Can NyQuil Be Taken For Cold, Sore Throat And Pain Relief?
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic There are is one known possible interaction between nyquil and alprazolam. Nyquil contains dextromethorphan, acetaminophen and doxylamine. Alprazolam can possible interact with the doxylamine (an antihistamine) to cause increased drowsiness and dizziness. This effect may or may not occur. I hope this helps
