This report displays the potential drug interactions for the following 2 drugs:
- atomoxetine
- Troxyca ER (naltrexone/oxycodone)
Interactions between your drugs
oxyCODONE naltrexone
Applies to: Troxyca ER (naltrexone / oxycodone) and Troxyca ER (naltrexone / oxycodone)
Using naltrexone together with oxyCODONE is not recommended. Naltrexone can block the effects of oxyCODONE and make the medication less effective in treating your condition. If you have been receiving oxyCODONE for a while (for example, a week or longer), naltrexone can also precipitate withdrawal symptoms. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring to safely use both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
oxyCODONE atomoxetine
Applies to: Troxyca ER (naltrexone / oxycodone) and atomoxetine
Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.
MONITOR: Serotonin syndrome has been reported following the concomitant use of atomoxetine with other serotonergic medicinal products. The use of agents with serotonergic activity (such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), tetracyclic antidepressants, tricyclic antidepressants, 5-HT1 receptor agonists (triptans), ergot alkaloids, lithium, St. John's wort, phenylpiperidine opioids, dextromethorphan, and tryptophan, among others) may potentiate the risk of serotonin syndrome, a rare but serious and potentially fatal condition. Symptoms of serotonin syndrome may include mental status changes such as irritability, altered consciousness, confusion, hallucination, and coma; autonomic dysfunction such as tachycardia, hyperthermia, diaphoresis, shivering, blood pressure lability, and mydriasis; neuromuscular abnormalities such as hyperreflexia, myoclonus, tremor, rigidity, and ataxia; and gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal cramping, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
MANAGEMENT: Some authorities advise caution and closer monitoring for serotonin syndrome when atomoxetine is coadministered with other serotonergic agents, especially during initiation and dose escalations. Patients should be instructed to promptly notify their healthcare provider if they experience symptoms of serotonin syndrome. If serotonin syndrome is suspected, a dose reduction or discontinuation of therapy should be considered depending on the severity of the symptoms. If serotonin syndrome develops during therapy, all serotonergic agents should be discontinued immediately and supportive care rendered as necessary. Due to variability and occasionally prolonged half-lives of these coadministered agents, consulting individual product labeling for specific guidance is advised.
naltrexone atomoxetine
Applies to: Troxyca ER (naltrexone / oxycodone) and atomoxetine
Naltrexone may cause liver problems, and using it with other medications that can also affect the liver such as atomoxetine may increase that risk. You should avoid or limit the use of alcohol while being treated with these medications. Call your doctor immediately if you have fever, chills, joint pain or swelling, unusual bleeding or bruising, skin rash, itching, loss of appetite, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, dark urine, pale stools, and/or yellowing of the skin or eyes, as these may be signs and symptoms of liver damage. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions or concerns. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
Drug and food interactions
oxyCODONE food
Applies to: Troxyca ER (naltrexone / oxycodone)
Do not use alcohol or medications that contain alcohol while you are receiving treatment with oxyCODONE. This may increase nervous system side effects such as drowsiness, dizziness, lightheadedness, difficulty concentrating, and impairment in thinking and judgment. In severe cases, low blood pressure, respiratory distress, fainting, coma, or even death may occur. You may also want to avoid or limit the consumption of grapefruit and grapefruit juice, which can significantly increase the blood levels of oxycodone in some people. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have questions on how to take this or other medications you are prescribed. Do not use more than the recommended dose of oxyCODONE, and avoid activities requiring mental alertness such as driving or operating hazardous machinery until you know how the medication affects you. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medication without first talking to your doctor.
naltrexone food
Applies to: Troxyca ER (naltrexone / oxycodone)
Naltrexone may cause liver problems, and using it with other medications that can also affect the liver such as ethanol (alcohol) may increase that risk. You should avoid or limit the use of alcohol while being treated with these medications. Call your doctor immediately if you have fever, chills, joint pain or swelling, unusual bleeding or bruising, skin rash, itching, loss of appetite, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, dark urine, pale stools, and/or yellowing of the skin or eyes, as these may be signs and symptoms of liver damage. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions or concerns. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs.
