Meds not to be taken with alcohol

Posted by tensor on December 22, 2006, at 12:19:39

It would be nice if people could list which meds they have had bad experiences mixing them with alcohol. I got really weird experiences with Prozac + alcohol (complete blackouts) and even more weird with Lithium + alcohol (aggressive). I'm not promoting use of alcohol when taking psychotropic meds, but sometimes I just have to drink some wine or cognac. With most meds, for me, it's no problem.

This was sent to me via babble mail from a person who wants to be anonumous
--------------------------------
Luvox and Alcohol = severe diarhhoea

Epilim and Alcohol = agressive and messy, very bad for your liver

Zyprexa and Alcohol = get drunk very quickly, like after 2 drinks, slurred speech, very messy, not a good look at all, blackout big time, etc.....

Valium + Alcohol = is fine for me

Mogadon + Alcohol = blackout

Cipramil (citalopram) + Alcohol = slighty agressive

Effexor + Alcohol was fine for me

Prozac + Alcohol was fine

Paxil + Alcohol = sent me totally psychotic, smashed the kitchen up, worst interaction I have ever had.

Aurorix(RIMA) + Alcohol = was fine

Tofranil + Alcohol = was fine

Anafranil + Alcohol = increased the alcohol effect quite notably

I hear that cymbalta is realy bad to drink with. Not to mention that it can hurt your liver that way. Celexa was not that bad, the only thing it did was make my face red around my eyes. So I take it at night now. I think the side-effects with cymbalta and alcohol were sick feelings in the stomack.
