Taking prochlorperazine with other medicines and herbal supplements

Some medicines and prochlorperazine do not work well together. This can increase the chance of having side effects.

Tell your pharmacist or doctor if you're taking any medicine that:

• makes you sleepy or drowsy
• gives you a dry mouth
• can affect your heart

Taking prochlorperazine might make these side effects worse.

It's usually best to only take 1 type of medicine for feeling or being sick.

If prochlorperazine does not work for you, speak to your doctor and they may suggest a different medicine.

Some herbal remedies can make your side effects worse.

There's not enough information to say that complementary medicines, herbal remedies and supplements are safe to take with prochlorperazine. They're not tested in the same way as pharmacy and prescription medicines. They're generally not tested for the effect they have on other medicines.

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you're taking any other medicines, including herbal remedies, vitamins or supplements.
