- Super Strength Sinadrin (acetaminophen/chlorpheniramine/phenylephrine)
Drug interactions
Moderate drug interactions
Moderate:
chlorpheniramine adagrasib
Applies to: Super Strength Sinadrin (acetaminophen / chlorpheniramine / phenylephrine) and adagrasib
Monitor
Coadministration with adagrasib may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are metabolized by the CYP450 3A4, 2D6 or 2C9 enzymatic pathways or are substrates of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux membrane transporter. When adagrasib 400 mg twice daily (two-thirds the approved recommended dosage) was administered with midazolam (a sensitive CYP450 3A4 substrate) and dextromethorphan (a sensitive CYP450 2D6 substrate) in pharmacokinetic studies, midazolam peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 4.8- and 21-fold, respectively, while dextromethorphan Cmax and AUC increased by 1.9- and 1.8-fold, respectively. Adagrasib at the approved recommended dosage of 600 mg twice daily is predicted to increase midazolam Cmax by 3.1-fold and AUC by 31-fold; dextromethorphan Cmax by 1.7-fold and AUC by 2.4-fold; warfarin (a sensitive CYP450 2C9 substrate) Cmax by 1.1-fold and AUC by 2.9-fold; and digoxin (a P-gp substrate) Cmax by 1.9-fold and AUC by 1.5-fold. These results suggest that adagrasib is a potent inhibitor of CYP450 3A4 and may be a moderate inhibitor of CYP450 2D6 and 2C9 at the approved recommended dosage of 600 mg twice daily.
Management
Caution is advised when adagrasib is used concomitantly with drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4, CYP450 2D6, CYP450 2C9 and/or P-gp, particularly sensitive substrates or those with a narrow therapeutic range. Substitution for these medications is recommended when possible, or initiate with lower dosages and monitor patient clinical response/tolerance and titrate accordingly if coadministration is required. The prescribing information for concomitant medications should be consulted to assess the benefits versus risks of coadministration and for any dosage adjustments that may be required.

Food/lifestyle interactions
Major food/lifestyle interactions
Major:
acetaminophen Food/Lifestyle
Applies to: Super Strength Sinadrin (acetaminophen / chlorpheniramine / phenylephrine)
Generally avoid
Chronic, excessive consumption of alcohol may increase the risk of acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity, which has included rare cases of fatal hepatitis and frank hepatic failure requiring liver transplantation. The proposed mechanism is induction of hepatic microsomal enzymes during chronic alcohol use, which may result in accelerated metabolism of acetaminophen and increased production of potentially hepatotoxic metabolites.
Management
In general, chronic alcoholics should avoid regular or excessive use of acetaminophen. Alternative analgesic/antipyretic therapy may be appropriate in patients who consume three or more alcoholic drinks per day.

Major:
adagrasib Food/Lifestyle
Applies to: adagrasib
Adjust dosing interval
Adagrasib can cause concentration-dependent, prolongation of the QT interval. Theoretically, coadministration with grapefruit juice before adagrasib has reached steady-state may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of adagrasib, which is primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Inhibition of hepatic CYP450 3A4 may also contribute. The interaction has not been studied with grapefruit juice but has been reported for the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, itraconazole. In a clinical drug interaction study, adagrasib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) were increased by 2.4-fold and 4-fold, respectively following concomitant use of a single dose of adagrasib (200 mg) with itraconazole. No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of adagrasib at steady state were predicted when used concomitantly with itraconazole. In general, the effect of grapefruit juice is concentration-, dose- and preparation-dependent, and can vary widely among brands. Certain preparations of grapefruit juice (e.g., high dose, double strength) have sometimes demonstrated potent inhibition of CYP450 3A4, while other preparations (e.g., low dose, single strength) have typically demonstrated moderate inhibition. Increased exposure to adagrasib may increase the risk of adverse effects such as QT prolongation, diarrhea, fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, hepatotoxicity, and renal impairment. Adagrasib pharmacokinetics were not significantly affected when administered with a high-fat meal.
Management
Although clinical data are lacking, it may be advisable to avoid the consumption of grapefruit or grapefruit juice until adagrasib concentrations have reached steady state (after approximately 8 days). Patients should be advised to seek prompt medical attention if they experience symptoms that could indicate the occurrence of torsade de pointes such as dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, palpitation, irregular heart rhythm, shortness of breath, or syncope. Adagrasib may be administered with or without food.

Moderate:
phenylephrine Caffeine
Applies to: Super Strength Sinadrin (acetaminophen / chlorpheniramine / phenylephrine)
Monitor
Coadministration of two or more sympathomimetic or noradrenergic agents may increase the risk of nervousness, irritability, tachycardia, and/or increased blood pressure. Central nervous system (CNS) stimulants, particularly amphetamines, can potentiate the adrenergic response to vasopressors and other sympathomimetic and/or noradrenergic agents, including norepinephrine transporter inhibitors. 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 or noradrenergic agents are coadministered. Pulse and blood pressure should be closely monitored. Consultation with individual product labeling, as well as relevant institutional protocols, may be advisable for further guidance.

