I am currently taking 5mg of oxybutynin to help control excessive sweating. Would it be ok to take one 5mg percocet or would the interaction be bad? ## Have you consulted your doctor?

This interaction states the following: "MONITOR: Agents with anticholinergic properties (e.g., sedating antihistamines; antispasmodics; neuroleptics; phenothiazines; skeletal muscle relaxants; tricyclic antidepressants; disopyramide) may have additive effects when used in combination. Excessive parasympatholytic effects may result in paralytic ileus, hyperthermia, heat stroke, and the anticholinergic intoxication syndrome. Peripheral symptoms of intoxication commonly include mydriasis...
