Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

naproxen esomeprazole

Applies to: esomeprazole / naproxen and esomeprazole / naproxen

GENERALLY AVOID: Theoretically, proton pump inhibitors may decrease the gastrointestinal absorption of enteric-coated naproxen, which requires an acidic environment for dissolution. The proposed mechanism is an increase in gastric pH (i.e. decreased gastric acidity) induced by proton pump inhibitors. In patients treated with proton pump inhibitors, the possibility of a reduced or subtherapeutic response to enteric-coated naproxen should be considered.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of these drugs is generally not recommended.

Minor

cyanocobalamin esomeprazole

Applies to: Bonisara (cyanocobalamin / folic acid / pyridoxine / strontium gluconate) and esomeprazole / naproxen

By reducing or suppressing gastric acid secretion, H2-receptor antagonists and proton pump inhibitors may interfere with the gastrointestinal absorption of vitamin B12, a process that is dependent on the presence of gastric acid and pepsin. Clinical studies have shown that dietary (i.e., protein-bound) vitamin B12 malabsorption can occur during treatment with these agents, particularly proton pump inhibitors, although the likelihood of developing clinically significant deficiency over time is unknown. There has been one reported case of vitamin B12 deficiency with megaloblastic anemia in a patient who received omeprazole at a minimum of 40 mg/day for 4 years. Also uncertain is whether acid reduction or suppression can affect the absorption of vitamin B12 ingested in the form of oral supplements such as cyanocobalamin. Non-oral routes of administration (e.g., parenteral, intranasal, sublingual) are generally preferred in the treatment of B12 deficiency-related anemia.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

folic acid food

Applies to: Bonisara (cyanocobalamin / folic acid / pyridoxine / strontium gluconate)

MONITOR: Ethanol may increase folic acid elimination and folic acid absorption is decreased in chronic alcoholics. Excessive alcohol consumption may lead to folate deficiency.

MANAGEMENT: Monitoring of patient response to folic acid supplementation if they also consume alcohol regularly may be recommended.

Moderate

esomeprazole food

Applies to: esomeprazole / naproxen

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may interfere with the absorption of esomeprazole. The manufacturer reports that the area under the concentration-time curve for esomeprazole following a single 40 mg dose was 33% to 53% lower when administered after food intake as opposed to during fasting conditions.

MANAGEMENT: Esomeprazole should be taken at least one hour before meals. When administered to patients receiving continuous enteral nutrition, some experts recommend that the tube feeding should be interrupted for at least 1 hour before and 1 hour after the dose of esomeprazole is given.

Moderate

strontium gluconate food

Applies to: Bonisara (cyanocobalamin / folic acid / pyridoxine / strontium gluconate)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Concomitant administration of strontium with food or milk products may decrease its bioavailability by 60% to 70%.

MANAGEMENT: Strontium salts should be taken at least two hours before or two hours after food or milk products, and preferably at bedtime.

Moderate

naproxen food

Applies to: esomeprazole / naproxen

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.

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.
