Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

calcium carbonate alendronate

Applies to: Acid Controller Complete Dual Action (calcium carbonate / famotidine / magnesium hydroxide) and Binosto (alendronate)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Products containing aluminum, calcium, magnesium and other polyvalent cations such as antacids or vitamin with mineral supplements are likely to interfere with the gastrointestinal absorption of oral bisphosphonates. For example, the bioavailability of tiludronate has been shown to decrease 80% during simultaneous administration with calcium, and 60% when aluminum- or magnesium-containing antacids were administered one hour before tiludronate.

MANAGEMENT: Antacids or other oral medications containing aluminum, calcium, magnesium and other polyvalent cations should be administered at least 30 minutes after the bisphosphonate dose.

Minor

famotidine calcium carbonate

Applies to: Acid Controller Complete Dual Action (calcium carbonate / famotidine / magnesium hydroxide) and Acid Controller Complete Dual Action (calcium carbonate / famotidine / magnesium hydroxide)

Antacids and some aluminum, calcium, and magnesium salts may decrease the plasma concentrations of H2-receptor antagonists during oral coadministration. The mechanism of interaction is unknown, but may involve reduced oral absorption due to increased gastric pH. Study data vary, with no changes to nearly 60% reductions in systemic exposures (AUCs) reported for cimetidine, famotidine, and ranitidine. The clinical significance has not been established. As a precaution, patients may consider taking H2-receptor antagonists one to two hours before antacids.

famotidine alendronate

Applies to: Acid Controller Complete Dual Action (calcium carbonate / famotidine / magnesium hydroxide) and Binosto (alendronate)

Coadministration of alendronate and intravenous ranitidine has been shown to double the bioavailability of alendronate. The clinical significance of this increased bioavailability is unknown, as are the effects of oral and other intravenous H2-antagonists.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

calcium carbonate food

Applies to: Acid Controller Complete Dual Action (calcium carbonate / famotidine / magnesium hydroxide)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration with food may increase the absorption of calcium. However, foods high in oxalic acid (spinach or rhubarb), or phytic acid (bran and whole grains) may decrease calcium absorption.

MANAGEMENT: Calcium may be administered with food to increase absorption. Consider withholding calcium administration for at least 2 hours before or after consuming foods high in oxalic acid or phytic acid.

Moderate

alendronate food

Applies to: Binosto (alendronate)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food significantly decreases the bioavailability of alendronate, possibly to negligible levels.

MANAGEMENT: Alendronate should be administered with 6 to 8 ounces of plain water, at least 30 minutes before the first food, beverage, or medication of the day. Patients should remain upright for at least 30 minutes following administration of alendronate.

famotidine food

Applies to: Acid Controller Complete Dual Action (calcium carbonate / famotidine / magnesium hydroxide)

H2 antagonists may reduce the clearance of nicotine. Cimetidine, 600 mg given twice a day for two days, reduced clearance of an intravenous nicotine dose by 30%. Ranitidine, 300 mg given twice a day for two days, reduced clearance by 10%. The clinical significance of this interaction is not known. Patients should be monitored for increased nicotine effects when using the patches or gum for smoking cessation and dosage adjustments should be made as appropriate.

Drug Interaction Classification

These classifications are only a guideline. The relevance of a particular drug interaction to a specific individual is difficult to determine. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or stopping any medication.
Major Highly clinically significant. Avoid combinations; the risk of the interaction outweighs the benefit.
Moderate Moderately clinically significant. Usually avoid combinations; use it only under special circumstances.
Minor Minimally clinically significant. Minimize risk; assess risk and consider an alternative drug, take steps to circumvent the interaction risk and/or institute a monitoring plan.
Unknown No interaction information available.
