Antihistamines seizures caused

Bupropion should not be administered with sedating antihistamines because of the increased risk of seizures. Bupropion is used for smoking cessation therapy and may cause insomnia as a side-effect. Patients are advised to avoid taking bupropion dose at bedtime. 

A large number of prescription and nonprescription drugs, as well as a variety of plants and mushrooms, can inhibit the effects of acetylcholine at muscarinic receptors. Some drugs used for other purposes (eg, antihistamines) also have anticholinergic effects. Many of them have other potentially toxic actions. For example, antihistamines such as diphenhydramine can cause seizures tricyclic antidepressants, which have anticholinergic, quinidine-like, and a-blocking effects, can cause severe cardiovascular toxicity. 

Because oxycodone may intensify the effects of other drugs that cause drowsiness, it should not be taken with antidepressants, antihistamines, anti-anxiety drugs, seizure medications, sedatives, sleeping pills, or muscle relaxants, except under the supervision of a doctor. Patients who may be prescribed oxycodone should tell their doctor if they are taking any of these medications. 

Antimuscarinic syndromes consist of tachycardia, dilated pupils, dry, flushed skin, urinary retention, decreased bowel sounds, mild elevation of body temperature, confusion, cardiac arrhythmias and seizures. They are commonly caused by antipsych-otics, tricyclic antidepressants, antihistamines, anti-spasmodics and many plants (see p. 160).
