Edit list (add/remove drugs)

Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

doxazosin trofinetide

Applies to: Cardura (doxazosin) and trofinetide

MONITOR: Coadministration with trofinetide may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4 via inhibition of the isoenzyme. Based on pharmacokinetic modeling, concomitant use of trofinetide and oral midazolam, a sensitive CYP450 3A4 substrate, is predicted to increase midazolam systemic exposure (AUC) by approximately 1.33-fold. Clinical data are currently lacking.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if trofinetide is coadministered with CYP450 3A4 substrates, particularly sensitive substrates or those with a narrow therapeutic range. If concomitant use is required, clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate whenever trofinetide is added to or withdrawn from therapy. The prescribing information for concomitant medications should be consulted to assess the benefits versus risks of coadministration and for any dosage adjustments that may be required.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

doxazosin food

Applies to: Cardura (doxazosin)

GENERALLY AVOID: The concurrent use of ethanol and alpha-1 adrenergic blockers may cause increased hypotensive effects. Patients with aldehyde dehydrogenase deficiencies (primarily Asians) may be at a higher risk of this interaction. The mechanism has not been determined. Data exist for prazosin and other alpha adrenergic blockers are expected to interact also. In addition, any patients taking alpha adrenergic blockers may experience excessive orthostatic hypotension with ethanol ingestion, due to ethanol's unopposed vasodilatory effects in the presence of alpha adrenergic blockade.

MANAGEMENT: Patients who develop a flushing reaction after ethanol ingestion (indicates a possible aldehyde dehydrogenase deficiency) should be advised to avoid ethanol or limit their intake. All patients should be warned about the possibility of orthostatic hypotension with concurrent ethanol use.

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.
