Primozyn

Most antipsychotics cause weight gain and Primozyn is also one of the drugs that cause the same. Primozyn induces sleep and causes lethargy in patients due to which the physical activity gets reduced, leading to weight gain. Since weight loss is difficult for most people, emphasis should be paid on preventing weight gain using lifestyle modifications comprising a change of diet and the addition of physical activity in routine. 

Citalopram is an antidepressant which interacts with Primozyn causing increased serotonin levels in the blood. This can cause adverse cardiac effects like high blood pressure, an increase in the heart rate and this might lead to shock. 

Primozyn works by arresting the free histamines. Free histamines are found in the bloodstream due to allergic reactions, and hence this drug helps in relieving allergic symptoms such as coughing and sneezing. Additionally, it also eases the body and helps in inducing sleep by relaxing the brain. This helps the person to take complete rest and recover faster.

Yes, Primozyn can be used safely for the treatment of nausea, cold, allergy, etc., for as long as it is prescribed by your doctor. However, in some people, it may cause some side effects like drowsiness, dry mouth, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, etc. In the event of a side effect, one must speak to a doctor immediately. 

No, it is recommended that you do not take Primozyn with amitriptyline which is an antidepressant with anticholinergic effects. Since Primozyn also has anticholinergic effects, both the drugs produce additive effects such as dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, etc.
