Can I take 7.5mg and Morphine together?

Why this happens

Both medicines are 'central nervous system depressants'. This means they both slow down brain activity and the signals that tell your body to breathe. When used together, these effects add up, making the impact much stronger and more dangerous than taking either medicine alone.

You should only take these two medicines together if they have been specifically prescribed by the same doctor who is aware you are taking both. Do not drive or operate machinery while taking this combination. If you or someone taking these medicines develops very slow breathing, extreme sleepiness, or cannot be woken up, seek emergency medical help immediately.
