It depens which Robitussin... Venlafaxine shouldn't be taken with DM (dextrometorphan) found in many Robitussin syrups.
The Robitussin containing only "guafenisin" (expectorant) is safe with Effexor (venlafaxine). Make sure it doesn't contain DM.

∙ 14y agoI took the two together not realizing they interacted. When I did the research, I found that it is NOT good idea, if so, use with caution ( if the benefit out weigh the risk). It can cause Serotonin syndrome ( some refer to it as a form of poisoning) which is potentially life-threatening. According to research, normally this symptoms occur within minutes. Severe symptoms include severe increases in heart rate and blood pressure that may lead to shock. Although, I do not have the signs of serotonin syndrome, I certainly wish I would have done the research before taking them together. I got lucky and didn't have that reaction...maybe someone else may not be so lucky!

∙ 15y agoNo, you should avoid syrup that contains DM (dextrometorphan), there is an important interaction with fluoxetine and DM. Otherwise, you can use cough syrup that doesn't contain DM (e.g. codeine syrup, Ulone, guafeinisine syrup, etc..)

Can you drink alcohol with Robitussin?
Drinking alcohol when taking Robitussin or any drug containing dextromethorphan or guaifenisen is likely to increase the likelihood of unpleasant side effects which include nervousness, dizziness, anxiety and restlessness. There are not the reasons people usually take drugs. Note: I could not find any confirmation on any other website that alocohol affects anything while taking Robitussin. Just as long as you aren't drinking in excess, it should be absolutely fine.

Can you take robitussin while taking Ritalin?
Why yes! Robitussin's active ingredient, dextromethorphan, is a cough suppresant and expectorant. (It also has mild hallucinogenic qualities when taken in high doses.) Ritalin is a stimulant designed to curb the affects of ADD or ADHD. You can certainly take both at the same time. But, you might trip balls if you take too much.

Can you mix Robitussin and Zyrtec D?
I'm afraid that, even though it's unlikely it would be serious, the pseudoephedrine in the Zyrtec D and the dextromethorphan in the Mucinex could interact with each other. However normal Zyrtec with just cetirizine would be perfectly safe.
