Interactions between your drugs

Major

magnesium salicylate dolutegravir

Applies to: CMT (choline salicylate / magnesium salicylate) and Triumeq (abacavir / dolutegravir / lamivudine)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Coadministration with medications containing polyvalent cations such as aluminum, calcium, iron, or magnesium may decrease the oral bioavailability of dolutegravir. The mechanism of interaction has not been established. In 16 study subjects, administration of a single 50 mg dose of dolutegravir simultaneously with an antacid (Maalox) decreased dolutegravir peak plasma concentration (Cmax), systemic exposure (AUC) and trough plasma concentration (Cmin; 24 hours post-dose) by 72%, 74% and 74%, respectively, compared to administration without the antacid. When the antacid was administered 2 hours after dolutegravir, the Cmax, AUC and Cmin of dolutegravir decreased by just 18%, 26% and 30%, respectively. Administration of single-dose dolutegravir simultaneously with a multivitamin (One-A-Day) decreased the Cmax, AUC and Cmin of dolutegravir by 35%, 33% and 32%, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Dolutegravir should be administered 2 hours before or 6 hours after medications containing polyvalent cations such as antacids, laxatives, or mineral supplements.

Moderate

choline salicylate magnesium salicylate

Applies to: CMT (choline salicylate / magnesium salicylate) and CMT (choline salicylate / magnesium salicylate)

GENERALLY AVOID: Concomitant use of more than one salicylate at a time may increase the potential for gastrointestinal adverse effects (e.g., inflammation, pain, bleeding, ulceration) and bruising or bleeding.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of more than one salicylate at a time should generally be avoided. Patients treated with a salicylate should be advised to take it with food and to immediately report signs and symptoms of GI ulceration and bleeding such as severe abdominal pain, dizziness, lightheadedness, and the appearance of black, tarry stools.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

magnesium salicylate food

Applies to: CMT (choline salicylate / magnesium salicylate)

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.

Minor

dolutegravir food

Applies to: Triumeq (abacavir / dolutegravir / lamivudine)

Food increases the extent of absorption and slows the rate of absorption of dolutegravir. When administered with a low-, moderate- or high-fat meal, dolutegravir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) increased by 46%, 52% and 67%, systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 33%, 41% and 66%, and time to reach Cmax (Tmax) increased from 2 hours to 3, 4 and 5 hours, respectively, compared to administration under fasted conditions. Dolutegravir may be taken with or without food.

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.
