Hi,
Promethazine with codeine does not interact with the medications you are taking except for Mucinex DM. Mucinex DM contains Dextromethorphan which when taken with promethazine and codeine can increase drowsiness, sleepiness, and tiredness. Please avoid drinking and activities that require attention like driving, handling machinery etc while on this combination.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
