Question: How do you know if it's dangerous to mix certain medications!?
I've searched google, but I'm having trouble finding anything!. I'm prescribed a few very strong medications and though I have been warned off a few, I don't have like a list of medications that if you mix them, it could be dangerous!. I know I could call my doctor and ask, but that's a pain in the *** if there's a way I can simply look it up online!.

You want to save your life and health and money, right!? Then, dont' be penny-wise and pound-foolish!. Go ask your doctor!. Don't ever think of saving on doctor's fees because even by a cursory reading of literature inside medicine boxes, and bottles, there are contra-indications, and possible effects, if one medicine is taken together with another one!. You must be very wary of those possible reactions in your body alone!. Think allergic reactions!.Then, much more if you ingest other medicines not prescribed to you!. Even in your own bathroom, you are advised not to mix detergents, or the usual disinfectants because they produce chemical reactions, and emit gases which are harmful to humans!. If people could ONLY rely fully on online, then I should not have spent a lot for my two kids who graduated from medical schools!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Having worked in a pharmacy, I'd say just call a pharmacist, its not a big deal, and it takes two seconds!. Not to say you are, but if they are someone else's that you have too, do the same, no one is going to harass you about information!. As far as websites go, I really would take a professionals advice, because if the off chance that there is a serious problem a website won't help you!. Talk to someone who gets paid to answer medication questions, it isn't that hard!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
If you have strong medications, and you have been warned!.!.!. I would DEFINITELY not want to mix them!.
Pain killers especially should not be mixed!.
While I do not know what medications they are or what they are for I would opt you to call your pharmacist or doctor which prescribed you either 1 or all the medications!.
Even if it isn't lethal or dangerous!.!.!. if you aren't 100% sure, why risk it!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

I've been through this a bit myself!. It's very difficult information to find and if there is more then 2 medications you are taking then it is even harder as two medications together then mixed with something else is different again!. You really should consult your Pharmasist who will tell you if you need to see your Dr!. about this or not!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
