Can Nortriptyline And Nyquil Be Taken Together?

Hello, I was recently prescribed Nortriptoline for head pain, and began taking 10mg capsule at bed time on Wednesday March 14. I now have a very bad cold and cough and want to check inter action with Nyquil from what I can see I don t think I can take it. Thank you.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.



It is better not to take the two medications together as this can, dangerously increase serotonin levels in your body or cause too much drowsiness.
