Gastrointestinal Obstruction

Major:

fesoterodine

Fesoterodine has a major potential interaction with Gastrointestinal Obstruction.

The use of fesoterodine is contraindicated in patients with gastric retention. Fesoterodine is a competitive muscarinic receptor antagonist and exerts direct antispasmodic effects on smooth muscles. Caution is advised even when using this agent in patients with decreased gastrointestinal motility.

Glaucoma, Narrow Angle

Major:

fesoterodine

Fesoterodine has a major potential interaction with Glaucoma, Narrow Angle.

The use of fesoterodine is contraindicated in patients with uncontrolled narrow-angle glaucoma. Fesoterodine is a competitive muscarinic receptor antagonist. Its use can result in increased intraocular pressure and loss of accommodation. Caution is advised even when using this agent in patients being treated for narrow-angle glaucoma.

Heart Block

Moderate:

dyclonine / menthol topical

The dyclonine topical in dyclonine / menthol topical has a moderate potential interaction with Heart Block.

Dyclonine is absorbed rapidly through intact skin and mucosal membranes following topical administration. Prolonged exposure, large doses, frequent applications and/or use on compromised skin or mucosa can produce systemic toxicity. Cardiovascular adverse effects include depression of myocardium, hypotension, bradycardia, and cardiac arrest. Therapy with dyclonine topical should be administered cautiously in patients with shock, sinus bradyarrhythmia, or severe heart block. The recommended dosage should not be exceeded.

Liver Disease

Moderate:

fesoterodine

Fesoterodine has a moderate potential interaction with Liver Disease.

The use of fesoterodine has not been studied in patients with severe hepatic impairment and therefore is not recommended for use in this patient population. No dose adjustment is recommended in patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment. Use caution when using this agent in patients with severe hepatic impairment.

Myasthenia Gravis

Moderate:

fesoterodine

Fesoterodine has a moderate potential interaction with Myasthenia Gravis.

Fesoterodine is a competitive muscarinic receptor antagonist. Fesoterodine should be used with caution in patients with myasthenia gravis, a disease characterized by decreased cholinergic activity at the neuromuscular junction.

Renal Dysfunction

fesoterodine

Fesoterodine has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Doses of fesoterodine fumarate greater than 4 mg are not recommended in patients with severe renal impairment. No dose adjustment is recommended in patients with mild or moderate renal impairment.

The dyclonine topical in dyclonine / menthol topical has a moderate potential interaction with Shock.

Dyclonine is absorbed rapidly through intact skin and mucosal membranes following topical administration. Prolonged exposure, large doses, frequent applications and/or use on compromised skin or mucosa can produce systemic toxicity. Cardiovascular adverse effects include depression of myocardium, hypotension, bradycardia, and cardiac arrest. Therapy with dyclonine topical should be administered cautiously in patients with shock, sinus bradyarrhythmia, or severe heart block. The recommended dosage should not be exceeded.

Urinary Retention

Major:

fesoterodine

Fesoterodine has a major potential interaction with Urinary Retention.

The use of fesoterodine is contraindicated in patients with urinary retention. Fesoterodine is a competitive muscarinic receptor antagonist and exerts direct antispasmodic effects on smooth muscles. Caution is advised even when using this agent in patients with clinically significant bladder outlet obstruction because of the risk of urinary retention.
