Interactions between your drugs

Minor

pyridoxine butabarbital

Applies to: cyanocobalamin / folic acid / pyridoxine / strontium gluconate and Urelief Plus (butabarbital / hyoscyamine / phenazopyridine)

One small study has suggested that pyridoxine may decrease serum levels of phenobarbital. The mechanism is unknown. Phenobarbital is the only barbiturate specifically implicated in this interaction. However, other barbiturates may behave in a similar fashion. Close observation for altered barbiturate effects is indicated if these drugs must be used together.

Drug and food interactions

Major

butabarbital food

Applies to: Urelief Plus (butabarbital / hyoscyamine / phenazopyridine)

GENERALLY AVOID: Concurrent acute use of barbiturates and ethanol may result in additive CNS effects, including impaired coordination, sedation, and death. Tolerance of these agents may occur with chronic use. The mechanism is related to inhibition of microsomal enzymes acutely and induction of hepatic microsomal enzymes chronically.

MANAGEMENT: The combination of ethanol and barbiturates should be avoided.

Moderate

folic acid food

Applies to: 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

strontium gluconate food

Applies to: 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

hyoscyamine food

Applies to: Urelief Plus (butabarbital / hyoscyamine / phenazopyridine)

GENERALLY AVOID: Use of anticholinergic agents with alcohol may result in sufficient impairment of attention so as to render driving and operating machinery more hazardous. In addition, the potential for abuse may be increased with the combination. The mechanism of interaction is not established but may involve additive depressant effects on the central nervous system. No effect of oral propantheline or atropine on blood alcohol levels was observed in healthy volunteers when administered before ingestion of a standard ethanol load. However, one study found impairment of attention in subjects given atropine 0.5 mg or glycopyrrolate 1 mg in combination with alcohol.

MANAGEMENT: Alcohol should generally be avoided during therapy with anticholinergic agents. Patients should be counseled to avoid activities requiring mental alertness until they know how these agents affect them.

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.
