Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

posaconazole vilanterol

Applies to: posaconazole and Anoro Ellipta (umeclidinium / vilanterol)

Posaconazole may increase the absorption of vilanterol from the lungs into the blood stream. You may be more likely to experience cardiovascular side effects such as palpitation, chest pain, irregular heart beat, increased heart and pulse rates, and blood pressure elevations. Talk to your doctor before using these medications if you have a history of heart disease or high blood pressure, or if you have other questions or concerns. The risk of side effects also increases with overuse of vilanterol. Therefore, you should not exceed the dose or frequency of use prescribed by your doctor. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

posaconazole food

Applies to: posaconazole

Food significantly increases the absorption of posaconazole from the tablet or suspension formulations. The manufacturer recommends that you take the tablet with food and the oral suspension during or immediately (within 20 minutes) after a full meal. If you cannot eat a full meal, you should take the oral suspension with a liquid nutritional supplement like Ensure or an acidic carbonated beverage like ginger ale. Do not take these medications on an empty stomach, as it may lead to inadequate blood levels and reduced effectiveness. Ask your doctor before using alcohol together with posaconazole from delayed release suspension formulations as this may cause an increase in side effects. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions on how to use the medication properly.
