Drug Interactions between Daypro Alta and Urin D/S
This report displays the potential drug interactions for the following 2 drugs:
- Daypro Alta (oxaprozin)
- Urin D/S (hyoscyamine/methenamine/methylene blue/phenyl salicylate/sodium biphosphate)
Interactions between your drugs
oxaprozin sodium biphosphate
Applies to: Daypro Alta (oxaprozin) and Urin D / S (hyoscyamine / methenamine / methylene blue / phenyl salicylate / sodium biphosphate)
MONITOR CLOSELY: The following interaction applies only to products containing sodium biphosphate that are used for bowel cleansing. It does not apply to products containing sodium biphosphate that are used for other, non-laxative related purposes.
Coadministration with agents that affect renal function or perfusion such as diuretics, ACE inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may increase the risk of acute phosphate nephropathy associated with the use of bowel-cleansing phosphate solutions. The risk and/or severity of fluid and electrolyte disturbances may also be increased, which can lead to serious adverse events including cardiac arrhythmias, seizures, and renal impairment. Acute phosphate nephropathy is a rare adverse event that presents as acute renal failure with minimal proteinuria and a bland urine sediment. Renal biopsy findings are consistent with nephrocalcinosis and include acute and/or chronic renal tubular injury, calcium-phosphate crystal deposition in the distal tubules and collecting ducts, and no other pattern of histological injury. The risk of acute phosphate nephropathy stems from the large phosphate load, fluid shifts, and decreased intravascular volume, which can be exacerbated in the presence of medications that affect renal perfusion or function. In reported cases, acute renal failure was typically diagnosed within two to five months of colonoscopy. These cases often resulted in permanent impairment of renal function, some requiring long-term dialysis.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when bowel-cleansing phosphate preparations are prescribed in patients treated with agents that affect renal function or perfusion, particularly if they are frail or elderly. Bowel-cleansing phosphate preparations should not be used in patients who have impaired renal function or perfusion, dehydration, or uncorrected electrolyte abnormalities. In patients at risk for acute phosphate nephropathy, baseline and postprocedure labs including serum electrolytes, calcium, phosphate, BUN, and creatinine should be performed. Patients should be advised not to exceed the recommended dosage of their bowel-cleansing preparation and to drink sufficient quantities of clear fluids during before, during, and after bowel cleansing. Limited data suggest that administration of an electrolyte rehydration solution may attenuate the electrolyte abnormalities and hypovolemia. Hospitalization and intravenous fluid hydration may be appropriate for frail or elderly patients who may be unable to drink an adequate volume of fluid.

Drug and food interactions
sodium biphosphate food
Applies to: Urin D / S (hyoscyamine / methenamine / methylene blue / phenyl salicylate / sodium biphosphate)
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Bowel cleansing products can increase the gastrointestinal transit rate. Oral medications administered within one hour of the start of administration of the bowel cleansing solution may be flushed from the gastrointestinal tract and not properly absorbed.
MANAGEMENT: Patients should be advised that absorption of oral medications may be impaired during bowel cleansing treatment. Oral medications (e.g., anticonvulsants, oral contraceptives, antidiabetic agents, antibiotics) should not be administered during and within one hour of starting bowel cleansing treatment whenever possible. However, if concomitant use cannot be avoided, monitoring for reduced therapeutic effects may be advisable.

oxaprozin food
Applies to: Daypro Alta (oxaprozin)
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.

hyoscyamine food
Applies to: Urin D / S (hyoscyamine / methenamine / methylene blue / phenyl salicylate / sodium biphosphate)
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.

Therapeutic duplication warnings
Therapeutic duplication is the use of more than one medicine from the same drug category or therapeutic class to treat the same condition. This can be intentional in cases where drugs with similar actions are used together for demonstrated therapeutic benefit. It can also be unintentional in cases where a patient has been treated by more than one doctor, or had prescriptions filled at more than one pharmacy, and can have potentially adverse consequences.
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories
Therapeutic duplication
The recommended maximum number of medicines in the 'nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories' category to be taken concurrently is usually one. Your list includes two medicines belonging to the 'nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories' category:
- Daypro Alta (oxaprozin)
- Urin D/S (hyoscyamine/methenamine/methylene blue/phenyl salicylate/sodium biphosphate)
Note: In certain circumstances, the benefits of taking this combination of drugs may outweigh any risks. Always consult your healthcare provider before making changes to your medications or dosage.
