Fluoxetine and cold meds

Hi guya i am full if cold and got an awful cough just wondering can i take and cough meds ir cold meds lemsips etc xxx

Im sure I remember seeing somewhere that some of the ingredients in cold/ flu medicine don't mix well with fluoxetine... Although I can't be 100% sure. Sorry your feeling unwell. Maybe try paracetamol to help with the cold? Perfectly safe. Hope you feel better soon xx

Hi Star,

I’ve taken cough drops.  The other medicines you have to be careful with.  If you can call a pharmacy and ask them, they should be able to tell you which ones are safe to take.
