This report displays the potential drug interactions for the following 2 drugs:
- alectinib
- Prevduo (glycopyrrolate/neostigmine)
Interactions between your drugs
neostigmine glycopyrrolate
Applies to: Prevduo (glycopyrrolate / neostigmine) and Prevduo (glycopyrrolate / neostigmine)
Ask your doctor before using neostigmine together with glycopyrrolate. Using these medications together can cause increasing muscle weakness. In addition, such use may mask the less serious, gastrointestinal signs of glycopyrrolate overdose and lead to difficulty breathing, chest pain, and possibly death. If your doctor prescribes these medications together, you may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely use both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
neostigmine alectinib
Applies to: Prevduo (glycopyrrolate / neostigmine) and alectinib
Both alectinib and neostigmine can slow the heart rate, and using them together may increase this effect and cause irregular heart rhythm and blood pressure problems. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring to safely use both medications. Contact your doctor if you develop significant decreases in heart rate or symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, or feeling faint. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
Drug and food interactions
alectinib food
Applies to: alectinib
Food significantly increases the absorption of alectinib. You should take each dose of alectinib with food. Taking it on an empty stomach may lead to inadequate blood levels and reduced effectiveness of the medication.
glycopyrrolate food
Applies to: Prevduo (glycopyrrolate / neostigmine)
Ask your doctor before using glycopyrrolate together with ethanol (alcohol). Use alcohol cautiously. Alcohol may increase drowsiness and dizziness while you are taking glycopyrrolate. You should be warned not to exceed recommended dosages and to avoid activities requiring mental alertness. If your doctor prescribes these medications together, you may need a dose adjustment to safely take this combination. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
