Edit list (add/remove drugs)

Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

choline salicylate magnesium salicylate

Applies to: Tricosal (choline salicylate / magnesium salicylate) and Tricosal (choline salicylate / magnesium salicylate)

GENERALLY AVOID: Concomitant use of more than one salicylate at a time may increase the potential for gastrointestinal adverse effects (e.g., inflammation, pain, bleeding, ulceration) and bruising or bleeding.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of more than one salicylate at a time should generally be avoided. Patients treated with a salicylate should be advised to take it with food and to immediately report signs and symptoms of GI ulceration and bleeding such as severe abdominal pain, dizziness, lightheadedness, and the appearance of black, tarry stools.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

magnesium salicylate food

Applies to: Tricosal (choline salicylate / magnesium salicylate)

GENERALLY AVOID: The concurrent use of aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and ethanol may lead to gastrointestinal (GI) blood loss. The mechanism may be due to a combined local effect as well as inhibition of prostaglandins leading to decreased integrity of the GI lining.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should be counseled on this potential interaction and advised to refrain from alcohol consumption while taking aspirin or NSAIDs.

Minor

tenofovir food

Applies to: emtricitabine / nelfinavir / tenofovir

Food enhances the oral absorption and bioavailability of tenofovir, the active entity of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. According to the product labeling, administration of the drug following a high-fat meal increased the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of tenofovir by approximately 14% and 40%, respectively, compared to administration in the fasting state. However, administration with a light meal did not significantly affect the pharmacokinetics of tenofovir compared to administration in the fasting state. Food delays the time to reach tenofovir Cmax by approximately 1 hour. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate may be administered without regard to meals.

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.
