Taking Copinal Suspension with other medicines

Tell your doctor or pharmacist that you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines.

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine.
