Drug and food interactions

Moderate

pramlintide food

Applies to: SymlinPen 60 (pramlintide)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Pramlintide slows gastric emptying and may delay the absorption of concomitantly administered oral medications. In a pharmacokinetic study of 24 patients with type 2 diabetes, coadministration with pramlintide (120 mcg) decreased the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of acetaminophen (1000 mg) by 29% and increased its time to peak plasma concentration (Tmax) based on the time of acetaminophen administration relative to pramlintide injection. Pramlintide significantly increased acetaminophen Tmax (range 48 to 72 minutes) when acetaminophen was administered simultaneously with or up to 2 hours following pramlintide injection, but it had negligible effect when acetaminophen was administered 1 to 2 hours before pramlintide injection.

MANAGEMENT: When rapid onset of a concomitantly administered oral medication is critical to its effectiveness, the medication should be administered at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after pramlintide injection.

ibuprofen food

Applies to: ibuprofen

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.
