Monitor closely
Coadministration with P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors may increase the plasma concentrations of morphine and its risk of adverse effects, including hypotension, respiratory and CNS depression, profound sedation, coma, and death. The proposed mechanism may involve inhibition of the intestinal P-gp efflux transporter, resulting in enhanced oral bioavailability of morphine, a P-gp substrate. The interaction may be more significant for orally administered morphine. According to some authorities, the concomitant use of a P-gp inhibitor with oral morphine may increase the systemic exposure of morphine by approximately 2-fold. However, in a pharmacokinetic study involving 12 healthy subjects, itraconazole (200 mg daily for 4 days), a strong P-gp inhibitor, increased the morphine (0.3 mg/kg as a single oral dose) peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 28% and 22%, respectively. Plasma concentrations of intravenously administered morphine appear less affected. In a crossover study involving 14 healthy volunteers, intravenous administration of P-gp inhibitor cyclosporine followed by an intravenous infusion of morphine 0.1 mg/kg led to a minimal increase of morphine AUC to 100 ng/mL*h compared to 85 ng/mL*h when administered after control (no infusion). In the same study, cyclosporine appeared to prolong morphine-induced miosis.
Management
Caution is recommended whenever morphine, particularly orally administered morphine, is used concomitantly with a P-gp inhibitor. Close clinical and laboratory monitoring should be considered whenever a P-gp inhibitor is added to or withdrawn from therapy, and the morphine dosage adjusted as necessary. Patients should be monitored closely for signs and symptoms of respiratory depression and sedation that may be greater than otherwise expected. In addition, patients should be advised to avoid driving or operating hazardous machinery until they know how these medications affect them.

Food/lifestyle interactions
Major food/lifestyle interactions

morphine Food/Lifestyle
Applies to: Doloral Sirop (morphine)
Generally avoid
Alcohol may potentiate the central nervous system (CNS) depressant effects of opioid analgesics including morphine and diamorphine. Concomitant use may result in additive CNS depression and impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills. In more severe cases, hypotension, respiratory depression, profound sedation, coma, or even death may occur.
Generally avoid
Consumption of alcohol while taking some sustained-release formulations of morphine may cause rapid release of the drug, resulting in high systemic levels of morphine that may be potentially lethal. Alcohol apparently can disrupt the release mechanism of some sustained-release formulations. The interaction was observed in in vitro studies using a 24-hour morphine formulation (Avinza 30 mg capsule, available in the U.S. from Ligand Pharmaceuticals). When the capsule was mixed with 900 mL of buffer solutions containing ethanol 20% and 40%, the dose of morphine that was released was alcohol concentration-dependent, leading to a more rapid release of morphine. Although the clinical relevance of this finding is unknown, 'dose-dumping' into the bloodstream is conceivable.
Management
Until more information is available, patients taking sustained-release formulations of morphine should not consume alcohol or use medications that contain alcohol. In general, potent narcotics such as morphine or diamorphine should not be combined with alcohol.

Moderate food/lifestyle interactions
Moderate:
palbociclib Food/Lifestyle
Applies to: palbociclib
Generally avoid
Grapefruit and/or grapefruit juice may increase the systemic exposure to palbociclib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Increased exposure to palbociclib may increase the risk of adverse effects such as infections, neutropenia, leukopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomatitis, alopecia, asthenia, peripheral neuropathy, and epistaxis.
Adjust dosing interval
Food may enhance the oral bioavailability of palbociclib capsules and reduce the intersubject variability of palbociclib exposure. According to the product labeling, absorption and exposure of palbociclib from its oral capsule formulation were very low in approximately 13% of the population when taken in the fasted state. Food intake increased the palbociclib exposure in this small subset of the population but did not alter exposure in the rest of the population to a clinically relevant extent. Compared to palbociclib capsules given under overnight fasted conditions, the population average palbociclib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 38% and 21%, respectively, when given with high-fat, high-calorie food (approximately 800 to 1000 calories; 150, 250, and 500 to 600 calories from protein, carbohydrate and fat, respectively); by 27% and 12%, respectively, when given with low-fat, low-calorie food (approximately 400 to 500 calories; 120, 250, and 28 to 35 calories from protein, carbohydrate and fat, respectively); and by 24% and 13%, respectively, when given with moderate-fat, standard calorie food (approximately 500 to 700 calories; 75 to 105, 250 to 350 and 175 to 245 calories from protein, carbohydrate and fat, respectively) one hour before and two hours after palbociclib capsule dosing.
