What could cause nighmares?
Patient: I have nightmares since starting Hydroxyurea (Oral) for 4 years.....Doctors don't think its from the drug.  Never had nightmares before.  Could it be a interaction of Acetaminophen or Fiorinal (for headaches).  I have essential thrombocytocsis and taken Hydrox 500, 1000 alternating  each day.....Thank you so much Doctor: Hello,Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.Unlikely for the Hydrox to cause nightmares.
