This report displays the potential drug interactions for the following 2 drugs:
- Haldol Decanoate (haloperidol)
- Ravicti (glycerol phenylbutyrate)
Interactions between your drugs
haloperidol glycerol phenylbutyrate
Applies to: Haldol Decanoate (haloperidol) and Ravicti (glycerol phenylbutyrate)
MONITOR: Drugs that can increase plasma ammonia levels such as corticosteroids, haloperidol, or the anticonvulsants carbamazepine, topiramate, and phenobarbital may interfere with the therapeutic effects of phenylbutyrate therapy in the management of urea cycle disorders. Corticosteroids can cause the breakdown of body protein, which may lead to increased ammonia levels. The use of haloperidol has been associated with hyperammonemia in a young child with citrullinemia, an inherited disorder of ammonia excretion. The mechanism for haloperidol, carbamazepine, topiramate, and phenobarbital has not been established.
MANAGEMENT: Plasma ammonia levels should be closely monitored when corticosteroids, haloperidol, carbamazepine, topiramate, or phenobarbital are used in patients with urea cycle disorders receiving phenylbutyrate therapy.

GENERALLY AVOID: Alcohol may potentiate some of the pharmacologic effects of CNS-active agents. Use in combination may result in additive central nervous system depression and/or impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills.
MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving CNS-active agents should be warned of this interaction and advised to avoid or limit consumption of alcohol. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring complete mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how these agents affect them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities.