Management
Patients should avoid consumption of grapefruit or grapefruit juice while on treatment with palbociclib. To avoid variability in drug absorption between doses, palbociclib capsules should be taken with food. Palbociclib tablet formulations may be taken with or without food.

Disease interactions
39 potential interactions Applies to: 32 conditions, including Constipation, Seizures, Arrhythmia, Hypotension, and Fever.
Acute Alcohol Intoxication
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Acute Alcohol Intoxication.
The use of opiate agonists is contraindicated in patients with acute alcohol intoxication exhibiting depressed vital signs. The central nervous system depressant effects of opiate agonists may be additive with those of alcohol. Severe respiratory depression and death may occur. Therapy with opiate agonists should be administered cautiously in patients who might be prone to acute alcohol intake.
Adrenal Insufficiency
Moderate:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a moderate potential interaction with Adrenal Insufficiency.
Patients with Addison's disease may have increased risk of respiratory depression and prolonged CNS depression associated with the use of narcotic (opioid) analgesic agents. Conversely, these agents may cause or potentiate adrenal insufficiency. Therapy with opioids should be administered cautiously and initiated at reduced dosages in patients with adrenocortical insufficiency. Subsequent doses should be titrated based on individual response rather than a fixed dosing schedule.
Alcoholism
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Alcoholism.
Opiate agonists have the potential to cause dependence and abuse. Tolerance as well as physical and psychological dependence can develop after prolonged use. Abrupt cessation, reduction in dosage, or administration of an opiate antagonist such as naloxone may precipitate withdrawal symptoms. In patients who have developed tolerance to an opiate agonist, overdosage can still produce respiratory depression and death, and cross-tolerance usually will occur with other agents in the class. Addiction-prone individuals, such as those with a history of alcohol or substance abuse, should be under careful surveillance or medical supervision when treated with opiate agonists. It may be prudent to refrain from dispensing large quantities of medication to these patients. After prolonged use or if dependency is suspected, withdrawal of opiate therapy should be undertaken gradually using a dosage-tapering schedule.
Altered Consciousness
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Altered Consciousness.
Opiate agonists may produce significant central nervous system and respiratory depression of varying duration, particularly when given in high dosages and/or by rapid intravenous administration. Apnea may result from decreased respiratory drive as well as increased airway resistance, and rigidity of respiratory muscles may occur during rapid IV administration or when these agents are used in the induction of anesthesia. At therapeutic analgesic dosages, the respiratory effects are usually not clinically important except in patients with preexisting pulmonary impairment. Therapy with opiate agonists should be avoided or administered with extreme caution and initiated at reduced dosages in patients with severe CNS depression; sleep apnea; hypoxia, anoxia, or hypercapnia; upper airway obstruction; chronic pulmonary insufficiency; a limited ventilatory reserve; or other respiratory disorders. In the presence of excessive respiratory secretions, the use of opiate agonists may also be problematic because they decrease ciliary activity and reduce the cough reflex. Caution is also advised in patients who may be at increased risk for respiratory depression, such as comatose patients or those with head injury, intracranial lesions, or intracranial hypertension. Clinical monitoring of pulmonary function is recommended, and equipment for resuscitation should be immediately available if parenteral or neuraxial routes are used. Naloxone may be administered to reverse clinically significant respiratory depression, which may be prolonged depending on the opioid agent, cumulative dose, and route of administration.
Arrhythmia
Moderate:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a moderate potential interaction with Arrhythmia.
Opiate agonists have cholinergic activity. Large doses and/or rapid intravenous administration may produce bradycardia and arrhythmias via stimulation of medullary vagal nuclei. Therapy with opiate agonists should be administered cautiously in patients with a history of arrhythmias. Clinical monitoring of cardiovascular status is recommended during therapy.
Asphyxia
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Asphyxia.
