Norisodrine with Calcium Iodine Disease Interactions

There are 4 disease interactions with Norisodrine with Calcium Iodine (anhydrous calcium iodide / isoproterenol).

Major

Isopreterenol (applies to Norisodrine with Calcium Iodine) tachyarrhythmias

Major Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Angina Pectoris

The use of isoproterenol is contraindicated in patients with tachyarrhythmias; tachycardia or heart block caused by digitalis intoxication; ventricular arrhythmias which require inotropic therapy; and angina pectoris.

Major

Sympathomimetics (applies to Norisodrine with Calcium Iodine) dehydration

Major Potential Hazard, High plausibility.

The use of sympathomimetic amines has been infrequently associated with significant hypotension especially in dehydrated patients secondary to the drug's beta-2 mediated vasodilation. Hypovolemia should be corrected, if possible, before administering sympathomimetic amines. Blood pressure and ECG should be monitored at regular intervals. Monitoring of cardiac output and pulmonary wedge pressure may also be desired.

Moderate

Iodide salts (applies to Norisodrine with Calcium Iodine) hyperthyroidism

Moderate Potential Hazard, Low plausibility.

The use of iodide salts has been associated with the exacerbation or precipitation of hyperthyroidism in patients previously euthyroid. Induction of goiter has been reported in patients with hyperthyroidism. Iodide salts should be administered cautiously in patients with hyperthyroidism.

Moderate

Sympathomimetics (applies to Norisodrine with Calcium Iodine) acidosis

Moderate Potential Hazard, High plausibility.

Acidosis, hypoxia, and hypercapnia may reduce the effectiveness of sympathomimetic amines in raising blood pressure. These conditions should be corrected before initiating therapy with sympathomimetic amines, if possible. Monitoring the patients acid-base balance, carbon dioxide levels, and oxygen saturation is recommended.

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.
