Hello,
The only drug interactions here are between the scopolamine, ativan and percocet. All three can cause sedation. It does not mean that you can not use any two of them together however, you would need to not drive or operate machinery when doing so and be very cautious not to fall. It would be much better if you did not use all three at the same time. If you could limit it to no more than two of these it would be better. The combination of all three could cause sedation, dizziness, mental slowing and fatigue
