This report displays the potential drug interactions for the following 2 drugs:
- dasatinib
- Prepopik (citric acid/magnesium oxide/sodium picosulfate)
Interactions between your drugs
magnesium oxide dasatinib
Applies to: Prepopik (citric acid/magnesium oxide/sodium picosulfate) and dasatinib
Taking the dasatinib and magnesium oxide doses too close together may interfere with the absorption of dasatinib and reduce its effectiveness. To prevent or minimize the interaction, dasatinib and magnesium oxide dosing should be separated by at least two hours. Contact your doctor if your condition worsens. 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.
sodium picosulfate dasatinib
Applies to: Prepopik (citric acid/magnesium oxide/sodium picosulfate) and dasatinib
Dasatinib can cause an irregular heart rhythm that may be serious and potentially life-threatening, although it is a relatively rare side effect. The risk is increased if you have low blood levels of magnesium or potassium, which can occur with bowel cleansing preparations or excessive use of medications that have a laxative effect. You should use sodium picosulfate exactly as prescribed by your doctor, and drink plenty of clear liquids before, during, and after the cleansing process to avoid becoming dehydrated. Your doctor may be able to recommend specific fluids you can drink before starting sodium picosulfate to help maintain your electrolyte levels. He/she may also want to monitor your electrolyte levels and/or heart rhythm. You should seek immediate medical attention if you develop sudden dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, shortness of breath, or heart palpitations during treatment with these medications. In addition, you should let your doctor know if you experience signs and symptoms of low electrolyte levels such as weakness, tiredness, drowsiness, dizziness, confusion, tingling, numbness, muscle pain, cramps, nausea, or vomiting. 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
dasatinib food
Applies to: dasatinib
Do not consume grapefruit or grapefruit juice during treatment with dasatinib. Grapefruit juice can significantly increase the blood levels and effects of dasatinib, which may result in excessive slowing of heart rate or other conduction disturbances and it may affect your bone marrow function, resulting in low numbers of different types of blood cells. You may be more likely to develop anemia, bleeding problems, or infections due to low blood cell counts. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. You should seek immediate medical attention if you develop sudden dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, shortness of breath, heart palpitations, paleness, fatigue, unusual bruising or bleeding, fever, chills, diarrhea, sore throat, muscle aches, blood in phlegm, weight loss, pain or burning during urination, red or inflamed skin, or body sores during treatment with dasatinib. 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.
sodium picosulfate food
Applies to: Prepopik (citric acid/magnesium oxide/sodium picosulfate)
Oral medications may not be properly absorbed when they are taken within one hour before starting sodium picosulfate for bowel cleansing. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist to see if you should adjust the dosing schedule of your other medications before you begin bowel cleansing treatment. 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.
