Consumer:Using apomorphine together with dextromethorphan may increase side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, and difficulty concentrating. You should avoid or limit the use of alcohol while being treated with these medications. Also avoid activities requiring mental alertness such as driving or operating hazardous machinery until you know how the medications affect you. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
Professional:GENERALLY AVOID: Central nervous system (CNS) depressant effects may be additively or synergistically increased in patients using apomorphine in combination with other drugs that can also cause these effects. Apomorphine alone has been frequently associated with somnolence and dizziness. Patients may suddenly fall asleep during activities of daily living.
MANAGEMENT: The use of other sedating drugs should generally be avoided during apomorphine treatment. Patients prescribed these agents concurrently should be monitored for potentially excessive or prolonged CNS depression, especially if they are elderly or debilitated. Ambulatory patients should be made aware of the possibility of additive CNS effects (e.g., drowsiness, dizziness, lightheadedness, confusion) and counseled to avoid activities requiring mental alertness until they know how these agents affect them. If patients experience increased episodes of falling asleep during normal daily activities, they should avoid driving and other potentially hazardous activities until they have contacted their physician.
