I have been on Avanza for a long time, and it has been very helpful with my
depression and it helps me get a good nights sleep. I have been very mindful
of not mixing avanza with other medications in the past. I have checked the list
of other medications to avoid. I had a problem with constipation so i bought
a over the counter laxative called PRUNELAX, and thinking it was safe to take
alongside avanza, I took a couple. After a couple of hours I started feeling sick.
I got up and felt dizzy,and past out, injuring myself when I hit the floor. This has
never happened before just being on avanza alone. I put it down to the Prunelax
reacting with the avanza. I would like to put out a warning for those who are on
avanza or other antidepressants about this product or maybe other similar products
that could cause a similar reaction. I have learnt my lesson and will check with my GP
before taking anything else in the future whether I think it might be harmless or not.
So be vigilant people out there who are on antidepressants.
Cheers
