You may have to find the actual names for the drugs, but it will explain interactions.

Answer 2

The drugs you mention are not listed on the drug interaction sheet for Ritalin. If you are concerned perhaps you could wait until after you talk to your Dr. before taking any more Ritalin. It is an optional drug to increase focus for ADD, why not skip it until you feel safe.

Answer 3

You need to speak with a pharmacist for that question. You can call your local pharmacy or you can call the local poison control center if you are in the usa. 1-800-222-1222 will connect you with your local poison control/drug info center.

You will be able to talk to a pharmacist 24 hours a day.

Answer 4

I do not see any reported interactions if all of these medications are taken together, but I would still confirm with your doctor that it is ok. What I would do is give the office a call- they should have a service. Tell the service your inquiry, and your doctor will get back to you asap.

Answer 5

You really should call your doctor and let them know...do not wait. There are drug interaction checkers online, but they are not 100% reliable. Actually, even better than your doctor, is talking to a pharmacist.

Answer 6

a quick call to the pharmasist will get you the answer you need.

Answer 7

Answer 8
