BD PosiFlush SF with BPC Disease Interactions

There are 2 disease interactions with BD PosiFlush SF with BPC (sodium chloride).

Major

Sodium salts (applies to BD PosiFlush SF with BPC) sodium/water imbalance

Major Potential Hazard, High plausibility. Applicable conditions: Fluid Retention, Congestive Heart Failure, Hypokalemia

Sodium chloride can induce sodium and water retention and result in hypernatremia, hypokalemia, edema and aggravation of congestive heart failure. Therapy with sodium- containing agents should be administered with extreme caution, if at all, in patients with congestive heart failure, severe renal insufficiency, and in clinical states where there is edema with sodium retention. Clinical monitoring of acid/base balance and electrolytes prior to, during, a following completion of therapy with sodium- containing agents is recommended.

Moderate

Sodium chloride (applies to BD PosiFlush SF with BPC) acidosis

Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility.

Administration of excessive amounts of sodium chloride can increase chloride concentrations and cause a loss of bicarbonate that results in metabolic acidosis. Clinical monitoring of acid/base balance and electrolyte concentrations is recommended.

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.
