This report displays the potential drug interactions for the following 2 drugs:
- Panmist-S (guaifenesin/pseudoephedrine)
- silodosin
Interactions between your drugs
pseudoephedrine silodosin
Applies to: Panmist-S (guaifenesin / pseudoephedrine) and silodosin
MONITOR: Sympathomimetic agents, such as pseudoephedrine, may antagonize the effects of antihypertensives that interfere with sympathetic activity, such as alpha- and beta-adrenergic blocking agents. In contrast, alpha- and beta-blockers may diminish the vasoconstrictive effects of sympathomimetics. The mechanism of this interaction has not been reported, but may involve competitive inhibition at the adrenergic receptor. Severe hypertension may occur in patients receiving beta-blockers.
MANAGEMENT: Caution and close monitoring of blood pressure is recommended if pseudoephedrine is administered with these antihypertensives. Discontinuation of the sympathomimetic may be necessary if hypertension develops.

Drug and food interactions
silodosin food
Applies to: silodosin
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may reduce the oral bioavailability of silodosin. The effect of a moderate-fat, moderate-calorie meal on silodosin pharmacokinetics was variable and decreased silodosin maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) by approximately 18% to 43% and systemic exposure (AUC) by 4% to 49% across three different studies. The maximum effect of food (i.e., coadministration with a high-fat, high-calorie meal) on the pharmacokinetics of silodosin was not evaluated. Safety and efficacy clinical trials for silodosin were always conducted in the presence of food intake.
MANAGEMENT: Patients should be instructed to take silodosin with a meal to reduce the risk of adverse events.

pseudoephedrine food
Applies to: Panmist-S (guaifenesin / 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.