Opiate agonists may produce significant central nervous system and respiratory depression of varying duration, particularly when given in high dosages and/or by rapid intravenous administration. Apnea may result from decreased respiratory drive as well as increased airway resistance, and rigidity of respiratory muscles may occur during rapid IV administration or when these agents are used in the induction of anesthesia. At therapeutic analgesic dosages, the respiratory effects are usually not clinically important except in patients with preexisting pulmonary impairment. Therapy with opiate agonists should be avoided or administered with extreme caution and initiated at reduced dosages in patients with severe CNS depression; sleep apnea; hypoxia, anoxia, or hypercapnia; upper airway obstruction; chronic pulmonary insufficiency; a limited ventilatory reserve; or other respiratory disorders. In the presence of excessive respiratory secretions, the use of opiate agonists may also be problematic because they decrease ciliary activity and reduce the cough reflex. Caution is also advised in patients who may be at increased risk for respiratory depression, such as comatose patients or those with head injury, intracranial lesions, or intracranial hypertension. Clinical monitoring of pulmonary function is recommended, and equipment for resuscitation should be immediately available if parenteral or neuraxial routes are used. Naloxone may be administered to reverse clinically significant respiratory depression, which may be prolonged depending on the opioid agent, cumulative dose, and route of administration.
Biliary Obstruction
Moderate:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a moderate potential interaction with Biliary Obstruction.
Opioid agonists may cause spasm of the sphincter of Oddi, which may increase biliary tract pressure. Other opioid-induced effects may include a reduction in biliary and pancreatic secretions and transient elevations in serum amylase. Patients with biliary tract disease (including acute pancreatitis) should be regularly evaluated for worsening symptoms. Therapy with opioids should be administered cautiously in patients with biliary tract disease, gallbladder disease, or acute pancreatitis.
Brain Tumor
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Brain Tumor.
Opiate agonists may produce significant central nervous system and respiratory depression of varying duration, particularly when given in high dosages and/or by rapid intravenous administration. Apnea may result from decreased respiratory drive as well as increased airway resistance, and rigidity of respiratory muscles may occur during rapid IV administration or when these agents are used in the induction of anesthesia. At therapeutic analgesic dosages, the respiratory effects are usually not clinically important except in patients with preexisting pulmonary impairment. Therapy with opiate agonists should be avoided or administered with extreme caution and initiated at reduced dosages in patients with severe CNS depression; sleep apnea; hypoxia, anoxia, or hypercapnia; upper airway obstruction; chronic pulmonary insufficiency; a limited ventilatory reserve; or other respiratory disorders.

Naloxone may be administered to reverse clinically significant respiratory depression, which may be prolonged depending on the opioid agent, cumulative dose, and route of administration.
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Brain Tumor.
The hypoventilation associated with administration of opiate agonists, particularly by the intravenous route, can induce cerebral hypoxia and vasodilatation with resultant increase in intracranial pressure. Opiate agonists should not be used in patients with suspected or known head injury or increased intracranial pressure. Also, clinicians treating such patients should be aware that opiate agonists may interfere with the evaluation of CNS function, especially with respect to consciousness levels, respiratory status, and pupillary changes.
Cerebral Vascular Disorder
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Cerebral Vascular Disorder.
The hypoventilation associated with administration of opiate agonists, particularly by the intravenous route, can induce cerebral hypoxia and vasodilatation with resultant increase in intracranial pressure. Opiate agonists should not be used in patients with suspected or known head injury or increased intracranial pressure. Also, clinicians treating such patients should be aware that opiate agonists may interfere with the evaluation of CNS function, especially with respect to consciousness levels, respiratory status, and pupillary changes.

Naloxone may be administered to reverse clinically significant respiratory depression, which may be prolonged depending on the opioid agent, cumulative dose, and route of administration.
Constipation
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Constipation.
Narcotic (opioid) analgesic agents increase smooth muscle tone in the gastrointestinal tract and decrease peristalsis, which can lead to elevated intraluminal pressure, spasm, and constipation following prolonged use. In patients with severe or acute inflammatory bowel disease, the decrease in colonic motility may induce toxic megacolon. Therapy with opioids should be administered cautiously in patients with gastrointestinal obstruction, constipation, inflammatory bowel disease, or recent gastrointestinal tract surgery. Gastrointestinal effects appear to be the most pronounced with morphine.
Dehydration
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Dehydration.
Opiate agonists can induce vasodilation and significant hypotension, particularly when given in high dosages and/or by rapid intravenous administration. Opiate analgesics cause vasodilatation that may exacerbate hypotension and hypoperfusion and, therefore, are contraindicated in circulatory shock. At therapeutic analgesic dosages, ambulatory patients are more likely to experience dizziness and hypotension than patients who are confined to bed. However, orthostatic hypotension may occur in supine patients upon rising. Therapy with opiate agonists should be administered cautiously and initiated at reduced dosages in patients with hypovolemia, or a predisposition to hypotension. When given by intramuscular or subcutaneous administration, clinicians should also be aware that impaired perfusion in these patients may prevent complete absorption of the drug. With repeated injections, an excessive amount may be absorbed suddenly if normal circulation is reestablished.
