Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

bismuth subsalicylate omadacycline

Applies to: bismuth subsalicylate and omadacycline

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration of a bismuth-containing preparation within two to three hours of a tetracycline may significantly decrease serum tetracycline concentrations. Data are available for tetracycline and doxycycline. The proposed mechanism is chelation of tetracycline by bismuth.

MANAGEMENT: Administration of a tetracycline and bismuth-containing preparation should be separated by two to three hours. Patients should be monitored for diminished tetracycline efficacy.

omadacycline food

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.
