colofac tablets

REPORT

Hi
last weekend I had one cocktail, then had my two colofac tablets with water.10 minutes later my head was spinning, my arms started to get pins and needles so bad that i couldn't control my arm muscles and my hands were cold as ice-blocks. I COULDN'T USE MY HANDS. I was so worried and thought to rush to hospital, but waited and about 2 hours it was starting to go back to normal. This was so scary!!

I have IBS

Miriam, I am very glad that your reaction was so short in duration and did not cause you any severe, long-term problems.

Using any amount of alcohol in combination with drugs of any type, be they over the counter, illegal, or prescription can be very dangerous.

You should always check out the information on it, before imbibing, just to be on the safe side.

I take Morphine for a condition that causes me chronic pain. I knew the warnings about alcohol, but I didn't think that just a little would really do anything or cause a problem. So one day when I was visiting my dad, he gave me a can of beer and I was just sitting there chatting and sipping a little.

Well, I learned very fast that it was something I would never do again. I didn't even finish half of the can and I was getting the shakes, nausea, and a severe pounding headache. This last time when I visited, I bought my dad a beer and I had diet coke!

So please, in the future be very careful and think twice before sipping anything alcoholic in combination with prescription drugs.

You and I were both lucky in that the reactions were not serious, but there are some medications that do not mix wil alcohol at all and can cause severe reactions, and can possibly be life threatening.
