Contraindicated (13)
- Thioridazine + Abiraterone— CYP2D6 substrate with narrow therapeutic index. Avoid co-administration with abiraterone.
- Thioridazine + Abiraterone Acetate— CYP2D6 substrate with narrow therapeutic index. Avoid co-administration with abiraterone acetate.
- Thioridazine + Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide And Quinidine Sulfate— Do not use with drugs that both prolong QT interval and are metabolized by CYP2D6.
- Thioridazine + Fluoxetine— Do not use fluoxetine with thioridazine due to QT interval prolongation risk.
- Thioridazine + Fluoxetine Hydrochloride— Do not use fluoxetine with thioridazine due to QT prolongation risk.
- Thioridazine + Macimorelin Acetate— Co-administration may lead to torsade de pointes-type ventricular tachycardia due to QT prolongation. Avoid concomitant …
- Thioridazine + Olanzapine And Fuoxetine— Do not use olanzapine and fluoxetine capsules in combination with thioridazine.
- Thioridazine + Paroxetine— Increased plasma concentrations may increase risk of QTc prolongation and ventricular arrhythmias. Paroxetine is contrai…
- Thioridazine + Paroxetine Hydrochloride— Increased plasma concentrations of thioridazine may increase the risk of QTc prolongation and ventricular arrhythmias.
- Thioridazine + Paroxetine Hydrochloride Hemihydrate— Concomitant use is contraindicated; see contraindications and warnings sections.
- Thioridazine + Pimozide— Additive QT interval prolongation effect anticipated, increasing risk of ventricular arrhythmias.
- Thioridazine + Rolapitant— Increased plasma concentrations associated with serious and life-threatening QT prolongation and Torsades de Pointes.
- Thioridazine + Sertraline Hydrochloride— Concomitant use increases risk of serotonin syndrome.
Major (3)
- Thioridazine + Amantadine Hydrochloride— Coadministration of thioridazine has been reported to worsen the tremor in elderly patients with Parkinson's disease.
- Thioridazine + Tetrabenazine— Antipsychotic that prolongs QTc interval and increases risk for Parkinsonism, NMS, and akathisia when used concomitantly…
- Thioridazine + Toremifene Citrate— Antipsychotic that prolongs QT interval; should be avoided with toremifene citrate or requires close monitoring.
Moderate (16)
- Thioridazine + Amantadine— Coadministration has been reported to worsen tremor in elderly patients with Parkinson's disease.

- Thioridazine + Darifenacin— Darifenacin may increase thioridazine exposure as it is metabolized by CYP2D6 with narrow therapeutic window. Caution sh…
- Thioridazine + Darifenacin Hydrobromide— Caution when used concomitantly; darifenacin may increase exposure of thioridazine, a CYP2D6 substrate with narrow thera…
- Thioridazine + Metoprolol— Potent CYP2D6 inhibitor may increase plasma concentration of metoprolol, decreasing cardioselectivity.
- Thioridazine + Metoprolol Tartrate— Potent CYP2D6 inhibitor may increase metoprolol plasma concentration, decreasing cardioselectivity.
- Thioridazine + Metoprolol Tartrate And Hydrochlorothiazide— Potent CYP2D6 inhibitor may increase plasma concentration of metoprolol; caution should be exercised.
