Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

ibuprofen trospium

Applies to: Advil Cold and Sinus Liqui-Gels (ibuprofen / pseudoephedrine) and trospium

MONITOR: Theoretically, coadministration of trospium chloride with other drugs that are eliminated by active tubular secretion may result in increased plasma concentrations of trospium and/or the coadministered drug(s). The mechanism is competitive inhibition of renal excretion. Drugs that are thought to undergo active tubular secretion include acyclovir/valacyclovir, cidofovir, cimetidine, digoxin, flecainide, ganciclovir/valganciclovir, metformin, midodrine, morphine, pancuronium, procainamide, quinidine, ranitidine, tenofovir, triamterene, and vancomycin.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving trospium chloride in combination with other drugs that undergo active tubular secretion should be monitored for excessive pharmacologic effects of one or both drugs, and the dosages of the drugs adjusted if necessary.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

trospium food

Applies to: trospium

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may reduce the oral absorption and bioavailability of trospium chloride. According to the product labeling, administration of trospium chloride with a high fat meal reduced the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) by 70% to 80% compared to administration while fasting.

MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, trospium chloride should be administered at least 1 hour before meals or on an empty stomach. If trospium chloride is administered as a combination with xanomeline, the manufacturer recommends administering the capsules at least 1 hour before a meal or at least 2 hours after a meal. Capsules should be taken whole.

ibuprofen food

Applies to: Advil Cold and Sinus Liqui-Gels (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.

pseudoephedrine food

Applies to: Advil Cold and Sinus Liqui-Gels (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.

Drug Interaction Classification

These classifications are only a guideline. The relevance of a particular drug interaction to a specific individual is difficult to determine. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or stopping any medication.
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.
