Cold Medicine & Mirtazapine

[Hereford Al]

Does anyone know if it is OK to take Cold/Flu medicine (like Lemsip) whilst being prescribed Mirtazapine?

I have an absolute stinker of a cold at the moment!

Bit late now as the shops will be shut but you could have asked a pharmacist unless you have a superstore near you with a chemist in you could ring them or NHS Direct

I've had that mixture. If you have a stinker, take the night nurse. It does add to the sleepiness of mirtazapine but if you're bunged up it would help.
