Having allergy issues-ok to take meds for that?
Jul 24th, 2008 at 8:29am
 
My husband is having a few sinus allergy problems and I don't know if it is ok to take a decongestant/antihistamine while on the topamax/verap.

This is a question to be directed to his doc or your pharmacist. None of us have the medical skills/authority to give an answer and all it takes is a quick phone call to get an solid information.

Quite apart from the possible interactions with verapamil and the appropriateness of any meds for any particular individual,

I find that antihistamines tend to help me when in cycle, and I suspect that decongestants make things worse.

The outer boundary of what we currently believe is feasible is far short of what we actually must do.
