What other drugs will affect chlorpheniramine and pseudoephedrine?
 | Do not take chlorpheniramine and pseudoephedrine if you have taken a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) such as isocarboxazid (Marplan), phenelzine (Nardil), or tranylcypromine (Parnate) in the last 14 days. A drug interaction could occur, leading to serious side effects. |
Do not take other over-the-counter cough, cold, allergy, diet, or sleep aids while taking chlorpheniramine and pseudoephedrine without first talking to your doctor or pharmacist. Other medications may also contain chlorpheniramine, pseudoephedrine, or other similar drugs. You may accidentally take too much of these medicines.
Chlorpheniramine and pseudoephedrine may increase the effects of other drugs that cause drowsiness, including antidepressants, alcohol, other antihistamines, pain relievers, anxiety medicines, seizure medicines, and muscle relaxants. Dangerous sedation, dizziness, or drowsiness may occur if chlorpheniramine and pseudoephedrine is taken with any of these medications.
Drugs other than those listed here may also interact with chlorpheniramine and pseudoephedrine. Talk to your doctor and pharmacist before taking any prescription or over-the-counter medicines, including vitamins, minerals, and herbal products.
