drug interations

does anyone know if its safe to take propanolol when taking tramodol?

If a pharmacist sees a problem with a drug causing an interaction he/she will call your doctor for an alternative.  This is if your pahrmacist is aware of all the meds you are on.

Good point, Alison. Not only is it Sunday, it's Super Bowl Sunday!
I guess I should have written it better, but when I said:

" I often recommend people contact their pharmacists for information, but it's a given I mean when they cannot contact their own doctor."

By that I meant week-ends.

Just said pharmacy since it was a Sunday

Doctors also have the ability to bring up interactions as quickly as pharmacists, but they carry the added authority to change, alter or eliminate any medication you're taking whereas a pharmacist legally cannot. He can only advise you to call your doctor. I often recommend people contact their pharmacists for information, but it's a given I mean when they cannot contact their own doctor.
Checking with your doctor, therefore, is the better answer.

Check with your pharmacist. They usually can bring up any interactions quickly

They should be fine to take together, but you really need to check with your doc first.
