Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

aspirin trospium

Applies to: aspirin / caffeine / dihydrocodeine and trospium

MONITOR: Theoretically, coadministration of trospium chloride with other drugs that are eliminated by active tubular secretion may result in increased plasma concentrations of trospium and/or the coadministered drug(s). The mechanism is competitive inhibition of renal excretion. Drugs that are thought to undergo active tubular secretion include acyclovir/valacyclovir, cidofovir, cimetidine, digoxin, flecainide, ganciclovir/valganciclovir, metformin, midodrine, morphine, pancuronium, procainamide, quinidine, ranitidine, tenofovir, triamterene, and vancomycin.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving trospium chloride in combination with other drugs that undergo active tubular secretion should be monitored for excessive pharmacologic effects of one or both drugs, and the dosages of the drugs adjusted if necessary.

dihydrocodeine trospium

Applies to: aspirin / caffeine / dihydrocodeine and trospium

MONITOR: Coadministration of opioids with anticholinergic agents may result in additive central nervous system (CNS), gastrointestinal, and genitourinary effects. The risk and/or severity of adverse effects such as sedation, dizziness, confusion, cognitive and psychomotor impairment, dry mouth, constipation, and urinary retention may increase. Severe constipation may lead to paralytic ileus in some cases.

MANAGEMENT: Caution and close monitoring of central nervous system, gastrointestinal, and genitourinary adverse effects are recommended when opioids are used with anticholinergic agents. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how these agents affect them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities.

aspirin caffeine

Applies to: aspirin / caffeine / dihydrocodeine and aspirin / caffeine / dihydrocodeine

One study has reported that coadministration of caffeine and aspirin lead to a 25% increase in the rate of appearance and 17% increase in maximum concentration of salicylate in the plasma. A significantly higher area under the plasma concentration time curve of salicylate was also reported when both drugs were administered together. The exact mechanism of this interaction has not been specified. Physicians and patients should be aware that coadministration of aspirin and caffeine may lead to higher salicylate levels faster.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

trospium food

Applies to: trospium

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may reduce the oral absorption and bioavailability of trospium chloride. According to the product labeling, administration of trospium chloride with a high fat meal reduced the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) by 70% to 80% compared to administration while fasting.

MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, trospium chloride should be administered at least 1 hour before meals or on an empty stomach. If trospium chloride is administered as a combination with xanomeline, the manufacturer recommends administering the capsules at least 1 hour before a meal or at least 2 hours after a meal. Capsules should be taken whole.

aspirin food

Applies to: aspirin / caffeine / dihydrocodeine

GENERALLY AVOID: The concurrent use of aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and ethanol may lead to gastrointestinal (GI) blood loss. The mechanism may be due to a combined local effect as well as inhibition of prostaglandins leading to decreased integrity of the GI lining.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should be counseled on this potential interaction and advised to refrain from alcohol consumption while taking aspirin or NSAIDs.

caffeine food

Applies to: aspirin / caffeine / dihydrocodeine

The effect of grapefruit juice on the pharmacologic activity of caffeine is controversial. One report suggests that grapefruit juice increases the effect of caffeine. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of cytochrome P-450 metabolism of caffeine. However, a well-conducted pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic study did not demonstrate this effect. The clinical significance of this potential interaction is unknown.

Drug Interaction Classification

These classifications are only a guideline. The relevance of a particular drug interaction to a specific individual is difficult to determine. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or stopping any medication.
Major Highly clinically significant. Avoid combinations; the risk of the interaction outweighs the benefit.
Moderate Moderately clinically significant. Usually avoid combinations; use it only under special circumstances.
Minor Minimally clinically significant. Minimize risk; assess risk and consider an alternative drug, take steps to circumvent the interaction risk and/or institute a monitoring plan.
Unknown No interaction information available.