Drug Dependence
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Drug Dependence.
Opiate agonists have the potential to cause dependence and abuse. Tolerance as well as physical and psychological dependence can develop after prolonged use. Abrupt cessation, reduction in dosage, or administration of an opiate antagonist such as naloxone may precipitate withdrawal symptoms. In patients who have developed tolerance to an opiate agonist, overdosage can still produce respiratory depression and death, and cross-tolerance usually will occur with other agents in the class.

It may be prudent to refrain from dispensing large quantities of medication to these patients. After prolonged use or if dependency is suspected, withdrawal of opiate therapy should be undertaken gradually using a dosage-tapering schedule.
Fever
Moderate:
palbociclib
Palbociclib has a moderate potential interaction with Fever.
The use of palbociclib may cause neutropenia, including febrile neutropenia and neutropenic sepsis. It is recommended to monitor complete blood counts prior to starting treatment and at the beginning of each therapy cycle with palbociclib, as well as on Day 15 of the first 2 cycles, and as clinically indicated thereafter. Dose interruption, dose reduction, or delay in starting treatment cycles is recommended for patients who develop Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia. Care and close monitoring is recommended, in particular for any episodes of fever.
Gallbladder Disease
Moderate:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a moderate potential interaction with Gallbladder Disease.
Opioid agonists may cause spasm of the sphincter of Oddi, which may increase biliary tract pressure. Other opioid-induced effects may include a reduction in biliary and pancreatic secretions and transient elevations in serum amylase.

Infectious Gastroenteritis
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Infectious Gastroenteritis.
Narcotic (opioid) analgesic agents may prolong and/or worsen diarrhea associated with organisms that invade the intestinal mucosa, such as toxigenic Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Shigella, and pseudomembranous colitis due to broad-spectrum antibiotics. These agents decrease gastrointestinal motility, which may delay the excretion of infective gastroenteric organisms and/or their toxins. Other symptoms and complications such as fever, shedding of organisms, and extraintestinal illness may also be increased or prolonged. Therapy with opioids should be avoided or administered cautiously in patients with infectious diarrhea, particularly that due to pseudomembranous enterocolitis or enterotoxin-producing bacteria or if accompanied by high fever, pus, or blood in the stool.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
Narcotic (opioid) analgesic agents increase smooth muscle tone in the gastrointestinal tract and decrease peristalsis, which can lead to elevated intraluminal pressure, spasm, and constipation following prolonged use. In patients with severe or acute inflammatory bowel disease, the decrease in colonic motility may induce toxic megacolon. Therapy with opioids should be administered cautiously in patients with gastrointestinal obstruction, constipation, inflammatory bowel disease, or recent gastrointestinal tract surgery. Gastrointestinal effects appear to be the most pronounced with morphine.
Interstitial Lung Disease
Moderate:
palbociclib
Palbociclib has a moderate potential interaction with Interstitial Lung Disease.
The use of certain multikinase inhibitors has been associated with pulmonary toxicity. Serious cases of interstitial lung disease (ILD), including fatal cases and interstitial pneumonitis or pulmonary fibrosis have been reported. Caution is recommended when using these agents in patients with a history of interstitial pneumonitis or pulmonary fibrosis or those patients presenting with acute onset of new or progressive unexplained pulmonary symptoms such as dyspnea, cough, and fever pending diagnostic evaluation. If ILD is confirmed, these agents should be permanently discontinued and appropriate measures should be instituted. Treatment should be immediately withheld in patients diagnosed with ILD/pneumonitis and permanently discontinued if no other potential causes of ILD/pneumonitis have been identified.
Intestinal Anastomoses
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Intestinal Anastomoses.
Narcotic (opioid) analgesic agents increase smooth muscle tone in the gastrointestinal tract and decrease peristalsis, which can lead to elevated intraluminal pressure, spasm, and constipation following prolonged use. In patients with severe or acute inflammatory bowel disease, the decrease in colonic motility may induce toxic megacolon. Therapy with opioids should be administered cautiously in patients with gastrointestinal obstruction, constipation, inflammatory bowel disease, or recent gastrointestinal tract surgery. Gastrointestinal effects appear to be the most pronounced with morphine.
