Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing back with an update.
It is important to know that taking OxyContin together with Sertraline Sandoz can increase the risk of a rare but serious condition called the serotonin syndrome.
Medical literature says that this condition can cause symptoms such as confusion, hallucination, seizure, extreme changes in blood pressure, increased heart rate, fever, excessive sweating, shivering or shaking, blurred vision, muscle spasm or stiffness, tremor, incoordination, stomach cramp, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Severe cases may result in coma and even death.
Using Sertraline Sandoz together with marijuana can increase side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and difficulty concentrating.
Taking Rivaroxaban and smoking marijuana can increase bleeding tendencies.
From the above, taking OxyContin and Sertraline Sandoz can be harmful.
Smoking marijuana and taking Sertraline and Sandoz is also dangerous.
