Drug Interaction Report

Ask your doctor before using sulfaSALAzine together with varicella virus vaccine. Using these medications together may be associated with Reye's syndrome. Reye's syndrome is a sudden, sometimes fatal, disease of the brain with degeneration of the liver and occurs in children (most cases 4-12 years of age). If you are receiving varicella virus vaccine and less than 18 years of age you should avoid the use of sulfaSALAzine for six weeks after immunization with varicella virus vaccine. 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.
