isoniazid dextromethorphan

Applies to: isoniazid and Decahist-DM (carbinoxamine / dextromethorphan / pseudoephedrine)

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration of isoniazid (INH), with drugs that possess serotonergic activity (e.g., serotonin reuptake inhibitors, 5-HT1 receptor agonists, ergot alkaloids, etc.) may increase the risk of serotonin syndrome, a rare but serious and potentially fatal condition. The proposed mechanism is an increase in serotonin resulting from INH's weak inhibition of monoamine oxidase (the enzyme primarily responsible for breaking down norepinephrine, serotonin, and dopamine) combined with the increase in serotonin from the serotonergic drug(s). In one case report, a patient taking mirtazapine (15 mg nightly) for depression was started on INH (300 mg daily) and pyridoxine (25 mg daily) for tuberculosis prophylaxis following a liver transplant from a donor with latent tuberculosis. Six days following the initiation of INH, the patient developed symptoms consistent with serotonin syndrome (e.g., diarrhea, nausea, tremors, hypertension, and altered mental status) which resolved upon the cessation of INH and mirtazapine. However, consensus on the safety of concomitant use of isoniazid with drugs possessing serotonergic activity is lacking and most of the existing data are limited to case reports.

MANAGEMENT: Until more information is available, coadministration of isoniazid with drugs that possess serotonergic activity (e.g., serotonin reuptake inhibitors, 5-HT1 receptor agonists, ergot alkaloids, etc.) should generally be avoided. If coadministration with a serotonergic drug is required, patients should be advised to promptly seek medical attention if they experience signs and symptoms of serotonin syndrome (including but not limited to confusion, hallucinations, tachycardia, hyperthermia, diaphoresis, shivering, blood pressure lability, neuromuscular abnormalities and/or unexplained gastrointestinal symptoms).

isoniazid carbinoxamine

Applies to: isoniazid and Decahist-DM (carbinoxamine / dextromethorphan / pseudoephedrine)

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration of monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) and antihistamines may result in additive central nervous system depressant effects. In addition, limited data suggest that MAOIs may potentiate and prolong the anticholinergic effects of antihistamines due to inhibition of catecholamine degradation, which may lead to overstimulation of the sympathetic nervous system. In one published report, a woman who had been on phenelzine 30 mg/day for six months developed irritability and visual hallucinations two months following the addition of cyproheptadine 2 mg at bedtime to treat phenelzine-induced anorgasmia. The hallucinations cleared over 48 hours following the discontinuation of her medications. In another published report, a patient developed delirium with symptoms of aggression, paranoia, and vivid auditory as well as visual hallucinations after two days of receiving diphenhydramine 300 mg/day and linezolid 600 mg every 12 hours. The patient also had tachycardia, very warm skin, and possibly blurred vision (as evidenced by constant squinting). Central anticholinergic intoxication and dopaminergic hyperactivity were suspected. Symptoms subsided over four days following the discontinuation of diphenhydramine, while linezolid was continued with no subsequent sequelae. In a third report, a patient developed visual hallucinations associated with confusion and disorientation after nine days of linezolid and antihistamine therapy, including dexchlorpheniramine and cetirizine for the first four days and hydroxyzine for the next five. Physical examination did not reveal any focal neurological signs, myoclonus or ataxia, and cerebral CT scan and EEG were within normal limits. Symptoms resolved two days after linezolid was discontinued.

MANAGEMENT: Prescribing antihistamines in combination with MAOIs or other agents that possess MAOI activity (e.g., furazolidone, linezolid, procarbazine) should generally be avoided. If concomitant treatment is unavoidable, patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how these agents affect them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities. It may be appropriate to monitor some patients for increased anticholinergic effects (e.g., constipation, urinary retention, fever, heat intolerance, blurred vision, confusion, hallucinations, dizziness, palpitations, arrhythmias, syncope), since certain populations such as the elderly and those with underlying organic brain disease tend to be more sensitive to these effects and may be susceptible to anticholinergic intoxication. It should be noted that the manufacturers of many of the sedating antihistamines (e.g., chlorpheniramine, dexchlorpheniramine, diphenhydramine, pheniramine, promethazine) consider their use within 14 days of MAOIs to be contraindicated.

Moderate

dextromethorphan carbinoxamine

Applies to: Decahist-DM (carbinoxamine / dextromethorphan / pseudoephedrine) and Decahist-DM (carbinoxamine / dextromethorphan / pseudoephedrine)

MONITOR: Central nervous system- and/or respiratory-depressant effects may be additively or synergistically increased in patients taking multiple drugs that cause these effects, especially in elderly or debilitated patients. Sedation and impairment of attention, judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills may increase.

