Yes, but...: This drug has several important drug-drug interactions and is totally contraindicated for use with some other meds. It should not be used in children because it might get into the spinal fluid. Read the information you got with the medication carefully and take it only as recommended. Ginger works well for nausea also, and has much fewer adverse effects.
