Interactions between Amoxicillin and Voranigo

Amoxicillin has a moderate potential interaction with Diabetes Mellitus.

High urine concentrations of ampicillin may result in false-positive reactions when testing for the presence of glucose in urine using Clinitest®, Benedict's Solution or Fehling's Solution. Since this effect may also occur with amoxicillin, it is recommended that glucose tests based on enzymatic glucose oxidase reactions (such as Clinistix®) be used.

Amoxicillin has a moderate potential interaction with Hemodialysis.

Penicillin antibiotics (except for agents in the penicillinase-resistant class) are removed by hemodialysis. Doses should either be scheduled for administration after dialysis or supplemental doses be given after dialysis.

The vorasidenib in Voranigo has a moderate potential interaction with Liver Disease.

The pharmacokinetics and safety of vorasidenib have not been studied in patients with severe liver dysfunction (Child-Pugh C); these patients should be monitored for increased adverse reactions and the dosage should be modified for adverse reactions as recommended in the manufacturer product information. No dosage adjustment is recommended for patients with mild or moderate liver dysfunction (Child-Pugh A or B).

Amoxicillin has a moderate potential interaction with Mononucleosis.

Patients with mononucleosis treated with an aminopenicillin antibiotic, may develop a pruritic erythematous maculopapular skin rash. The rash is usually self-limiting and resolves within days of discontinuing the offending agent. An altered drug metabolism or an immune-mediated process unrelated to drug hypersensitivity has been proposed as the underlying mechanism. Therapy with aminopenicillin antibiotics should not be administered in patients with mononucleosis.

Amoxicillin has a major potential interaction with Noninfectious Colitis.

Clostridioides difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD), formerly pseudomembranous colitis, has been reported with almost all antibacterial drugs and may range from mild diarrhea to fatal colitis. The most common culprits include clindamycin and lincomycin. Antibacterial therapy alters the normal flora of the colon, leading to overgrowth of C difficile, whose toxins A and B contribute to CDAD development. Morbidity and mortality are increased with hypertoxin-producing strains of C difficile; these infections can be resistant to antimicrobial therapy and may require colectomy. CDAD must be considered in all patients who present with diarrhea after antibacterial use. Since CDAD has been reported to occur more than 2 months after antibacterial use, careful medical history is necessary. Therapy with broad-spectrum antibacterials and other agents with significant antibacterial activity should be administered cautiously in patients with history of gastrointestinal disease, particularly colitis; pseudomembranous colitis (generally characterized by severe, persistent diarrhea and severe abdominal cramps, and sometimes associated with the passage of blood and mucus), if it occurs, may be more severe in these patients and may be associated with flares in underlying disease activity. Antibacterial drugs not directed against C difficile may need to be stopped if CDAD is suspected or confirmed. Appropriate fluid and electrolyte management, protein supplementation, antibacterial treatment of C difficile, and surgical evaluation should be started as clinically indicated.

Amoxicillin has a moderate potential interaction with Phenylketonuria.

Some amoxicillin chewable tablets and suspensions products contain phenylalanine. The phenylalanine content should be considered when these products are used in patients who must restrict their intake of phenylalanine (i.e. phenylketonurics).

Amoxicillin has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Most beta-lactam antibiotics are eliminated by the kidney as unchanged drug and, in some cases, also as metabolites. The serum concentrations of beta-lactam antibiotics and their metabolites may be increased and the half-lives prolonged in patients with impaired renal function. Dosage adjustments may be necessary and modifications should be based on the degree of renal impairment as well as severity of infection in accordance with the individual product package labeling. Renal function tests should be performed periodically during prolonged and/or high-dose therapy, since nephrotoxicity and alterations in renal function have occasionally been associated with the use of these drugs.

The vorasidenib in Voranigo has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

The pharmacokinetics and safety of vorasidenib have not been studied in patients with CrCl up to 40 mL/min or renal dysfunction requiring dialysis; these patients should be monitored for increased adverse reactions and the dosage should be modified for adverse reactions as recommended in the manufacturer product information. No dosage adjustment is recommended for patients with CrCl greater than 40 mL/min.

The vorasidenib in Voranigo has a moderate potential interaction with Smoking.

Tobacco smoking may decrease vorasidenib plasma levels, which may reduce its antitumor activity. Patients and caregivers should be advised to inform their health care provider if they currently smoke tobacco.
