aspirin salicylamide

Applies to: Saleto (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine / salicylamide) and Saleto (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine / salicylamide)

MONITOR: The combined use of low-dose or high-dose aspirin with other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may increase the potential for serious gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity, including inflammation, bleeding, ulceration, and perforation. Aspirin at anti-inflammatory dosages or higher may also decrease the plasma concentrations of many NSAIDs. The decreases have ranged from none or small (piroxicam, meloxicam, naproxen, tolmetin) to substantial (flurbiprofen, ibuprofen). However, the therapeutic response does not appear to be affected. Investigators theorize that aspirin may displace NSAIDs from plasma protein binding sites, resulting in increased concentration of unbound, or free, drug available for clearance. The increase in NSAID free fraction, and possibly some contributory anti-inflammatory effect from aspirin, may account for the lack of overall effect on therapeutic response.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if aspirin, particularly at anti-inflammatory dosages, is used with other NSAIDs. Concomitant administration of NSAIDs is considered contraindicated or not recommended with aspirin at analgesic/anti-inflammatory dosages by many NSAID manufacturers. During concomitant therapy, patients should be advised to take the medications with food and to immediately report signs and symptoms of GI ulceration and bleeding such as abdominal pain, bloating, sudden dizziness or lightheadedness, nausea, vomiting, hematemesis, anorexia, and melena.

aspirin caffeine

Applies to: Saleto (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine / salicylamide) and Saleto (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine / salicylamide)

One study has reported that coadministration of caffeine and aspirin lead to a 25% increase in the rate of appearance and 17% increase in maximum concentration of salicylate in the plasma. A significantly higher area under the plasma concentration time curve of salicylate was also reported when both drugs were administered together. The exact mechanism of this interaction has not been specified. Physicians and patients should be aware that coadministration of aspirin and caffeine may lead to higher salicylate levels faster.

Drug and food interactions

Major

acetaminophen food

Applies to: Saleto (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine / salicylamide)

GENERALLY AVOID: Chronic, excessive consumption of alcohol may increase the risk of acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity, which has included rare cases of fatal hepatitis and frank hepatic failure requiring liver transplantation. The proposed mechanism is induction of hepatic microsomal enzymes during chronic alcohol use, which may result in accelerated metabolism of acetaminophen and increased production of potentially hepatotoxic metabolites.

MANAGEMENT: In general, chronic alcoholics should avoid regular or excessive use of acetaminophen. Alternative analgesic/antipyretic therapy may be appropriate in patients who consume three or more alcoholic drinks per day. However, if acetaminophen is used, these patients should be cautioned not to exceed the recommended dosage (maximum 4 g/day in adults and children 12 years of age or older).

Moderate

aspirin food

Applies to: Saleto (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine / salicylamide)

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.

caffeine food

Applies to: Saleto (acetaminophen / aspirin / caffeine / salicylamide)

The effect of grapefruit juice on the pharmacologic activity of caffeine is controversial. One report suggests that grapefruit juice increases the effect of caffeine. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of cytochrome P-450 metabolism of caffeine. However, a well-conducted pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic study did not demonstrate this effect. The clinical significance of this potential interaction is unknown.

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.
