Can you take Apalutamide with Clobazam?

cloBAZam has a major potential interaction with Acute Alcohol Intoxication.

The use of benzodiazepines with alcohol is not recommended. Patients with acute alcohol intoxication exhibit depressed vital signs. The central nervous system depressant effects of benzodiazepines may be additive with those of alcohol, and severe respiratory depression and death may occur. Therapy with benzodiazepines should be administered cautiously in patients who might be prone to acute alcohol intake.

cloBAZam has a moderate potential interaction with Depression.

Benzodiazepines depress the central nervous system and may cause or exacerbate mental depression and cause suicidal behavior and ideation. Episodes of mania and hypomania have also been reported in depressed patients treated with some of these agents. Therapy with benzodiazepines should be administered cautiously in patients with a history of depression or other psychiatric disorders. Patients should be monitored for any changes in mood or behavior. It may be prudent to refrain from dispensing large quantities of medication to these patients.

Apalutamide has a moderate potential interaction with Diabetes Mellitus.

Ischemic cardiovascular events, including events leading to death, occurred in patients receiving apalutamide. It is recommended to monitor for signs and symptoms of ischemic heart disease and to consider discontinuation of treatment for Grade 3 and 4 events. Care should be exercised when prescribing this agent in patients at risk of an ischemic cardiovascular event, such as in those patients with hypertension, diabetes, or dyslipidemia.

cloBAZam has a major potential interaction with Drug Dependence.

Benzodiazepines have the potential to cause dependence and abuse. Tolerance as well as physical and psychological dependence can develop, particularly after prolonged use and/or excessive dosages. However, abrupt cessation following continual use of as few as 6 weeks at therapeutic levels has occasionally precipitated withdrawal symptoms. Addiction- prone individuals, such as those with a history of alcohol or substance abuse, should be under careful surveillance when treated with benzodiazepines. It may be prudent to refrain from dispensing large quantities of medication to these patients. After prolonged use or if dependency is suspected, withdrawal of benzodiazepine therapy should be undertaken gradually using a dosage- tapering schedule. If withdrawal symptoms occur, temporary reinstitution of benzodiazepines may be necessary.

Apalutamide has a moderate potential interaction with High Blood Pressure.

Ischemic cardiovascular events, including events leading to death, occurred in patients receiving apalutamide. It is recommended to monitor for signs and symptoms of ischemic heart disease and to consider discontinuation of treatment for Grade 3 and 4 events. Care should be exercised when prescribing this agent in patients at risk of an ischemic cardiovascular event, such as in those patients with hypertension, diabetes, or dyslipidemia.

Apalutamide has a moderate potential interaction with High Cholesterol.

Ischemic cardiovascular events, including events leading to death, occurred in patients receiving apalutamide.

Apalutamide has a moderate potential interaction with Liver Disease.

No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of apalutamide or its major metabolite were observed in patients with mild (Child-Pugh A) to moderate (Child-Pugh B) hepatic impairment. The effect on patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C) on apalutamide pharmacokinetics is unknown. Close monitoring of liver function is recommended in these patients.

Apalutamide has a moderate potential interaction with Metabolic Bone Disorders.

Falls and fractures have occurred in patients receiving apalutamide. Care should be exercised when apalutamide is used in patients at risk for fractures or falls and in those patients with osteoporosis. It is recommended to evaluate patients for fracture and fall risk and to consider the use of bone-targeted agents as medically necessary.

Apalutamide has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of apalutamide or its major metabolite were observed in patients with mild to moderate renal impairment. The effect on patients with severe renal impairment or end-stage renal disease on apalutamide pharmacokinetics is unknown. Close monitoring of renal function is recommended in these patients.

cloBAZam has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Benzodiazepines are excreted by the kidneys and should be used with caution in patients with impaired renal function and end-stage kidney disease.

Apalutamide has a moderate potential interaction with Seizures.

The use of apalutamide may cause seizures. It is recommended to discontinue this agent in patients who develop a seizure while on treatment. Care should be exercised when using apalutamide in patients at risk or with a history of seizure disorder.
