Drug and food interactions
ramelteon food
Applies to: Rozerem (ramelteon)
GENERALLY AVOID: Alcohol may potentiate some of the pharmacologic effects of ramelteon. Use in combination may result in additive central nervous system depression and/or impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills.
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration of ramelteon with or immediately after a high-fat/heavy meal may delay the onset of hypnotic effects. In study subjects, administration of a 16 mg dose of ramelteon with a high-fat meal decreased the peak plasma drug concentration (Cmax) by 22% and delayed the median time to reach peak plasma drug concentration (Tmax) by approximately 45 minutes compared to administration in a fasted state.
MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving ramelteon should be advised to avoid the consumption of alcohol. For faster sleep onset, ramelteon should not be administered with or immediately after a high-fat/heavy meal.

albuterol food
Applies to: albuterol
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.
