Pharmacological research till now demonstrated that drugs with anticholinergic effects such as- sedating antihistamines, antispasmodics, neuroleptics, phenothiazines, skeletal muscle relaxants, tricyclic antidepressants, disopyramide- may have additive effects when used in combination.
Medical Conditions Due to Excessive Parasympathetic Effects
Excessive parasympathetic effects result in following medical conditions:
- Paralytic ileus (temporary paralysis of a portion of the intestines)
- Hyperthermia
- Heat stroke
- Anticholinergic intoxication syndrome
Associated Symptoms of Intoxication
The associated symptoms of intoxication commonly include the following:
- Mydriasis
- Blurring of the vision
- Puffy face
- Fever
- Dry skin and mucous membranes
- Tachycardia
- Urinary retention
- Constipation
What are the Core Symptoms of Belladona Tincture and Benedryl Allergy Interactions ?
Central symptoms include the following:
- Loss memory
- Dementia
- Loss of Cognition
- Disorientation in gait
- Incoherence of speech
- Hallucinations
- Psychosis
- Delirium
- Hyperactivity
- Ballistic movements (Jerks and twitches)
- Stereotype behaviour
- Seizures
The elderly people and the patients suffering with organic brain disease are more vulnerable for depressant effects involving the central nervous system. This increases surgically when these drugs are given in combination. Using two neuroleptics at the same time or a neuroleptic along with an anticholinergic drug may increase the risk of tardive dyskinesia.
How are the Effects caused by Central Symptoms of Belladona Tincture and Benedryl Allergy Interactions Managed ?
Often the toxicity symptoms that occur in elderly people and other vulnerable groups are overlooked.
Patients also on their part should let their doctor know well in advance in case they experience following usual symptoms that result due to anticholinergic intoxication. They include:
- Stomach ache
- Consistent fever
- Heat intolerance
- Blurred vision
- Confusion
- Hallucinations
Ambulatory patients should be counselled to avoid focussed and stressful activities as a precautionary measure.
In case of persisting adverse effects anticholinergic medication must be given.
