Does Nyquil Interact With Prozac, Wellbutrin, Lisinopril, Metformin And Ativan?
Question: Hi, quick question. Can I safely take nyquil severe with my medication? I take prozac and wellbutrin for depression, lisinopril, metformin and occasionally low dosage ativan though I haven't taken any in weeks. I am a type 2 diabetic and it said to check before taking. Thank you

Detailed Answer:
Hello, and thanks for your question.
It is safe to take Nyquil as long as you do not take Ativan within 24 hours of the Nyquil. The remaining medications do not interact significant with Nyquil. I would not take Nyquil for more than a few days in a row to avoid developing a dependence on it. Otherwise you are safe and good to go!