Alcoholism
Major:
Super Strength Sinadrin
The acetaminophen in Super Strength Sinadrin has a major potential interaction with Alcoholism.
Chronic alcohol abusers may be at increased risk of hepatotoxicity during treatment with acetaminophen (APAP). Severe liver injury, including cases of acute liver failure resulting in liver transplant and death, has been reported in patients using acetaminophen. Therapy with acetaminophen should be administered cautiously, if at all, in patients who consume three or more alcoholic drinks a day. In general, patients should avoid drinking alcohol while taking acetaminophen-containing medications. Patients should be warned not to exceed the maximum recommended total daily dosage of acetaminophen (4 g/day in adults and children 12 years of age or older), and to read all prescription and over-the-counter medication labels to ensure they are not taking multiple acetaminophen-containing products, or check with a healthcare professional if they are unsure. They should also be advised to seek medical attention if they experience signs and symptoms of liver injury such as fever, rash, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, right upper quadrant pain, dark urine, and jaundice.
Asthma
Moderate:
Super Strength Sinadrin
The chlorpheniramine in Super Strength Sinadrin has a moderate potential interaction with Asthma.
It has been suggested that the anticholinergic effect of antihistamines may reduce the volume and cause thickening of bronchial secretions, resulting in obstruction of respiratory tract. Some manufacturers and clinicians recommend that therapy with antihistamines be administered cautiously in patients with asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Moderate:
Super Strength Sinadrin
The phenylephrine in Super Strength Sinadrin has a moderate potential interaction with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.
Sympathomimetic agents may cause or worsen urinary difficulty in patients with prostate enlargement due to smooth muscle contraction in the bladder neck via stimulation of alpha-1 adrenergic receptors. Therapy with sympathomimetic agents should be administered cautiously in patients with hypertrophy or neoplasm of the prostate.
Cardiovascular Conditions and Disorders
Major:
Super Strength Sinadrin
The phenylephrine in Super Strength Sinadrin has a major potential interaction with Cardiovascular Conditions and Disorders.
Sympathomimetic agents may cause adverse cardiovascular effects, particularly when used in high dosages and/or in susceptible patients. In cardiac tissues, these agents may produce positive chronotropic and inotropic effects via stimulation of beta- 1 adrenergic receptors. Cardiac output, oxygen consumption, and the work of the heart may be increased. In the peripheral vasculature, vasoconstriction may occur via stimulation of alpha-1 adrenergic receptors. Palpitations, tachycardia, arrhythmia, hypertension, reflex bradycardia, coronary occlusion, cerebral vasculitis, myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest, and death have been reported. Some of these agents, particularly ephedra alkaloids (ephedrine, ma huang, phenylpropanolamine), may also predispose patients to hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke. Therapy with sympathomimetic agents should generally be avoided or administered cautiously in patients with sensitivity to sympathomimetic amines, hyperthyroidism, or underlying cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disorders. These agents should not be used in patients with severe coronary artery disease or severe/uncontrolled hypertension.
Moderate:
Super Strength Sinadrin
The chlorpheniramine in Super Strength Sinadrin has a moderate potential interaction with Cardiovascular Conditions and Disorders.
Antihistamines may infrequently cause cardiovascular adverse effects related to their anticholinergic and local anesthetic (quinidine-like) activities. Tachycardia, palpitation, ECG changes, arrhythmias, hypotension, and hypertension have been reported. Although these effects are uncommon and usually limited to overdosage situations, the manufacturers and some clinicians recommend that therapy with antihistamines be administered cautiously in patients with cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and/or hyperthyroidism.

Dehydration
Major:
Super Strength Sinadrin
The acetaminophen in Super Strength Sinadrin has a major potential interaction with Dehydration.
Acetaminophen is contraindicated in patients with severe hepatic impairment or severe active liver disease. Patients with hepatic impairment may be at increased risk of toxicity. Severe liver injury, including cases of acute liver failure and death, have been reported in patients using this drug. Clinical monitoring of hepatic function is recommended. Caution is advised if using acetaminophen in patients with chronic malnutrition or severe hypovolemia. Instruct patients to avoid drinking alcohol while taking acetaminophen-containing medications. Patients should be warned not to exceed the maximum recommended total daily dosage of acetaminophen (4 g/day in adults and children 12 years of age or older), and to read all prescription and over-the-counter medication labels to ensure they are not taking multiple acetaminophen-containing products, or check with a healthcare professional if they are unsure.
Diabetes Mellitus
Moderate:
Super Strength Sinadrin
The phenylephrine in Super Strength Sinadrin has a moderate potential interaction with Diabetes Mellitus.
Sympathomimetic agents may cause increases in blood glucose concentrations. These effects are usually transient and slight but may be significant with dosages higher than those normally recommended. Therapy with sympathomimetic agents should be administered cautiously in patients with diabetes mellitus. Closer monitoring of blood glucose concentrations may be appropriate.
Gastrointestinal Obstruction
Moderate:
Super Strength Sinadrin
The chlorpheniramine in Super Strength Sinadrin has a moderate potential interaction with Gastrointestinal Obstruction.
Antihistamines often have anticholinergic activity, to which elderly patients are particularly sensitive. Therapy with antihistamines should be administered cautiously, if at all, in patients with preexisting conditions that are likely to be exacerbated by anticholinergic activity, such as urinary retention or obstruction; angle-closure glaucoma, untreated intraocular hypertension, or uncontrolled primary open-angle glaucoma; and gastrointestinal obstructive disorders. Conventional, first-generation antihistamines such as the ethanolamines (bromodiphenhydramine, carbinoxamine, clemastine, dimenhydrinate, diphenhydramine, doxylamine, phenyltoloxamine) tend to exhibit substantial anticholinergic effects. In contrast, the newer, relatively nonsedating antihistamines (e.g., cetirizine, fexofenadine, loratadine) reportedly have low to minimal anticholinergic activity at normally recommended dosages and may be appropriate alternatives.
