Can you take Amlodipine with Natesto?

amLODIPine has a major potential interaction with Aortic Stenosis.

In general, calcium channel blockers (CCBs) should not be used in patients with hypotension (systolic pressure < 90 mm Hg) or cardiogenic shock. Due to potential negative inotropic and peripheral vasodilating effects, the use of CCBs may further depress cardiac output and blood pressure, which can be detrimental in these patients. The use of verapamil and diltiazem is specifically contraindicated under these circumstances.

The testosterone in Natesto has a major potential interaction with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.

The use of androgenic anabolic steroids is contraindicated for male patients with carcinoma of the breast or prostate. Circulating androgens can be converted in peripheral tissues to estrogens and dihydrotestosterone, which may act as promoters of tumor growth in the breast and prostate, respectively. Likewise, androgenic agents may cause enlargement of the prostate and should be used cautiously in patients with or predisposed to prostatic hypertrophy.

The testosterone in Natesto has a major potential interaction with Bleeding Disorder.

Androgenic anabolic steroids may cause suppression of clotting factors II, V, VII, and X, and an increase in prothrombin time. Androgen therapy should be administered cautiously in patients with bleeding disorders.

The testosterone in Natesto has a major potential interaction with Breast Cancer.

When treated with androgenic anabolic steroids, patients with metastatic breast cancer may develop hypercalcemia due to osteolysis. Frequent determination of urine and serum calcium levels is recommended during therapy with androgenic agents. If hypercalcemia occurs, therapy should be stopped. The development of hypercalcemia may indicate progression of metastases to the bone.

The testosterone in Natesto has a moderate potential interaction with Diabetes Mellitus.

The metabolic effects of androgenic anabolic steroids may lower blood glucose. Decreased glucose tolerance and increased insulin resistance have also been reported. Patients with diabetes mellitus should be monitored more closely during therapy with androgenic agents, and their antidiabetic regimen adjusted accordingly.

The testosterone in Natesto has a major potential interaction with Fluid Retention.

Androgenic anabolic steroids may cause sodium and water retention, particularly when given in high dosages or for prolonged periods. Therapy with these agents should be administered cautiously in patients who have preexisting problems with fluid overload or are at risk for developing edema. The manufacturers consider the use of androgenic agents to be contraindicated in patients with severe cardiac, renal and/or hepatic dysfunction.

amLODIPine has a moderate potential interaction with Heart Attack.

Calcium channel blockers (CCBs) may have varying degrees of negative inotropic effect. Congestive heart failure (CHF), worsening of CHF, and pulmonary edema have occurred in some patients treated with a CCB, primarily verapamil. Some CCBs have also caused mild to moderate peripheral edema due to localized vasodilation of dependent arterioles and small blood vessels, which can be confused with the effects of increasing left ventricular dysfunction. Although some CCBs have been used in the treatment of CHF, therapy with CCBs should be administered cautiously in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction (e.g., ejection fraction < 30%) or moderate to severe symptoms of cardiac failure and in patients with any degree of ventricular dysfunction if they are receiving a beta-adrenergic blocker. Likewise, caution is advised in patients with acute myocardial infarction and pulmonary congestion documented by X-ray on admission, since associated heart failure may be acutely worsened by administration of a CCB.

The testosterone in Natesto has a major potential interaction with High Cholesterol.

Androgenic anabolic steroids may adversely affect serum lipids, including lowering HDL and elevating LDL levels. These changes can be marked, particularly with the 17-alpha-alkyl derivatives (i.e., fluoxymesterone, methyltestosterone, oxandrolone, oxymetholone, and stanozolol), and may significantly impact the risk of atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease. Patients with preexisting hyperlipoproteinemia may require closer monitoring during therapy with androgenic agents, and adjustments made accordingly in their lipid-lowering regimen. Androgen therapy should be administered cautiously in patients with coronary artery disease or a history of ischemic heart disease.

The testosterone in Natesto has a moderate potential interaction with Hypercalcemia.

Androgenic anabolic steroids decrease urinary excretion of calcium, which may result in hypercalcemia. Therapy with androgenic agents should be administered cautiously in patients with hypercalcemia, disorders of bone metabolism such as hyperparathyroidism, or renal dysfunction. Some manufacturers consider the use of androgenic anabolic steroids to be contraindicated in patients with hypercalcemia.

The testosterone in Natesto has a minor potential interaction with Hyperthyroidism.

When androgenic anabolic steroids are used in patients with thyroid disorders, clinicians should be aware that these agents may affect thyroid function tests. Specifically, thyroid-binding globulin levels may be decreased, resulting in lower total T4 serum levels and increased resin uptake of T3 and T4. Free thyroid hormone levels remain unchanged, however.

amLODIPine has a major potential interaction with Hypotension.

In general, calcium channel blockers (CCBs) should not be used in patients with hypotension (systolic pressure < 90 mm Hg) or cardiogenic shock.

Androgen therapy should be administered cautiously in patients with coronary artery disease or a history of ischemic heart disease.

amLODIPine has a major potential interaction with Liver Disease.

Calcium channel blockers (CCBs) are extensively metabolized by the liver. The half-lives of CCBs may be prolonged substantially in patients with severe hepatic impairment, with the potential for significant drug accumulation. In addition, the use of some CCBs has been associated with elevations in serum transaminases, both with and without concomitant elevations in alkaline phosphatase and bilirubin. While these effects may be transient and reversible, some patients have developed cholestasis or hepatocellular injury. Therapy with CCBs should be administered cautiously and often at reduced dosages in patients with significantly impaired hepatic function. Periodic monitoring of liver function is advised.

The testosterone in Natesto has a major potential interaction with Liver Disease.

The use of androgenic anabolic steroids may be associated with development of cholestatic hepatitis and jaundice. Other, more serious hepatotoxicities such as peliosis hepatis and hepatocellular neoplasms are rare but may occur with prolonged use or high dosages. These latter toxicities may be fatal and often not recognized until they become life-threatening. Patients with preexisting liver diseases should be monitored more closely during therapy with anabolic steroids if they are used. If liver function declines or toxicity occurs, therapy should be withdrawn and the cause investigated.

The testosterone in Natesto has a major potential interaction with Polycythemia.

Androgenic anabolic steroids may cause polycythemia when given in high dosages or for prolonged periods. Patients with preexisting polycythemia may experience worsening of their condition. Frequent monitoring of clinical status and hemoglobin and hematocrit levels is recommended if androgen therapy is administered to these patients.
