- oxycodone
Interactions between your drugs
oxyCODONE mavacamten
Applies to: oxycodone and Camzyos (mavacamten)
Mavacamten may reduce the blood levels of oxyCODONE, which may make the medication less effective in treating your pain. Additionally, if you have been receiving treatment with oxyCODONE, adding mavacamten may cause you to experience unpleasant withdrawal symptoms such as watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, yawning, excessive sweating, goose bumps, fever, chills, flushing, restlessness, irritability, anxiety, depression, pupil dilation, tremor, rapid heart beat, body aches, involuntary twitching and kicking, abdominal cramping, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and weight loss. On the other hand, if you have been receiving both medications, discontinuing mavacamten may increase the blood levels of oxyCODONE, which could lead to an overdose. Using mavacamten with oxyCODONE may also increase the risk of an irregular heart rhythm that may be serious and potentially life-threatening, although it is a relatively rare side effect. You should seek immediate medical attention if you experience sudden dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, shortness of breath, or heart palpitations during treatment with these medications, whether together or alone. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring to safely use both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
Drug and food interactions

Do not use alcohol or medications that contain alcohol while you are receiving treatment with oxyCODONE. This may increase nervous system side effects such as drowsiness, dizziness, lightheadedness, difficulty concentrating, and impairment in thinking and judgment. In severe cases, low blood pressure, respiratory distress, fainting, coma, or even death may occur. You may also want to avoid or limit the consumption of grapefruit and grapefruit juice, which can significantly increase the blood levels of oxycodone in some people. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have questions on how to take this or other medications you are prescribed. Do not use more than the recommended dose of oxyCODONE, and avoid activities requiring mental alertness such as driving or operating hazardous machinery until you know how the medication affects you. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medication without first talking to your doctor.

Applies to: Camzyos (mavacamten)
Grapefruit juice may increase the blood levels of mavacamten and increase the risk of heart failure, a condition where the heart is unable to pump blood adequately to meet the body's needs. Your risk may be further increased if you develop a serious infection or irregular heartbeat during treatment with mavacamten. You should avoid the consumption of grapefruit and grapefruit juice while taking this medication. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. You should seek medical attention if you experience signs and symptoms of heart failure such as shortness of breath, chest pain, fatigue, swelling in your legs, palpitations, or rapid weight gain.
