Acarbose has a moderate potential interaction with Liver Disease.

The use of acarbose has been associated with dose-related elevations in serum transaminase levels and, rarely, hyperbilirubinemia and jaundice. Hepatic adverse effects may be more likely to occur at dosages exceeding 50 mg three times a day. Therapy with acarbose should be administered cautiously in patients with liver disease. Monitoring of serum transaminases is recommended every 3 months during the first year of treatment and periodically thereafter. If hepatotoxicity is suspected at any time, a dosage reduction or withdrawal of therapy may be indicated.

Somatropin has a major potential interaction with Lung Cancer.

Somatropin and somatrogon are contraindicated in the presence of any active malignancy. Any preexistent malignancy should be inactive and its treatment should be completed prior to somatropin therapy. This includes the presence of any intracranial tumor. Somatropin and somatrogon should be discontinued if there is any evidence of recurrence.

Acarbose has a major potential interaction with Malabsorption Syndrome.

The use of alpha-glucosidase inhibitors is contraindicated in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, colonic ulceration, partial intestinal obstruction, or any chronic intestinal disease associated with marked disorders of digestion or absorption. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors competitively inhibit enzymes involved in the digestion of carbohydrates. Increased gas formation in the intestines due to fermentation of the undigested carbohydrates can worsen or aggravate intestinal problems.

Acarbose has a major potential interaction with Noninfectious Colitis.

The use of alpha-glucosidase inhibitors is contraindicated in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, colonic ulceration, partial intestinal obstruction, or any chronic intestinal disease associated with marked disorders of digestion or absorption. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors competitively inhibit enzymes involved in the digestion of carbohydrates. Increased gas formation in the intestines due to fermentation of the undigested carbohydrates can worsen or aggravate intestinal problems.

Somatropin has a moderate potential interaction with Papilledema Associated with Increased Intracranial Pressure.

Intracranial hypertension with papilledema, visual changes, nausea and/or vomiting has been reported in a small number of patients treated with somatropin, somatrogon , and lonapegsomatropin . Fundoscopic examination should be performed before treatment initiation to exclude preexisting papilledema, and should be continued periodically during treatment. If papilledema is observed during treatment, therapy should be stopped. Treatment could be restarted at a lower dose once intracranial hypertension has been resolved. Patients with Turner Syndrome might be at increased risk of developing intracranial hypertension.

Somatropin has a major potential interaction with Prostate Cancer.

Somatropin and somatrogon are contraindicated in the presence of any active malignancy. Any preexistent malignancy should be inactive and its treatment should be completed prior to somatropin therapy. This includes the presence of any intracranial tumor. Somatropin and somatrogon should be discontinued if there is any evidence of recurrence.

Somatropin has a major potential interaction with Pulmonary Impairment.

Somatropin and somatrogon is contraindicated in patients with Prader-Willi Syndrome who are severely obese, have a history of upper airway obstruction or sleep apnea, or have severe respiratory impairment. There have been reports of sudden death when somatropin was used in such patients.

Somatropin has a major potential interaction with Pulmonary Impairment.

Treatment with somatropin and somatrogon is contraindicated in patients with acute critical illness due to any complications following open heart surgery, abdominal surgery, multiple trauma, or acute respiratory failure. Patients with these conditions have an increased risk of mortality.

Acarbose has a major potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Acarbose may accumulate in patients with renal impairment. Following oral administration, 35% of a dose is recovered in the urine as either the parent drug or metabolites. However, long-term clinical trials in diabetic patients with significant renal dysfunction (serum creatinine > 2.0 mg/dL) have not been conducted. Therapy with acarbose should be administered cautiously in patients with renal dysfunction. The manufacturer does not recommend its use in patients with significantly impaired renal function.

Somatropin has a moderate potential interaction with Scoliosis.

Progression of scoliosis can occur in patients who experience rapid growth. Since somatropin and somatrogon increase growth rate, children with a history of scoliosis should be monitored for progression of this condition. Physicians should be alert for this skeletal abnormality which can be commonly seen in patients with Turner and Prader-Willi syndromes, and can manifest during somatropin and somatrogon treatment.

Somatropin has a major potential interaction with Sepsis.

Treatment with somatropin and somatrogon is contraindicated in patients with acute critical illness due to any complications following open heart surgery, abdominal surgery, multiple trauma, or acute respiratory failure. Patients with these conditions have an increased risk of mortality.
