drug interactions from trazodone and clonazepam

	Asked by delaware (Female; 32; USA; migraines; Relevant drugs:see question ) on Tue 16, Sep 2008 11:34pm
	My wife has a migraine and also a sinus infection currently. She took 1 clonazepam (1 Mg) and 2 Trazodone (50 Mg) and began feeling dizzy and experienced some hallucinations. It is the first time she has taken the Trazodone and wanted to make sure there isn't a problem taking both at same time. She is also very worn down and tired which may be reason for hallucintions. She is laying down now but I wanted to check and see if we should seek medical attention for possible drug interactions. Thank you.

	Answer by Dr Bhupinder, MD (doctor) on Sat 27, Sep 2008 09:41am: Hi, clonazepam itself is responsible for dizziness and psychic manifestations and trazodone also causes dizziness and drowsiness, may be it is additive effect or pharmacodynamic interaction.
