Nuedexta is a prescription drug used to treat Pseudobulbar Affect (PBA), a condition involving involuntary, sudden outbursts of laughter or crying. It is often associated with neurological diseases like multiple sclerosis or ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis). Before starting Nuedexta, inform your doctor of all your medical conditions and all medications you take, including over-the-counter drugs, vitamins, and supplements. A critical safety rule is to avoid taking Nuedexta if you are currently taking, or have recently taken, a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) or quinidine; a 14-day washout period is required before switching between these medications. Do not use Nuedexta if you are allergic to any of its ingredients or have a family history of certain heart rhythm disorders. Always take it exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
What are some potential side effects of Nuedexta?
Common side effects of Nuedexta include diarrhea, dizziness, vomiting, cough, and swelling in the feet or ankles. Contact your doctor if these effects persist or worsen. Seek immediate medical attention for signs of a serious allergic reaction (lightheadedness, fever, nausea with vomiting) or for symptoms that could indicate serotonin syndrome, such as muscle twitching, confusion, high blood pressure, and fever. This list is not exhaustive, and other side effects may occur. You can report adverse reactions to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
