, according to the University of Maryland Medical Center (umm.edu / drug interaction tool), diclofenac and dexamethasone have a "high interaction potential"; that is to say it is NOT recommended you take them together, which I find odd since they are both included in the s...

I am currently taking high blood pressure medication - Verapamil, 120 mg...is it alright to take with this medication? Also...is A 45 good for gum inflamation? ## I thought I'd already answered this, but I am unsure if I'm too old to remember if I did and this is a duplicate post, or not. LOL Anyway, the capsule with the A 45 marking contains 500mgs of Amoxicillin, which is an antibiotic that's used to treat various types of infections. Learn more Amoxicillin details here.

I didn't find any problems or interactions listed between these two medications, but it's always best to double check such information to be careful. Is her pharmacy aware that she's taking both?
