Good morning Is it possible to take Velaxin (2x37.5mg) and Trittico CR (75mg) at the same time to use a treatment to cure herpes with Heviran (400mg)? And if you are taking Velaxin and Trittico, can you take ketonal - in connection with the recommendation from the dentist to take ketonal before the tooth extraction procedure and possibly after the procedure in case of severe pain?

There are no contraindications to the use of Heviran during treatment with Velaxin and Trittico CR. Concomitant use of Ketonal and Trittico CR may increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding, especially in people suffering from peptic ulcer disease. In the case of ad hoc use of Ketonal before and after tooth extraction, this risk is relatively small and is not a contraindication to the simultaneous use of both drugs. I would like to draw attention to the fact that when using Trittico CR and Velaxin at the same time, medical recommendations should be strictly followed. Their simultaneous use contrary to the doctor's instructions can lead to serious complications in the form of the so-called serotonin syndrome. In case of vomiting, headache, fever, high pressure convulsions, shortness of breath, immediate intervention of a doctor is necessary.
