Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

choline salicylate sodium iodide I-131

Applies to: Tricosal (choline salicylate / magnesium salicylate) and i3odine Max (sodium iodide-i-131)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Certain drugs may affect the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and/or diagnostic results of radioiodides.

MANAGEMENT: Antithyroid agents such as carbimazole or propylthiouracil should generally be withheld for 1 week before administration of sodium iodide I-131 or I-123, and for a few days afterward. Salicylates, steroids, anticoagulants, antihistamines, antiparasitics, penicillins, sulfonamides, tolbutamide, thiopental, and nitroprusside should generally be withheld for 1 week. Amiodarone, lithium, and benzodiazepines should be withheld for at least 4 weeks.

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

sodium iodide I-131 food

Applies to: i3odine Max (sodium iodide-i-131)

MONITOR: Excessive intake of dietary iodine (e.g., iodised salt) may interfere with adequate uptake of radioiodide by the thyroid .

MANAGEMENT: A diet low in iodine is recommended before initiating therapy with sodium iodide I-131 or I-123.

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.

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.
