Can you take Ado-trastuzumab emtansine with Children's ElixSure?

The acetaminophen in Children's ElixSure 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.

Ado-trastuzumab emtansine has a moderate potential interaction with Arrhythmia.

Decreases in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) have been reported with agents that block HER2 activity. Patients who have received prior anthracyclines, those who received anthracycline after stopping therapy with agents that block HER2 activity, or patients who received prior radiotherapy to the chest area may be at higher risk of decreased LVEF. Therapy with these agents should be administered cautiously in patients with a previous history of heart conditions. Evaluate cardiac function before, during, and upon completion of treatment. Withhold or discontinue therapy with agents that block HER2 activity as appropriate, and for a confirmed clinically significant decrease in left ventricular function, or if the LVEF has not improved or has declined further. It is recommended to monitor overall cardiac function and LVEF by echocardiogram or MUGA scan as appropriate.

The acetaminophen in Children's ElixSure 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.

Ado-trastuzumab emtansine has a major potential interaction with Liver Disease.

Serious hepatotoxicity, predominantly in the form of asymptomatic, transient increases in the concentrations of serum transaminases including liver failure and death has been reported in patients treated with the antibody-drug conjugate, ado-trastuzumab emtansine (Kadcyla). Cases of nodular regenerative hyperplasia (NRH) of the liver, a rare condition characterized by widespread benign transformation of hepatic parenchyma into small regenerative nodules, have been reported in clinical trials. If NRH is confirmed, treatment must be permanently discontinued. Monitor serum transaminases and bilirubin before initiation of treatment and before each dose. It is recommended to reduce the dose or discontinue therapy with ado-trastuzumab emtansine as appropriate in cases of increased serum transaminases or total bilirubin. In patients with serum transaminases > 3 × ULN and concomitant total bilirubin > 2 × ULN, permanently discontinue treatment.

The acetaminophen in Children's ElixSure has a moderate potential interaction with Phenylketonuria.

Several oral acetaminophen and acetaminophen-combination products, particularly flavored chewable tablets, contain the artificial sweetener, aspartame (NutraSweet). Aspartame is converted to phenylalanine in the gastrointestinal tract following ingestion. Chewable and effervescent formulations of acetaminophen products may also contain phenylalanine. The aspartame/phenylalanine content should be considered when these products are used in patients who must restrict their intake of phenylalanine (i.e. phenylketonurics).

Pulmonary toxicity, sometimes fatal has been reported with agents that block HER2 activity. Pulmonary toxicity includes dyspnea, interstitial pneumonitis, pulmonary infiltrates, pleural effusions, non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema, pulmonary insufficiency and hypoxia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and pulmonary fibrosis. Patients with symptomatic intrinsic lung disease or with extensive tumor involvement of the lungs, resulting in dyspnea at rest may be at increased risk of pulmonary toxicity and appear to have more severe toxicity. Patients should be monitored for pulmonary symptoms. Permanently discontinue treatment with these agents in patients diagnosed with interstitial lung disease or pneumonitis and institute appropriate care.

Thrombocytopenia has been reported with the use of agents that block HER2 activity. Monitor platelet counts prior to initiation of therapy and prior to each dose. If appropriate modify the dose according to clinical guidelines. Patients with decreased platelet count and patients on anti-coagulant treatment should be closely monitored during treatment with these agents.
