Edit list (add/remove drugs)

Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

haloperidol sirolimus

Applies to: Haldol Decanoate (haloperidol) and sirolimus

MONITOR: Coadministration of sirolimus or tacrolimus with other drugs that are also metabolized by CYP450 3A4 may result in elevated plasma concentrations of the macrolide immunosuppressant and/or the coadministered drug(s). The mechanism is decreased drug clearance due to competitive inhibition of CYP450 3A4 activity. Although clinical data are lacking, the possibility of prolonged and/or increased pharmacologic effects of the drugs should be considered.

MANAGEMENT: Pharmacologic responses and/or plasma drug levels should be monitored more closely whenever a macrolide immunosuppressant or another substrate of CYP450 3A4 is added to or withdrawn from therapy, and the dosage(s) adjusted as necessary.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

haloperidol food

Applies to: Haldol Decanoate (haloperidol)

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.

Switch to consumer interaction data

Moderate

sirolimus food

Applies to: sirolimus

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Consumption of food can decrease the rate and extent of gastrointestinal absorption of sirolimus. Also, the consumption of grapefruit juice may result in increased sirolimus trough concentrations.

MANAGEMENT: Experts recommend that this drug be taken either at least one hour prior to eating or consistently with or without food to avoid variations in sirolimus blood levels. The manufacturer recommends against using grapefruit juice for dilution of sirolimus doses. Patients should be monitored for clinical and laboratory evidence of altered immunosuppressant effects.

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.
