In reply to Salaven and a tricyclic?, posted by Margit on March 2, 2001, at 22:22:49
I took Salagen when I was on Parnate, and I switched to Urecholine later because I needed more cholinergic effects in order to remedy urinary retention--as well as dry mouth. But Salagen should be safe to take with a tricyclic. If in doubt, check the Drug-Checker on www.drkoop.com
> Is it safe to take Salaven with a tricyclic AD, in my case Nortriptyline? My doc didn't know. I called the manufacturer and they didn't know. Does anybody have any experience with combining these two meds? I have an extremly dry mouth from the AD to the point that I have cracks in my tongue. My doc gave me a brochure on Salaven, a product that produces more saliva. Since he wasn't sure I asked my pdoc, but he didn't know either. I'd appriciate any response.