Liver Disease
Moderate:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a moderate potential interaction with Liver Disease.
Narcotic (opioid) analgesic agents are extensively metabolized by the liver, and several of them (e.g., codeine, hydrocodone, meperidine, methadone, morphine, propoxyphene) have active metabolites that are further converted to inactive substances. The serum concentrations of these agents and their metabolites may be increased and the half-lives prolonged in patients with impaired hepatic function. Therapy with opioids should be administered cautiously and initiated at reduced dosages in patients with liver disease. Subsequent doses should be titrated based on individual response rather than a fixed dosing schedule.
Moderate:
palbociclib
Palbociclib has a moderate potential interaction with Liver Disease.
Based on a population pharmacokinetic analysis with palbociclib mild hepatic impairment had no effect on the exposure of palbociclib. Close monitoring is recommended when using this agent in patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment as the pharmacokinetics of palbociclib have not been studied in these patients. Dose modification of concomitant medications may be needed based of hepatic impairment.
Neutropenia
Moderate:
palbociclib
Palbociclib has a moderate potential interaction with Neutropenia.
The use of palbociclib may cause neutropenia, including febrile neutropenia and neutropenic sepsis. It is recommended to monitor complete blood counts prior to starting treatment and at the beginning of each therapy cycle with palbociclib, as well as on Day 15 of the first 2 cycles, and as clinically indicated thereafter. Dose interruption, dose reduction, or delay in starting treatment cycles is recommended for patients who develop Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia. Care and close monitoring is recommended, in particular for any episodes of fever.
Pancreatitis
Moderate:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a moderate potential interaction with Pancreatitis.
Opioid agonists may cause spasm of the sphincter of Oddi, which may increase biliary tract pressure. Other opioid-induced effects may include a reduction in biliary and pancreatic secretions and transient elevations in serum amylase. Patients with biliary tract disease (including acute pancreatitis) should be regularly evaluated for worsening symptoms. Therapy with opioids should be administered cautiously in patients with biliary tract disease, gallbladder disease, or acute pancreatitis.
Prematurity/Underweight in Infancy
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Prematurity/Underweight in Infancy.
The use of narcotic (opioid) analgesic agents is contraindicated in premature infants. These agents may cross the immature blood-brain barrier to a greater extent than in adults, resulting in disproportionate respiratory depression.
Premenopausal Anovulation
Moderate:
palbociclib
Palbociclib has a moderate potential interaction with Premenopausal Anovulation.
Pre/perimenopausal women treated with the combination palbociclib plus fulvestrant therapy should be treated with luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonists according to current clinical practice standards. Care and close monitoring is recommended.
Pulmonary Impairment
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Pulmonary Impairment.
Opiate agonists may produce significant central nervous system and respiratory depression of varying duration, particularly when given in high dosages and/or by rapid intravenous administration. Apnea may result from decreased respiratory drive as well as increased airway resistance, and rigidity of respiratory muscles may occur during rapid IV administration or when these agents are used in the induction of anesthesia. At therapeutic analgesic dosages, the respiratory effects are usually not clinically important except in patients with preexisting pulmonary impairment. Therapy with opiate agonists should be avoided or administered with extreme caution and initiated at reduced dosages in patients with severe CNS depression; sleep apnea; hypoxia, anoxia, or hypercapnia; upper airway obstruction; chronic pulmonary insufficiency; a limited ventilatory reserve; or other respiratory disorders. In the presence of excessive respiratory secretions, the use of opiate agonists may also be problematic because they decrease ciliary activity and reduce the cough reflex. Caution is also advised in patients who may be at increased risk for respiratory depression, such as comatose patients or those with head injury, intracranial lesions, or intracranial hypertension. Clinical monitoring of pulmonary function is recommended, and equipment for resuscitation should be immediately available if parenteral or neuraxial routes are used. Naloxone may be administered to reverse clinically significant respiratory depression, which may be prolonged depending on the opioid agent, cumulative dose, and route of administration.
Moderate:
palbociclib
Palbociclib has a moderate potential interaction with Pulmonary Impairment.
The use of certain multikinase inhibitors has been associated with pulmonary toxicity. Serious cases of interstitial lung disease (ILD), including fatal cases and interstitial pneumonitis or pulmonary fibrosis have been reported. Caution is recommended when using these agents in patients with a history of interstitial pneumonitis or pulmonary fibrosis or those patients presenting with acute onset of new or progressive unexplained pulmonary symptoms such as dyspnea, cough, and fever pending diagnostic evaluation. If ILD is confirmed, these agents should be permanently discontinued and appropriate measures should be instituted. Treatment should be immediately withheld in patients diagnosed with ILD/pneumonitis and permanently discontinued if no other potential causes of ILD/pneumonitis have been identified.
