What Can I Take With Methadone & Klonopin

I currently take 71mg of methadone, klonopin 3mg, 100mg of hydroxyzine, and levothyroxine 25mcg everyday. I have cellulitus of my ear and was prescribed keflex 500mg 2xday. Will this antibiotic be safe to take with all the medications i am currently taking??? Please someone help me. Thank you!

@RedGirl,

According to umm.edu's drug interaction checker, the only interaction I found among those that were listed, was between Klonopin (Clonazepam) and Methadone. These precautions go on to note that taking the two together might increase your risk for certain serious side effects, including: lightheadedness, dizziness, an inability to concentrate, fainting spells, confusion, falling, and/or sleepiness. And if any of these should happen (god forbid), umm.edu recommends calling your doctor immediately. I don't know how you'd call your doctor if you've fainted...but I guess whenever you wake up just make it a top priority LOL. I guess in some situations both medications may be medically necessary and you'd have to discuss with your doctor the idea of cutting down dosages and/or frequency of use in order to lessen your risk in the future.... But just to confirm - no interactions were specifically listed between the antibiotic and those other medications.

Hope this helps!
