MONITOR: Phenothiazines, tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs), and some antipsychotic (neuroleptic) agents may potentiate the blood pressure lowering capabilities of other drugs with hypotensive effects due to their peripheral alpha-1 adrenergic blocking activity. Orthostatic hypotension and syncope associated with vasodilation may occur, particularly during initial dosing and/or parenteral administration of the phenothiazine, TCA, or neuroleptic. The severity of this interaction may be affected by the agent's affinity for the alpha-1 adrenoceptor. One in vitro study demonstrated an affinity for the alpha-1 adrenoceptor for some of these medications that was similar to, or greater than, those of alpha blocker medications used to treat hypertension. Examples of drugs evaluated in this study with a high affinity included amitriptyline, clomipramine, chlorpromazine, clozapine, doxepin, flupenthixol, lurasidone, nortriptyline, perphenazine, paliperidone, quetiapine, risperidone, sertindole, and ziprasidone. On the other hand, examples of those with lower affinities included aripiprazole, lofepramine, protriptyline, sulpiride, and amisulpride.

MANAGEMENT: Close clinical monitoring for development of hypotension is recommended if phenothiazines, tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs), or certain antipsychotic (neuroleptic) agents are used in patients receiving antihypertensive medications or vasodilators. A lower starting dosage and slower titration of the phenothiazine, TCA, or neuroleptic may be appropriate, especially in the elderly. It may also be advisable to consider using a phenothiazine, TCA, or neuroleptic medication with a lower affinity for the alpha-1 adrenoceptor when possible. Patients should be counseled to avoid rising abruptly from a sitting or recumbent position and to notify their healthcare provider if they experience dizziness, lightheadedness, syncope, orthostasis, or tachycardia. Patients should also avoid driving or operating hazardous machinery until they know how the medications affect them.

Drug and food interactions

Major

lurasidone food

Applies to: lurasidone

Avoid consuming grapefruit or grapefruit juice during treatment with lurasidone, as it may increase blood levels of the medication. This can increase the risk of side effects such as Parkinson-like symptoms, abnormal muscle movements, seizures, high blood sugar, diabetes, high cholesterol, weight gain, sex hormone irregularities, and heat-related disorders such as heat intolerance or heat stroke. In addition, you may be more likely to experience side effects associated with low blood pressure such as dizziness, lightheadedness, headache, flushing, fainting, and heart palpitations. You should also avoid the use of alcohol while being treated with lurasidone. Alcohol can increase the nervous system and blood-pressure lowering effects of lurasidone. You may experience increased drowsiness, dizziness, difficulty concentrating, and impairment in thinking and judgment. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions or concerns. Lurasidone should be taken with food consisting of at least 350 calories. Avoid driving or operating hazardous machinery until you know how the medication affects you, and use caution when getting up from a sitting or lying position.

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.
