There are important interactions between duloxetine and Doxepin.
The combination of both medicines may lead to an increase in the effects of Doxepin.
In this case, you may feel: excessive sedation, drowsiness, dizziness, difficulty concentrating, thinking, assessing the situation. There is also a risk of the appearance of the so-called serotonin syndrome, which is dangerous.
Agitation, high fever, high blood pressure, seizures, hallucinations or other worrying symptoms are indications for urgent contact with a doctor.
If your medicines have been prescribed by different doctors, you will need to consult to see if the medicines can be used at the same time and if you need to change your dosage.
When the medication is prescribed by the same doctor, the prescribed dosage schedule must be followed.
If there is such a possibility, it is always recommended to take a break between medications at least 100 minutes. 30min.
I am attaching information about the possibility of using teleconsultations:
