A specific medicine contains specific compounds designed for a specific medical condition. When consumed with other medicine or health-related products, the compounds found in each one may interact. This can result in a side effect that can manifest as a symptom, or the medication’s effectiveness is affected.
Drug-drug interactions can happen with two or more medications involved. For example, if you are taking medication such as a sedative to improve your sleep while also taking an antihistamine for your allergies, the combination can slow down your reactions. This makes it difficult and unsafe to drive a car or operate heavy machinery. As such, it is best to stay at home or limit any major activities until the effect has worn off.
These interactions may not always be apparent – especially since it takes an expert to fully understand the contents of a medication. However, reading labels and instruction notes remain an important practice to equip the general public. Whenever you have concerns like this, you can always talk with your doctor or consult with a pharmacist.
