This report displays the potential drug interactions for the following 2 drugs:
- calcium carbonate/magnesium hydroxide/simethicone
- Sine-Aid IB (ibuprofen/pseudoephedrine)
Interactions between your drugs
ibuprofen magnesium hydroxide
Applies to: Sine-Aid IB (ibuprofen / pseudoephedrine) and calcium carbonate / magnesium hydroxide / simethicone
One study has suggested that coadministration of magnesium hydroxide and ibuprofen may significantly increase the area under the plasma concentration-time curve for ibuprofen. This increase may be clinically beneficial in circumstances in which a rapid response to ibuprofen is desirable.

Drug and food interactions
calcium carbonate food
Applies to: calcium carbonate / magnesium hydroxide / simethicone
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration with food may increase the absorption of calcium. However, foods high in oxalic acid (spinach or rhubarb), or phytic acid (bran and whole grains) may decrease calcium absorption.
MANAGEMENT: Calcium may be administered with food to increase absorption. Consider withholding calcium administration for at least 2 hours before or after consuming foods high in oxalic acid or phytic acid.

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.

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.
