Hard to say: There are a number of different NyQuil formulations & a number of different Neocitran formulations. I am sure that there is a lot of overlap in the products - but can't determine what they are without more specific product information.

Will anything bad or seriously harmful happen if I take NyQuil a few hours after cocaine? I understand NyQuil is not a sleep medication... however I'm trying to find out if the two will react negatively in the body. Thank you?
