Moderate

ibuprofen baricitinib

Applies to: Dristan Sinus (ibuprofen / pseudoephedrine) and baricitinib

MONITOR: Coadministration of Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors with corticosteroids, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and/or opioids may increase the risk of gastrointestinal (GI) perforation. Patients with a prior history of peptic ulceration or diverticular disease may also have an increased risk. Adverse events of diverticulitis and GI perforation have been infrequently reported in clinical studies and postmarketing use of JAK inhibitors such as baricitinib, ruxolitinib, tofacitinib, and upadacitinib. However, the role of JAK inhibition in these events has not been determined. In studies with rheumatoid arthritis and ulcerative colitis patients, many were receiving background therapy with NSAIDs or corticosteroids.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is recommended when using JAK inhibitors in patients with a history of peptic ulceration or diverticular disease and in patients receiving concomitant treatment with drugs associated with an increased risk of GI perforation such as corticosteroids, NSAIDs, and opioids. Patients should be advised to contact their healthcare provider if they experience signs and symptoms of GI perforation such as severe abdominal pain, fever, chills, nausea, or vomiting.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

ibuprofen food

Applies to: Dristan Sinus (ibuprofen / pseudoephedrine)

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.

Applies to: Dristan Sinus (ibuprofen / pseudoephedrine)

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.

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.
