Interactions between Erleada and Magnesium hydroxide

The apalutamide in Erleada has a moderate potential interaction with Diabetes Mellitus.

Ischemic cardiovascular events, including events leading to death, occurred in patients receiving apalutamide. It is recommended to monitor for signs and symptoms of ischemic heart disease and to consider discontinuation of treatment for Grade 3 and 4 events. Care should be exercised when prescribing this agent in patients at risk of an ischemic cardiovascular event, such as in those patients with hypertension, diabetes, or dyslipidemia.

Magnesium hydroxide has a major potential interaction with Gastrointestinal Obstruction.

The use of laxatives is contraindicated in patients with intestinal obstruction disorders. Patients with intestinal obstruction disorders may need their underlying condition treated to correct the constipation. Some laxatives require reduction in the colon to their active form to be effective which may be a problem in patients with intestinal obstruction.

The apalutamide in Erleada has a moderate potential interaction with High Blood Pressure.

Ischemic cardiovascular events, including events leading to death, occurred in patients receiving apalutamide. It is recommended to monitor for signs and symptoms of ischemic heart disease and to consider discontinuation of treatment for Grade 3 and 4 events. Care should be exercised when prescribing this agent in patients at risk of an ischemic cardiovascular event, such as in those patients with hypertension, diabetes, or dyslipidemia.

The apalutamide in Erleada has a moderate potential interaction with High Cholesterol.

Ischemic cardiovascular events, including events leading to death, occurred in patients receiving apalutamide. It is recommended to monitor for signs and symptoms of ischemic heart disease and to consider discontinuation of treatment for Grade 3 and 4 events. Care should be exercised when prescribing this agent in patients at risk of an ischemic cardiovascular event, such as in those patients with hypertension, diabetes, or dyslipidemia.

Magnesium hydroxide has a major potential interaction with Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

The use of laxatives is contraindicated in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Patients with inflammatory bowel disease may experience colonic perforation with use of stimulant laxatives.

The apalutamide in Erleada has a moderate potential interaction with Ischemic Heart Disease.

Ischemic cardiovascular events, including events leading to death, occurred in patients receiving apalutamide. It is recommended to monitor for signs and symptoms of ischemic heart disease and to consider discontinuation of treatment for Grade 3 and 4 events. Care should be exercised when prescribing this agent in patients at risk of an ischemic cardiovascular event, such as in those patients with hypertension, diabetes, or dyslipidemia.

The apalutamide in Erleada has a moderate potential interaction with Liver Disease.

No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of apalutamide or its major metabolite were observed in patients with mild (Child-Pugh A) to moderate (Child-Pugh B) hepatic impairment. The effect on patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C) on apalutamide pharmacokinetics is unknown. Close monitoring of liver function is recommended in these patients.

The apalutamide in Erleada has a moderate potential interaction with Metabolic Bone Disorders.

Falls and fractures have occurred in patients receiving apalutamide. Care should be exercised when apalutamide is used in patients at risk for fractures or falls and in those patients with osteoporosis. It is recommended to evaluate patients for fracture and fall risk and to consider the use of bone-targeted agents as medically necessary.

Magnesium hydroxide has a major potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Magnesium is eliminated by the kidney. The serum concentration of magnesium is increased in patients with renal impairment. Magnesium toxicity includes CNS depression, muscular paralysis, respiratory depression, hypotension and prolonged cardiac conduction time. Disappearance of the patellar reflex is a useful clinical sign of magnesium intoxication. Therapy with magnesium should be administered cautiously and dosages should be modified in patients with compromised renal function. Clinical monitoring of serum magnesium levels is recommended.

The apalutamide in Erleada has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of apalutamide or its major metabolite were observed in patients with mild to moderate renal impairment. The effect on patients with severe renal impairment or end-stage renal disease on apalutamide pharmacokinetics is unknown. Close monitoring of renal function is recommended in these patients.

The apalutamide in Erleada has a moderate potential interaction with Seizures.

The use of apalutamide may cause seizures. It is recommended to discontinue this agent in patients who develop a seizure while on treatment. Care should be exercised when using apalutamide in patients at risk or with a history of seizure disorder.
