Zoloft Oral

In Depth

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you also take drugs that cause drowsiness such as: certain antihistamines (e.g., diphenhydramine), anti-seizure drugs (e.g., carbamazepine, phenytoin), medicine for sleep or anxiety (e.g., alprazolam, diazepam, zolpidem), muscle relaxants, narcotic pain relievers (e.g., codeine, meperidine), psychiatric medicines (e.g., chlorpromazine, risperidone, thioridazine).

Check the labels on all your medicines (e.g., cough-and-cold products) because they may contain drowsiness-causing ingredients, pain relievers/fever reducers (NSAIDs such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or naproxen) or the cough suppressant dextromethorphan. Ask your pharmacist about the safe use of those products.

If your doctor has directed you to take low doses of aspirin to prevent heart attack or stroke (usually at dosages of 81-325 milligrams a day), you should continue to take the aspirin. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more details.
