Interactions between your drugs
amitriptyline FLUoxetine
Applies to: amitriptyline, fluoxetine
Talk to your doctor before using amitriptyline and FLUoxetine. This combination may cause sedation, dry mouth, blurred vision, constipation, and urinary retention. In addition, combining these medications can increase the risk of a rare but serious condition called the serotonin syndrome, which may include symptoms such as confusion, hallucination, seizure, extreme changes in blood pressure, increased heart rate, fever, excessive sweating, shivering or shaking, blurred vision, muscle spasm or stiffness, tremor, incoordination, stomach cramp, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Severe cases may result in coma and even death. In general, you should wait at least 14 days after stopping amitriptyline before you start treatment with FLUoxetine. Conversely, if you have recently been on FLUoxetine and are now starting treatment with amitriptyline, you should check with your doctor or pharmacist to see how long you should wait before it is safe for you to use amitriptyline, as some antidepressants can take a while to clear from your body.
