May reduce antihypertensive action of guanethidine. May increase risk of arrhythmia when used with drugs that prolong QT interval or diuretics that can cause electrolyte imbalance. May increase plasma levels of haloperidol when used with clozapine or chlorpromazine.
Potentially Fatal: Increases lithium blood levels and may predispose to neuroleptic malignant syndrome.
