Interactions between your drugs

Major

dicloxacillin fecal microbiota spores, live

Applies to: dicloxacillin and fecal microbiota spores, live

GENERALLY AVOID: Antibiotics may interfere with the therapeutic effects of oral fecal microbiota, which contains live bacterial spores. The mechanism may be related to the antibiotic inactivating the bacterial spores or reducing bacterial replication. However, the clinical significance of this interaction has not been established.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of oral fecal microbiota spores with antibiotics should generally be avoided. The manufacturer of the oral formulation of fecal microbiota recommends that treatment commence two to four days after completing antibiotic treatment for Clostridium difficile infection.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

dicloxacillin food

Applies to: dicloxacillin

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Certain penicillins may exhibit reduced gastrointestinal absorption in the presence of food. The therapeutic effect of the antimicrobial may be reduced.

MANAGEMENT: The interacting penicillin should be administered one hour before or two hours after meals. Penicillin V and amoxicillin are not affected by food and may be given without regard to meals.

Moderate

fecal microbiota spores, live food

Applies to: fecal microbiota spores, live

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: There are no data regarding the effects of concurrent administration of oral fecal microbiota spores with food.

MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer of the oral formulation of fecal microbiota recommends that patients should have no food or drink except for a small amount of water for at least 8 hours prior to the first dose of fecal microbiota spores. The second and third doses of fecal microbiota spores should be taken on an empty stomach prior to the first meal of the day.

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.
