Edit list (add/remove drugs)

Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

ibuprofen ticlopidine

Applies to: Advil Allergy Sinus (chlorpheniramine / ibuprofen / pseudoephedrine) and ticlopidine

MONITOR: Ticlopidine has been reported to potentiate the effect of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDs) on platelet aggregation. The risk of bleeding may be increased, especially in patients with a history of gastrointestinal (GI) ulceration or bleeding. The safety of concomitant use has not been established.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms of bleeding, especially GI bleeding, if NSAIDs and ticlopidine are coadministered. They should be advised to promptly report any signs of bleeding to their physician, including abdominal pain, vomiting blood, red or black stools, swelling, headache, dizziness, weakness, prolonged bleeding from cuts, nosebleeds, bleeding of gums from brushing, red or brown urine, or other unusual bleeding or bruising. Patients should also be counseled to avoid any other over-the-counter NSAID products.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

chlorpheniramine food

Applies to: Advil Allergy Sinus (chlorpheniramine / ibuprofen / pseudoephedrine)

GENERALLY AVOID: Alcohol may potentiate some of the pharmacologic effects of CNS-active agents. Use in combination may result in additive central nervous system depression and/or impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving CNS-active agents should be warned of this interaction and advised to avoid or limit consumption of alcohol. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring complete mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how these agents affect them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities.

ibuprofen food

Applies to: Advil Allergy Sinus (chlorpheniramine / ibuprofen / pseudoephedrine)

GENERALLY AVOID: The concurrent use of aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and ethanol may lead to gastrointestinal (GI) blood loss. The mechanism may be due to a combined local effect as well as inhibition of prostaglandins leading to decreased integrity of the GI lining.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should be counseled on this potential interaction and advised to refrain from alcohol consumption while taking aspirin or NSAIDs.

Moderate

pseudoephedrine food

Applies to: Advil Allergy Sinus (chlorpheniramine / ibuprofen / pseudoephedrine)

MONITOR: Coadministration of two or more sympathomimetic agents may increase the risk of adverse effects such as nervousness, irritability, and increased heart rate. Central nervous system (CNS) stimulants, particularly amphetamines, can potentiate the adrenergic response to vasopressors and other sympathomimetic agents. 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 agents are coadministered. Pulse and blood pressure should be closely monitored.

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.
