Taking co-dydramol with other medicines and herbal supplements

Some medicines can affect the way co-dydramol works.

Tell your doctor or speak to a pharmacist before starting to take co-dydramol if you take:

• sleeping pills or tranquillisers
• antidepressants
• medicines to stop you feeling sick or vomiting, such as domperidone or metoclopramide
• medicines to help prevent blood clots, such as warfarin
• antihistamines
• epilepsy medicines
• antipsychotics
• medicines to treat tuberculosis (TB)
• medicines to treat anxiety

There's not enough information to say that complementary medicines, and herbal remedies and supplements are safe to take with co-dydramol. They're not tested in the same way as pharmacy and prescription medicines. They're generally not tested for the effect they have on other medicines.

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you're taking any other medicines, including herbal remedies, vitamins or supplements.
