Taking omeprazole and venlafaxine together may increase the amount of venlafaxine in your bloodstream. This could potentially increase the risk of side effects such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, or feeling jittery. In rare cases, it might increase the risk of a serious but rare condition called serotonin syndrome.

Why this happens
Omeprazole can slow down the liver enzymes (specifically CYP2C19) that are responsible for breaking down venlafaxine. Because the body processes the venlafaxine more slowly, the drug can build up to higher levels than intended.
What you should do
You can usually take these medicines together, but you should be aware of any new or worsening side effects. If you feel unusually agitated, confused, or experience a very fast heartbeat, contact your doctor. Your doctor may choose to adjust your dose of venlafaxine if you need to take omeprazole long-term.

Patient picks for Drug interactions
Behandlung und Medikamente
Can I take Citalopram and Co codamol together?
Taking these two medicines together can increase the risk of a rare but serious condition called serotonin syndrome. It can also make you feel more drowsy or dizzy than usual. Additionally, citalopram may slightly reduce how well the codeine part of the co-codamol works to relieve your pain.
Behandlung und Medikamente
Can I take Esomeprazole and Trazodone together?
Esomeprazole may reduce the amount of trazodone that your body absorbs. This could potentially make trazodone less effective at treating your symptoms (such as depression or sleep issues). Additionally, both medications can rarely affect the electrical activity of your heart, though this risk is generally low.
