Mixing medicines
Hi there,
I’m currently taking 80mg of Propranalol and 90mg of Nortriptyline. I have a really bad blocked nose. I bought the decongest Sudafed (contains phenyleohrine was hydrochloride). Upon reading the leaflet it said to consult a doctor or pharmacist if taking beta blockers and tricyclic antidepressants. Is this okay to take? If not could you recommend a different decongestant?
Many thanks.
