Drug and food interactions

Moderate

sucralfate food

Applies to: Carafate (sucralfate)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: The administration of sucralfate with enteral nutrition may result in precipitation and the formation of bezoars that may obstruct feeding tubes. The proposed mechanism is the formation of an insoluble aluminum-protein complex between the aluminum in the sucralfate and the protein in the enteral feeding. In addition, sucralfate may not become activated due to the alkaline pH of enteral nutrition products.

MANAGEMENT: Some experts recommend separating the sucralfate doses from enteral feedings by at least 1 hour. Alternatively, consideration may be given to proton pump inhibitors or H2 antagonists.

Moderate

fecal microbiota spores, live food

Applies to: Vowst (fecal microbiota spores, live)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: There are no data regarding the effects of concurrent administration of oral fecal microbiota spores with food.

MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer of the oral formulation of fecal microbiota recommends that patients should have no food or drink except for a small amount of water for at least 8 hours prior to the first dose of fecal microbiota spores. The second and third doses of fecal microbiota spores should be taken on an empty stomach prior to the first meal of the day.
