Drug Interaction Report

Using mecamylamine together with sodium bicarbonate may increase the effects of mecamylamine and lower your blood pressure or cause mental status changes. Low blood pressure can cause dizziness or feeling like you might pass out, especially when getting up from a sitting or lying position. Talk with your doctor before using mecamylamine and sodium bicarbonate together. You may need a dose adjustment or need your blood pressure checked more often if you take both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
