- If you are worried about any of your medicines, seek immediate medical attention.
- Active
ingredients in medicines can ‘clash’. So, taking more than one medicine
at the same time can increase the risk of side effects. - Tell your doctor about all the medicines you are taking. You may like to have an annual review of all your medications.
Drinking alcohol with some medicines can also cause unwanted (and sometimes dangerous) side effects. For example:
- Alcohol can cause drowsiness or dizziness when taken with (some) antihistamines, antidepressants, sleeping tablets or medicines for anxiety.
- Alcohol can affect medicines for high blood pressure and travel sickness.
- When
alcohol is mixed with strong prescription medicines like opioid pain
medicines, the combination can increase the chances of overdose. Alcohol with opioids can slow down a person’s breathing rate and lead to drowsiness and loss of consciousness. - Consult your Doctor if to many pills are given is changing your Body
