    Hi all,

    drugs.com lists a strong warning about interaction between ondansetron (a popular anti-nausea medication) and dextromethorphan (UK brand name Bisolvin). Dextromethorphan may be prescribed for respiratory problems. When taken together, there is a risk of inducing potentially life-threatening serotonin syndrome.

    NB - also, dextromethorphan may potentiate the effects of buprenorphine.
