This is important because Allergosan may change the activity of some medicines or, conversely, some medicines may change its effects. Concomitant use of Allergosan with atropine and atropine-like agents may increase the risk of adverse reactions such as urinary retention, constipation, dry mouth.
It is also possible to enhance the effect of sedatives, hypnotics, other anti-allergic (antihistamines) and alcohol, therefore such combinations with Allergosan should be avoided. Tricyclic antidepressants (amitriptyline, imipramine) may increase the sedative effect and its side effects. Concomitant use with MAO inhibitors (moclobemide) may cause an increase in side effects. An interval of two weeks is required after discontinuation of monoamine oxidase inhibitors.
