> This was probably the same "major pharmacy chain" that I went to. After reviewing the meds that I had outstanding prescriptions on, the pharmacy manager raised a big stink about my dentist presribing codeine because his computer told him that there was an interaction between Parnate and codeine which is not true. His brilliant computer also did not warn him about my more recent prescription of Prozac nor of the interaction between an SSRI and a MAOI which did not dawn upon him because the computer did not warn him. Whats the first thing they tell you about SSRI's and MOAI's? The reason I was to reluctant to start a MOAI was that the first thing it says on those all those sheets that the pharmacies hand out in capital letters is "DO NOT USE CONCURRENTLY WITH AN SSRI", which gave me the impression that they were really dangerous, as well as articles written by so called "professonals" that they were the med of last resort. Maybe it was just the other meds that were dangerous.
I 100% agree with you. My Pharmicist told me I could not take antihistamines w/Parnate, she also said no Caffiene at all..LOL. I just wanted to say "SHUT UP"! I do what my doctor says to do! Some Pharmacists can be very annoying. Oh, by the way I didn't tell her to shut up...I just smiled and ignored he. :)
