Can you take Bitolterol with Osilodrostat?

Osilodrostat has a moderate potential interaction with Adrenal Insufficiency.

Osilodrostat lowers cortisol levels and can lead to hypocortisolism and sometimes life-threatening adrenal insufficiency. Patients should be evaluated for precipitating causes of hypocortisolism. Serum/plasma cortisol, 24-hour urine free cortisol, and patient's signs/symptoms should be monitored periodically during treatment. Osilodrostat should be decreased or temporarily discontinued if urine free cortisol levels fall below the target range, there is a rapid decrease in cortisol levels, and/or patients report hypocortisolism symptoms. Therapy should be stopped and exogenous glucocorticoid replacement therapy should be administered if serum/plasma cortisol levels are below the target range and patients have symptoms of adrenal insufficiency. Osilodrostat should be restarted at a lower dose when urine free cortisol and serum/plasma cortisol levels are within the target range, and/or patient symptoms have resolved.

Osilodrostat has a moderate potential interaction with Arrhythmia.

The use of osilodrostat is associated with a dose-dependent QT interval prolongation, which may cause cardiac arrhythmias. It is recommended to perform an ECG to obtain a baseline QTc interval measurement before starting therapy and to monitor for an effect on the QTc interval thereafter. Temporary discontinuation of osilodrostat should be considered in the case of an increase in QTc interval greater than 480 milliseconds. Hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia should be corrected before initiating treatment and monitored regularly during treatment. Electrolyte abnormalities should be corrected if indicated. Care should be exercised when using this agent in patients with risk factors for QT prolongation and more frequent ECG monitoring should be considered.

Bitolterol has a moderate potential interaction with Diabetes Mellitus.

Adrenergic bronchodilators may cause increases in blood glucose concentrations. These effects are usually transient and slight, but may be significant with dosages higher than those normally recommended. Large doses of IV albuterol (not commercially available in the U.S.) and terbutaline sulfate have been reported to cause exacerbation of preexisting diabetes mellitus and ketoacidosis. Therapy with adrenergic bronchodilators should be administered cautiously in patients with diabetes mellitus. Closer monitoring of blood glucose concentrations may be appropriate. Systemic adverse effects are minimized, but not abolished, by administration of these agents via oral inhalation.

Osilodrostat has a moderate potential interaction with Electrolyte Abnormalities.

The use of osilodrostat is associated with a dose-dependent QT interval prolongation, which may cause cardiac arrhythmias. It is recommended to perform an ECG to obtain a baseline QTc interval measurement before starting therapy and to monitor for an effect on the QTc interval thereafter. Temporary discontinuation of osilodrostat should be considered in the case of an increase in QTc interval greater than 480 milliseconds. Hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia should be corrected before initiating treatment and monitored regularly during treatment. Electrolyte abnormalities should be corrected if indicated. Care should be exercised when using this agent in patients with risk factors for QT prolongation and more frequent ECG monitoring should be considered.

Bitolterol has a moderate potential interaction with Heart Disease.

Adrenergic bronchodilators can stimulate cardiovascular beta- 1 and beta- 2 receptors, resulting in adverse effects such as tachycardia, palpitation, peripheral vasodilation, blood pressure changes, and ECG changes (e.g., flattening of the T wave; prolongation of the QT interval; ST segment depression). Direct stimulation of cardiac tissues is mediated by beta- 1 receptors and thus less likely to occur with beta-2-selective agents such as albuterol. However, beta-2-selectivity is not absolute and can be lost with larger doses. High dosages of these agents have been associated with precipitation or aggravation of angina, myocardial ischemia, and cardiac arrhythmias. Therapy with adrenergic bronchodilators should be administered cautiously in patients with sensitivity to sympathomimetic amines, hyperthyroidism, and/or underlying cardiovascular disorders such as coronary insufficiency, cardiac arrhythmias, or hypertension. The recommended dosages should not be exceeded.

Osilodrostat has a moderate potential interaction with Heart Failure.

The use of osilodrostat is associated with a dose-dependent QT interval prolongation, which may cause cardiac arrhythmias.

Bitolterol has a moderate potential interaction with Hypokalemia.

Adrenergic bronchodilators may cause decreases in serum potassium concentrations, primarily when given by nebulization or intravenous administration. Although this effect is usually transient and does not require supplementation, clinically significant hypokalemia may occur in some patients, with the potential to induce cardiovascular adverse effects. The relevance of these observations to oral or oral aerosol/powder for inhalation therapy is unknown. Therapy with adrenergic bronchodilators should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to hypokalemia.

Osilodrostat has a moderate potential interaction with Hypokalemia.

The use of osilodrostat is associated with a dose-dependent QT interval prolongation, which may cause cardiac arrhythmias. It is recommended to perform an ECG to obtain a baseline QTc interval measurement before starting therapy and to monitor for an effect on the QTc interval thereafter. Temporary discontinuation of osilodrostat should be considered in the case of an increase in QTc interval greater than 480 milliseconds. Hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia should be corrected before initiating treatment and monitored regularly during treatment. Electrolyte abnormalities should be corrected if indicated. Care should be exercised when using this agent in patients with risk factors for QT prolongation and more frequent ECG monitoring should be considered.

Osilodrostat has a moderate potential interaction with Liver Disease.

Dosage adjustment of osilodrostat is required for patients with moderate to severe liver dysfunction. The recommended starting dose for patients with moderate liver dysfunction is 1 mg orally twice a day, and for patients with severe liver dysfunction is 1 mg orally once a day in the evening. No dose adjustment is required in patients with mild liver dysfunction. More frequent monitoring of adrenal function may be needed during dose titration in all patients with liver dysfunction.

Osilodrostat has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

No dosage adjustment of osilodrostat is required for patients with impaired renal function. However, in patients with moderate to severe renal dysfunction, urinary free cortisol (UFC) levels should be interpreted with caution due to reduced UFC excretion.

Bitolterol has a moderate potential interaction with Seizures.

Adrenergic bronchodilators may cause CNS stimulation. Therapy with adrenergic bronchodilators should be administered cautiously in patients with seizure disorders. Systemic adverse effects are minimized, but not abolished, by administration of these agents via oral inhalation.
