Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

trandolapril dexmethylphenidate

Applies to: trandolapril and dexmethylphenidate / serdexmethylphenidate

MONITOR: Methylphenidate and other derivative amphetamines may decrease the therapeutic effects of antihypertensive drugs or agents with hypotensive properties. According to serdexmethylphenidate label information, CNS stimulants cause a mean increase in blood pressure of approximately 2 to 4 mmHg and a mean increase in heart rate of approximately 3 to 6 beats per minute. With some individuals having larger increases.

MANAGEMENT: Caution and monitoring of blood pressure is recommended if methylphenidate, dexmethylphenidate or serdexmethylphenidate are administered with antihypertensives agents such as: potassium-sparing and thiazide diuretics, calcium channel blockers, angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), beta blockers or centrally acting alpha-2 receptor agonists. The dosage of the antihypertensive drug should be adjusted as needed.

dexmethylphenidate serdexmethylphenidate

Applies to: dexmethylphenidate / serdexmethylphenidate and dexmethylphenidate / serdexmethylphenidate

MONITOR: Coadministration of two or more sympathomimetic agents may increase the risk of adverse effects such as nervousness, irritability, and increased heart rate. Central nervous system (CNS) stimulants, particularly amphetamines, can potentiate the adrenergic response to vasopressors and other sympathomimetic agents. Additive increases in blood pressure and heart rate may occur due to enhanced peripheral sympathetic activity.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if two or more sympathomimetic agents are coadministered. Pulse and blood pressure should be closely monitored.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

trandolapril food

Applies to: trandolapril

GENERALLY AVOID: Moderate-to-high dietary intake of potassium can cause hyperkalemia in some patients who are using angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. In some cases, affected patients were using a potassium-rich salt substitute. ACE inhibitors can promote hyperkalemia through inhibition of the renin-aldosterone-angiotensin (RAA) system.

MANAGEMENT: It is recommended that patients who are taking ACE inhibitors be advised to avoid moderately high or high potassium dietary intake. Particular attention should be paid to the potassium content of salt substitutes.

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.
