Can I drive while taking Comtan?

Category: Comtan

When using Comtan, people might feel very sleepy or unexpectedly fall asleep while doing their normal daily activities. To stay safe, patients should avoid driving or other tasks that may be potentially dangerous if they fall asleep until they know how the medication affects them. If they experience these side effects, patients should speak with a doctor.
