Interactions between your selected drugs

aspirin ↔ exenatide

Applies to:Aspirin Low Strength (aspirin) and Byetta (exenatide)

MONITOR: Drugs that affect renal function and/or hydration status may potentiate the adverse renal effects of exenatide. The mechanism of interaction is unknown. Exenatide has not been found to be directly nephrotoxic in preclinical or clinical studies. However, there have been reports of altered renal function, including increased serum creatinine, renal impairment, worsened chronic renal failure, and acute renal failure during postmarketing use. In some cases, hemodialysis or kidney transplantation was required. Some of these events occurred in patients receiving one or more pharmacologic agents known to affect renal function or hydration status (e.g., ACE inhibitors, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, diuretics), and some occurred in patients who had been experiencing nausea, vomiting or diarrhea, with or without dehydration. Most cases were reversible with supportive treatment and discontinuation of potentially causative agents, including exenatide.

MANAGEMENT: Clinicians should be aware of the potential for increased adverse renal effects of exenatide during coadministration with drugs that are known to affect renal function or hydration status.

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.
