Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

triprolidine chlophedianol

Applies to: Prohist CD (chlophedianol / phenylephrine / triprolidine) and Prohist CD (chlophedianol / phenylephrine / triprolidine)

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.

Moderate

triprolidine ragweed pollen allergen extract

Applies to: Prohist CD (chlophedianol / phenylephrine / triprolidine) and ragweed pollen allergen extract

MONITOR: Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs), catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) inhibitors, thyroid hormone, antihistamines, cardiac glycosides (e.g. digoxin) and diuretics may potentiate the response to epinephrine, including fatal consequences, in the treatment of serious systemic reactions that may occur during immunotherapy with allergenic extracts. Vasoconstricting and hypertensive effects may be potentiated by MAOIs, tricyclic antidepressants, and COMT inhibitors. Arrhythmogenic effects may be potentiated by thyroid hormones, antihistamines, cardiac glycosides and diuretics.

MANAGEMENT: Immunotherapy with allergenic extracts may not be appropriate in patients receiving MAOIs, tricyclic antidepressants, COMT inhibitors, thyroid hormone, antihistamines and cardiac glycosides as these patients may experience an exaggerated response to the usual doses of epinephrine required to reverse a systemic reaction.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

triprolidine food

Applies to: Prohist CD (chlophedianol / phenylephrine / triprolidine)

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.

ragweed pollen allergen extract food

Applies to: ragweed pollen allergen extract

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Since sublingual preparations of allergenic extracts are meant to be absorbed directly from tissues under the tongue into the blood stream, consuming food or beverage during or immediately after administration may reduce the systemic bioavailability of the medication.

MONITOR: Coadministration of allergenic extracts for allergy immunotherapy with alcohol may potentiate the risk of allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis. According to some studies, alcohol is an augmenting factor influencing immunological mechanisms that can induce more severe allergic reactions and is involved in up to 15% of cases of anaphylactic reactions. Proposed mechanisms include an increase in allergen absorption from altered permeability of the intestinal epithelial barrier, enhancing mast cell and basophil activation, and an increase in serum IgE concentrations. A causal relationship with all allergenic extracts has not been established.

MANAGEMENT: Food or beverage should not be taken with, or for at least 5 minutes after, the administration of sublingual allergenic extracts. Patients should also avoid swallowing for about 1 minute following placement of the allergen extract under the tongue. Caution is advised if allergenic extracts for immunotherapy are used concomitantly with alcohol. Some manufacturers of peanut allergen extract recommend alcohol not be consumed for 2 hours before, or 2 hours after taking peanut allergen extract and if alcohol use cannot be avoided, that withholding or decreasing peanut allergen dosage should be considered. Individual prescribing information should be consulted for further guidance and clinical monitoring may be considered.

phenylephrine food

Applies to: Prohist CD (chlophedianol / phenylephrine / triprolidine)

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.

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.