Renal Dysfunction
Moderate:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.
Although narcotic (opioid) analgesic agents are generally metabolized by the liver, renal impairment can alter the elimination of these agents and their metabolites (some of which are pharmacologically active), resulting in drug accumulation and increased risk of toxicity. Therapy with opioids should be administered cautiously and initiated at reduced dosages in patients with significantly impaired renal function. Subsequent doses should be titrated based on individual response rather than a fixed dosing schedule.
Moderate:
palbociclib
Palbociclib has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.
Based on a population pharmacokinetic analysis with palbociclib mild and moderate renal impairment had no effect on the exposure of palbociclib. Close monitoring is recommended when using this agent in patients with severe renal impairment as the pharmacokinetics of palbociclib in these patients have not been studied.
Respiratory Arrest
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Respiratory Arrest.
Opiate agonists may produce significant central nervous system and respiratory depression of varying duration, particularly when given in high dosages and/or by rapid intravenous administration. Apnea may result from decreased respiratory drive as well as increased airway resistance, and rigidity of respiratory muscles may occur during rapid IV administration or when these agents are used in the induction of anesthesia. At therapeutic analgesic dosages, the respiratory effects are usually not clinically important except in patients with preexisting pulmonary impairment. Therapy with opiate agonists should be avoided or administered with extreme caution and initiated at reduced dosages in patients with severe CNS depression; sleep apnea; hypoxia, anoxia, or hypercapnia; upper airway obstruction; chronic pulmonary insufficiency; a limited ventilatory reserve; or other respiratory disorders. In the presence of excessive respiratory secretions, the use of opiate agonists may also be problematic because they decrease ciliary activity and reduce the cough reflex. Caution is also advised in patients who may be at increased risk for respiratory depression, such as comatose patients or those with head injury, intracranial lesions, or intracranial hypertension. Clinical monitoring of pulmonary function is recommended, and equipment for resuscitation should be immediately available if parenteral or neuraxial routes are used. Naloxone may be administered to reverse clinically significant respiratory depression, which may be prolonged depending on the opioid agent, cumulative dose, and route of administration.
Seizures
Moderate:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a moderate potential interaction with Seizures.
Narcotic (opioid) analgesic agents may increase the frequency of seizures in patients with seizure disorders, may increase the risk of seizures occurring in other clinical settings associated with seizures, and, at higher dosages, have been reported to induce seizures in patients without history of seizures. Patients with history of seizure disorders should be regularly evaluated for worsened seizure control during therapy. Prolonged meperidine use may increase the risk of toxicity (e.g., seizures) from the accumulation of the active metabolite (normeperidine).
Shock
Major:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a major potential interaction with Shock.
Opiate agonists can induce vasodilation and significant hypotension, particularly when given in high dosages and/or by rapid intravenous administration. Opiate analgesics cause vasodilatation that may exacerbate hypotension and hypoperfusion and, therefore, are contraindicated in circulatory shock. At therapeutic analgesic dosages, ambulatory patients are more likely to experience dizziness and hypotension than patients who are confined to bed. However, orthostatic hypotension may occur in supine patients upon rising. Therapy with opiate agonists should be administered cautiously and initiated at reduced dosages in patients with hypovolemia, or a predisposition to hypotension. When given by intramuscular or subcutaneous administration, clinicians should also be aware that impaired perfusion in these patients may prevent complete absorption of the drug. With repeated injections, an excessive amount may be absorbed suddenly if normal circulation is reestablished.
Urinary Retention
Moderate:
Doloral Sirop
The morphine in Doloral Sirop has a moderate potential interaction with Urinary Retention.
Narcotic (opioid) analgesic agents may inhibit the urinary voiding reflex and increase the tone of the vesical sphincter in the bladder. Acute urinary retention requiring catheterization may occur, particularly in patients with prostatic hypertrophy or urethral stricture and in older adult patients. These agents may also decrease urine production via direct effects on the kidney and central stimulation of the release of vasopressin. Therapy with opioids should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to urinary retention and/or oliguria. The effects on smooth muscle tone appear to be the most pronounced with morphine.
