Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

torsemide fenofibrate

Applies to: Demadex IV (torsemide) and Fenoglide (fenofibrate)

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 2C9 may increase the plasma concentrations of torsemide. The interaction has not been evaluated in pharmacokinetic studies; however, torsemide has been shown to undergo metabolism by CYP450 2C9.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when torsemide is prescribed with CYP450 2C9 inhibitors. Patients should be monitored for potentially increased adverse effects such as dehydration, hypotension, electrolyte imbalances, hyperglycemia, tinnitus, and hearing loss.

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.
