Generally, "Dailixin" refers to flupentixol and melitracen tablets, which are mainly used to treat mild to moderate depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions. It is acceptable to consume a small amount of ice cream while taking flupentixol and melitracen tablets, as there is no direct adverse interaction that affects the drug's efficacy. However, intake quantity and frequency should be controlled. If severe gastrointestinal discomfort, mood fluctuations, or allergic reactions occur after consumption, medical attention is recommended.
Flupentixol and melitracen tablets are commonly prescribed for mild to moderate depression and anxiety. Some patients may experience gastrointestinal side effects such as dry mouth, constipation, or nausea after taking the medication. Since ice cream is cold in temperature, excessive consumption may irritate the gastrointestinal tract and worsen these symptoms.
Individuals with inherently weak gastrointestinal function or those already experiencing digestive discomfort from the medication should be especially cautious. Overeating ice cream may lead to abdominal pain or diarrhea due to thermal irritation, indirectly affecting overall physical condition and medication compliance.
When consuming ice cream, choose reputable brands, limit portion size to a small serving per time, and avoid eating on an empty stomach. Maintain a 1–2 hour interval between medication intake and ice cream consumption. Overall, maintain a light, warm diet and minimize intake of raw or cold foods to reduce gastrointestinal irritation.
