Edit list (add/remove drugs)

Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

procainamide trospium

Applies to: Pronestyl-SR (procainamide) and trospium

MONITOR: Theoretically, coadministration of trospium chloride with other drugs that are eliminated by active tubular secretion may result in increased plasma concentrations of trospium and/or the coadministered drug(s). The mechanism is competitive inhibition of renal excretion. Drugs that are thought to undergo active tubular secretion include acyclovir/valacyclovir, cidofovir, cimetidine, digoxin, flecainide, ganciclovir/valganciclovir, metformin, midodrine, morphine, pancuronium, procainamide, quinidine, ranitidine, tenofovir, triamterene, and vancomycin.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving trospium chloride in combination with other drugs that undergo active tubular secretion should be monitored for excessive pharmacologic effects of one or both drugs, and the dosages of the drugs adjusted if necessary.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

trospium food

Applies to: trospium

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may reduce the oral absorption and bioavailability of trospium chloride. According to the product labeling, administration of trospium chloride with a high fat meal reduced the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) by 70% to 80% compared to administration while fasting.

MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, trospium chloride should be administered at least 1 hour before meals or on an empty stomach.

Minor

procainamide food

Applies to: Pronestyl-SR (procainamide)

Ethanol may increase the acetylation of procainamide. Subtherapeutic plasma levels of procainamide may result in some patients. Because the acetylated metabolite of procainamide also possesses antiarrhythmic properties, the clinical effects are unclear.

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.
