Presently I am on venlor xr 150 mg 1-0-0 and fluanxol 0.5 mg 1-0-1 for depression. I need a clarification. Can these two be combined or are they contra-indicated to each other? Please confirm.

We are glad you have a specific question, however it would have been better to get to know about the medication from your prescribing doctor. Assuming that you need a second opinion, I checked with the medicine interaction checker and it seems like there are some moderate drug drug interactions. For those who have these side effects the combination could cause dizziness, drowsiness, difficulty concentrating and sometimes confusion. We welcome any other questions you may have. Look forward to hearing from you. If you need help with booking an appointment online with me on this website either text, an appointment for a confidential and private consultation you may do so by contacting the help desk of Lybrate.
