Why Are Latuda And Nefazodone Prescribed Together?

Hi, I would like to know why a psychiatrist prescribed Latuda with Nefazadone and it almost killed me. Then I was told to not take Flonase nose spray while on Naefazadone. I read some of the interactions and side effects of those taken together. I really do not know why the pharmacy is out to protect me and get me to stop taking them and warning me, yet the DR, had left me on them for months!

Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your question and here is my advice.
These medicines may interact and cause very harmful effects and are usually not taken together
They make you experience fever, stiff muscles, falls, confusion, changes in heart rate/blood pressure, sweating, muscle pain, weakness or tremors, uncontrollable movements of the face/tongue/other body parts, light-headedness or faintness when rising from a sitting position.Your healthcare professionals may already be aware of this interaction and may be monitoring you for it.

Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
