Drug Interactions between aspirin / omeprazole and Mudrane
This report displays the potential drug interactions for the following 2 drugs:
- aspirin/omeprazole
- Mudrane (aminophylline/ephedrine/phenobarbital/potassium iodide)
Interactions between your drugs
PHENobarbital aminophylline
Applies to: Mudrane (aminophylline / ephedrine / phenobarbital / potassium iodide) and Mudrane (aminophylline / ephedrine / phenobarbital / potassium iodide)
MONITOR: Barbiturates may decrease serum levels and therapeutic effects of the methylxanthines. The mechanism is barbiturate induction of CYP450 3A4 and 1A2 hepatic metabolism of methylxanthines.
MANAGEMENT: Close observation for clinical and laboratory evidence of decreased methylxanthine effect is indicated if these drugs must be used together. Patients should be advised to notify their physician if they experience a worsening of their respiratory symptoms.

aspirin omeprazole
Applies to: aspirin / omeprazole and aspirin / omeprazole
Coadministration with proton pump inhibitors may decrease the oral bioavailability of aspirin and other salicylates. The interaction has been studied with omeprazole and aspirin, although data are conflicting. In one study, pretreatment with omeprazole (20 mg/day for 2 days) in 11 healthy volunteers led to a significant and progressively greater reduction in the mean serum salicylate level at 30, 60, and 90 minutes after administration of aspirin (650 mg single dose). The investigators suggest that acid suppression may reduce the lipophilic nature of aspirin, thereby adversely affecting its absorption from the gastrointestinal tract. Another study found no effect of omeprazole pretreatment (20 mg/day for 4 days) on plasma salicylate and aspirin levels, skin bleeding times, or antiplatelet effect of low-dose aspirin (125 mg single dose) in 14 healthy volunteers. However, these results do not exclude the possibility that omeprazole might interfere with the analgesic, antipyretic, or anti-inflammatory effects of aspirin, which has been demonstrated in rats.
Proton pump inhibitors may enhance the release rate of salicylates from enteric-coated formulations due to premature disruption of the coating and intragastric release of the drug secondary to an increase in gastric pH. In eight healthy volunteers, omeprazole pretreatment (20 mg/day for 4 days) did not affect the bioavailability of salicylate from uncoated aspirin tablets but significantly increased the absorption rate of salicylate from enteric-coated sodium salicylate tablets. The clinical significance of this interaction is unknown. Theoretically, it may increase the risk of gastric adverse effects associated with salicylates.

omeprazole PHENobarbital
Applies to: aspirin / omeprazole and Mudrane (aminophylline / ephedrine / phenobarbital / potassium iodide)
Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 2C19 may theoretically increase the plasma concentrations of phenobarbital, which is a substrate of the isoenzyme. Some studies have reported an approximately 20% decrease in the total clearance of phenobarbital in individuals who are poor metabolizers of CYP450 2C19, although an interaction with specific CYP450 2C19 inhibitors has not been reported. Other studies have found no significant difference in the pharmacokinetics of phenobarbital amongst subjects with various CYP450 2C19 genotypes, which would suggest a minor role of CYP450 2C19 in the overall clearance of phenobarbital. No precautions appear to be necessary during coadministration of phenobarbital with CYP450 2C19 inhibitors. However, dosage adjustments may be necessary if an interaction is suspected.

ePHEDrine aminophylline
Applies to: Mudrane (aminophylline / ephedrine / phenobarbital / potassium iodide) and Mudrane (aminophylline / ephedrine / phenobarbital / potassium iodide)
Ephedrine-methylxanthine combinations are used for the treatment of asthma but the efficacy of the combination has been questioned. This combination may lead to increased xanthine side effects. The mechanism is unknown, but may be related to synergistic pharmacologic effects. Patients using this combination should be closely monitored for side effects such as nausea, vomiting, tachycardia, nervousness, or insomnia. If side effects are noted, the dosage of the xanthine may need to be decreased.

Drug and food interactions
PHENobarbital food
Applies to: Mudrane (aminophylline / ephedrine / phenobarbital / potassium iodide)
GENERALLY AVOID: Concurrent acute use of barbiturates and ethanol may result in additive CNS effects, including impaired coordination, sedation, and death. Tolerance of these agents may occur with chronic use. The mechanism is related to inhibition of microsomal enzymes acutely and induction of hepatic microsomal enzymes chronically.
MANAGEMENT: The combination of ethanol and barbiturates should be avoided.

aspirin food
Applies to: aspirin / omeprazole
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.

ePHEDrine food
Applies to: Mudrane (aminophylline / ephedrine / phenobarbital / potassium iodide)
MONITOR: Coadministration of two or more sympathomimetic agents may increase the risk of adverse effects such as nervousness, irritability, and increased heart rate. Central nervous system (CNS) stimulants, particularly amphetamines, can potentiate the adrenergic response to vasopressors and other sympathomimetic agents. Additive increases in blood pressure and heart rate may occur due to enhanced peripheral sympathetic activity.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if two or more sympathomimetic agents are coadministered. Pulse and blood pressure should be closely monitored.

aspirin food
Applies to: aspirin / omeprazole
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.
