Question 3

is it okay to take nyquil if you take nortriptyline, paxil, hydrochlorothiazide but not all at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Better avoid: You didn't mention which nyquil preparation, at any rate all contain an antihistaminic which interacts with paxil and nortriptyline, timing isn't the issue as all stay in your system for prolonged hours. You want to revise all your meds with your prescriber for dosage adjustments and monitoring as paxil nortriptyline and hdrocholrothiazide do interact, so better see your doctor, best wishes

Question 7

is it ok to take ambien (zolpidem) and clonazepam at the same time?

Accepted Answer

No.: You haven’t said what your doses are or what time. If you take them both at bedtime, then you increase the risk of behavioral and cognitive adverse effects, which zolpidem is notorious for. (Above all, don’t add alcohol.) And there can be a first time, when problems haven’t happened previously. Instead, discuss with your prescriber an alternative approach to your sleep problem.

Question 8

can i take my 2mg of klonopin and my 50mg of hydroxyzine and my 750mg of robaxin (methocarbamol) at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Too much sedation: Too many similar meds with sedative properties taken at once. Why are you on all of these? There must be a better way.

Question 9

i take 300 milligrams of neurontin (gabapentin) and 3 milligrams of klonopin each day at the same time.  or do they cancel each other out?

Accepted Answer

OK to do.   Ask: your prescribing MD about this, but these two meds are not mutually negating.

Question 10

i'm going to start a clonazepam taper. i take .5mg in the morning and the same at night. what would be a starting dose of melatonin to use?

Accepted Answer

Melatonin 5mg: Melatonin is available over the counter in many different dosages.  There is no standard dosage, however I usually recommend starting with 5mg for an adult dosage.  You could go up to 10mg but above 10mg there is not usually much more benefit.  I'm glad to hear that you are tapering the clonazepam.  I'm always a fan of discontinuing regular use of it because it works best when taken only as needed
