Edit list (add/remove drugs)

Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

atropine macimorelin

Applies to: Lomanate (atropine / diphenoxylate) and macimorelin

GENERALLY AVOID: Drugs that may blunt the growth hormone response to macimorelin such as muscarinic antagonists (e.g., atropine), anti-thyroid agents (e.g., propylthiouracil), and growth hormone products may impact the accuracy of the macimorelin diagnostic test.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of drugs that can blunt the response to macimorelin should generally be avoided. A sufficient washout period following discontinuation of these drugs is recommended prior to macimorelin administration. The prescribing information recommends discontinuing growth hormone products for at least one week before administering the macimorelin diagnostic test.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

diphenoxylate food

Applies to: Lomanate (atropine / diphenoxylate)

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.

Moderate

macimorelin food

Applies to: macimorelin

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food reduces the oral bioavailability of macimorelin. According to the product labeling, administration with a liquid meal decreased macimorelin peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 55% and 49%, respectively, compared to administration under fasting conditions (i.e., for at least 8 hours).

MANAGEMENT: Macimorelin should be administered after fasting for at least 8 hours.

Moderate

atropine food

Applies to: Lomanate (atropine / diphenoxylate)

GENERALLY AVOID: Use of anticholinergic agents with alcohol may result in sufficient impairment of attention so as to render driving and operating machinery more hazardous. In addition, the potential for abuse may be increased with the combination. The mechanism of interaction is not established but may involve additive depressant effects on the central nervous system. No effect of oral propantheline or atropine on blood alcohol levels was observed in healthy volunteers when administered before ingestion of a standard ethanol load. However, one study found impairment of attention in subjects given atropine 0.5 mg or glycopyrrolate 1 mg in combination with alcohol.

MANAGEMENT: Alcohol should generally be avoided during therapy with anticholinergic agents. Patients should be counseled to avoid activities requiring mental alertness until they know how these agents affect them.

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.
