Strange Combination - Should I go to the ER

[glas123]

blueligth,

I may have done something extremely stupid.

I have mix my regular doses of Cymbalta (Duloxetine) and Zyprexa (Olanzapine) with 40 mg OxyContin.

Some people said it wasn't dangerous at all, but I'm not so sure I can trust them.

So Bluelight-experts, please enlighten me. Are my friends right (I really hope so.) or do I need to seek medical attention?

Very fast answers is appreciated.

Kind regards

how many mg of the cymbalta and zyprexa?

obviously all are CNS depressants, however considering the 40mg oxycontin extended release profile, and if you take the two aforementioned meds already, I doubt you worry about that. just dont add anymore depressants. particularly, no alcohol.

only other thing would be tardive dyskinesia. not a medical emergency by any means necessarily... but would manifest as jaw muscle spasms/tetanus.

Thank you so much for the quick answer.

I took my regular does of 90mg Cymbalta this morning and 15mg Zyprexa the night before. I don't believe that they are excessive doses. But I would rather be safe then sorry when it comes to these things.

Any input is greatly appreciated.

Regards

Drugs.com suggested there might be serotonin syndrome as a possible cause of the combination of cymbalta and oxycodone, which I find strange... can this be true? http://www.drugs.com/interactions-check.php?drug_list=949-2273,1770-2012,1744-1113
