Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

dimenhyDRINATE aceclidine ophthalmic

Applies to: Dramamine Original Formula (dimenhydrinate) and aceclidine ophthalmic

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR: Theoretically, anticholinergic agents and other agents with significant anticholinergic activity (e.g., antihistamines, antispasmodics, neuroleptics, phenothiazines, skeletal muscle relaxants, tricyclic antidepressants, and class IA antiarrhythmics) may antagonize the effects of ophthalmic cholinergic agents. The proposed mechanism involves opposing pharmacodynamic action on muscarinic receptor sites in ocular tissue. This interaction is sometimes desirable and is the basis for using atropine in the treatment of excessive muscarinic side effects and cholinergic crisis induced by cholinergic overdose.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving long-term therapy with anticholinergic agents or agents with significant anticholinergic activity should be monitored for potentially diminished therapeutic (miotic) response to ophthalmic cholinergic therapy, and dosages adjusted as necessary.

Drug and food/lifestyle interactions

Moderate

dimenhyDRINATE food/lifestyle

Applies to: Dramamine Original Formula (dimenhydrinate)

Ask your doctor before using dimenhyDRINATE together with ethanol (alcohol). Use alcohol cautiously. Alcohol may increase drowsiness and dizziness while you are taking dimenhyDRINATE. You should be warned not to exceed recommended dosages and to avoid activities requiring mental alertness. If your doctor prescribes these medications together, you may need a dose adjustment to safely take this combination. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