MANAGEMENT: During concomitant use of these drugs, patients should be monitored for potentially excessive or prolonged CNS and respiratory depression. Cautious dosage titration may be required, particularly at treatment initiation. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how these agents affect them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

isoniazid food

Applies to: isoniazid

GENERALLY AVOID: Concurrent use of isoniazid (INH) in patients who ingest alcohol daily may result in an increased incidence of both hepatotoxicity and peripheral neuropathy. The increase in hepatotoxicity may be due to an additive risk as both alcohol and INH are individually associated with this adverse reaction. INH-associated hepatotoxicity is believed to be due to an accumulation of toxic metabolites and may also be partly immune mediated, though the exact mechanisms are not universally agreed upon. INH is metabolized by N-acetyltransferase and CYP450 2E1. The rate of acetylation is genetically determined and generally classified as slow or rapid. Slow acetylators have been identified by some studies as having a higher risk of hepatotoxicity; therefore, this interaction may be more significant for patients who fall into this category. Other studies have postulated that alcohol-mediated CYP450 2E1 induction may play a role, as this isoenzyme is involved in INH metabolism and may be responsible for producing hepatotoxic metabolites. However, available literature is conflicting. The labeling for some INH products lists daily alcohol use or chronic alcoholism as a risk factor for hepatitis, but not all studies have found a significant association between alcohol use and INH-induced hepatotoxicity. Additionally, INH and alcohol are both associated with pyridoxine (B6) deficiency, which may increase the risk of peripheral neuropathy.

GENERALLY AVOID: Concomitant administration of isoniazid (INH) with foods containing tyramine and/or histamine may increase the risk of symptoms relating to tyramine- and/or histamine toxicity (e.g., headache, diaphoresis, flushing, palpitations, and hypotension). The proposed mechanism is INH-mediated inhibition of monoamine oxidase (MAO) and diamine oxidase (DAO), enzymes responsible for the metabolism of tyramine and histamine, respectively. Some authors have suggested that the reactions observed are mainly due to INH's effects on DAO instead of MAO or the amounts of histamine instead of tyramine present in the food. A Japanese case report recorded an example in 8 out of 25 patients on the tuberculosis ward who developed an accidental histamine poisoning after ingesting a fish paste (saury). Patients developed allergy-like symptoms, which started between 20 minutes and 2 hours after ingesting the food. A high-level of histamine (32 mg/100 g of fish) was confirmed in the saury paste and all 8 patients were both on INH and had reduced MAO concentrations. The 17 remaining patients were not on INH (n=5) or reported not eating the saury paste (n=12).

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration with food significantly reduces oral isoniazid (INH) absorption, increasing the risk of therapeutic failure or resistance. The mechanism is unknown. Pharmacokinetic studies completed in both healthy volunteers (n=14) and tuberculosis patients (n=20 treatment-naive patients during days 1 to 3 of treatment) have resulted in almost doubling the time to reach INH's maximum concentration (tmax) and a reduction in isoniazid's maximum concentration (Cmax) of 42%-51% in patients who consumed high-fat or high-carbohydrate meals prior to INH treatment.

MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer of oral forms of isoniazid (INH) recommends administration on an empty stomach (i.e., 30 minutes before or 2 hours after meals). Patients should be encouraged to avoid alcohol or strictly limit their intake. Patients who use alcohol and INH concurrently or have a history of alcohol use disorder may require additional monitoring of their liver function during treatment with INH. Concomitant pyridoxine (B6) administration is also recommended to reduce the risk of peripheral neuropathy, with some authorities suggesting a dose of at least 10 mg/day. Patients should be advised to avoid foods containing tyramine (e.g., aged cheese, cured meats such as sausages and salami, fava beans, sauerkraut, soy sauce, beer, or red wine) or histamine (e.g., skipjack, tuna, mackerel, salmon) during treatment with isoniazid. Consultation of product labeling for combination products containing isoniazid and/or relevant guidelines may be helpful for more specific recommendations.

dextromethorphan food

Applies to: Decahist-DM (carbinoxamine / dextromethorphan / pseudoephedrine)

GENERALLY AVOID: Alcohol may potentiate some of the pharmacologic effects of CNS-active agents. Use in combination may result in additive central nervous system depression and/or impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving CNS-active agents should be warned of this interaction and advised to avoid or limit consumption of alcohol. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring complete mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how these agents affect them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities.

pseudoephedrine food

Applies to: Decahist-DM (carbinoxamine / dextromethorphan / pseudoephedrine)

MONITOR: Coadministration of two or more sympathomimetic agents may increase the risk of adverse effects such as nervousness, irritability, and increased heart rate. Central nervous system (CNS) stimulants, particularly amphetamines, can potentiate the adrenergic response to vasopressors and other sympathomimetic agents. Additive increases in blood pressure and heart rate may occur due to enhanced peripheral sympathetic activity.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if two or more sympathomimetic agents are coadministered. Pulse and blood pressure should be closely monitored.
