Can I take Abametapir (topical) with Dextromethorphan?

Drug Interactions Dextromethorphan: Hyperpyrexia, hypotension, and death have been reported coincident with the coadministration of monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors and products containing dextromethorphan. Thus, concomitant administration of promethazine with dextromethorphan and MAO inhibitors should be avoided (see CONTRAINDICATIONS ).

This is general interaction text from the label of a product that contains Dextromethorphan. It does not mention Abametapir (topical), so it does not show how Abametapir (topical) and Dextromethorphan affect each other. The verdict above comes from the GoDavaii interaction dataset. Ask your pharmacist to check both medicines' labels before you combine them.

Questions to ask your pharmacist

• Does Abametapir (topical) change how Dextromethorphan works, or the other way round?
• Should I take Abametapir (topical) and Dextromethorphan at different times of day?
• Which side effects should I watch for while taking both?
• Is there a better option if this combination does not suit me?

• Always tell your doctor/pharmacist about ALL medicines you take - prescriptions, OTC, supplements, and herbal products.
• Keep a current medicine list with doses and timings - photo on your phone is enough.
• Read medicine labels for timing (with food / empty stomach) before combining.
• Even 'safe' combinations need monitoring - note any unusual symptoms in the first few days.
• Use GoDavaii AI to double-check before adding any new medicine, supplement, or desi ilaaj.
