I am concerned about some new medications my dr. prescribed and possible interactions.
Elavil 10mg at bedtime
Prozac 10mg 1xday
imitrex 50mg as needed
vicodin as needed

I took Elavil for the first time last night and I was very groggy this morning. I also keep reading on the internet, warnings about taking these drugs together. Can a pharmacist or physician help me out?

There is a great interactions checker at Drugs.com
http://www.drugs.com/drug_interactions.html

You just enter your medicine list, and click Check Interactions and all drug-drug and drug-food interactions come up, with an indiction of the severity of the interaction and how they should be managed.

The medicine list can also be saved - this is a great feature - so that you don't have to re-enter the meds everytime something changes.
I keep a list running for each of my parents and it works really well.
