Interactions between your drugs

Major

codeine carisoprodol

Applies to: Soma Compound with Codeine (aspirin / carisoprodol / codeine) and Soma Compound with Codeine (aspirin / carisoprodol / codeine)

GENERALLY AVOID: Concomitant use of opioids with benzodiazepines or other central nervous system (CNS) depressants (e.g., nonbenzodiazepine sedatives/hypnotics, anxiolytics, muscle relaxants, general anesthetics, antipsychotics, other opioids, alcohol) may result in profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma, and death. The risk of hypotension may also be increased with some CNS depressants (e.g., alcohol, benzodiazepines, phenothiazines).

MANAGEMENT: The use of opioids in conjunction with benzodiazepines or other CNS depressants should generally be avoided unless alternative treatment options are inadequate. If coadministration is necessary, the dosage and duration of each drug should be limited to the minimum required to achieve desired clinical effect, with cautious titration and dosage adjustments when needed. Patients should be monitored closely for signs and symptoms of respiratory depression and sedation, and advised to avoid driving or operating hazardous machinery until they know how these medications affect them. Cough medications containing opioids (e.g., codeine, hydrocodone) should not be prescribed to patients using benzodiazepines or other CNS depressants including alcohol. For patients who have been receiving extended therapy with both an opioid and a benzodiazepine and require discontinuation of either medication, a gradual tapering of dose is advised, since abrupt withdrawal may lead to withdrawal symptoms. Severe cases of benzodiazepine withdrawal, primarily in patients who have received excessive doses over a prolonged period, may result in numbness and tingling of extremities, hypersensitivity to light and noise, hallucinations, and epileptic seizures.

codeine tirzepatide

Applies to: Soma Compound with Codeine (aspirin / carisoprodol / codeine) and tirzepatide

MONITOR: Tirzepatide can delay gastric emptying, which may impact the absorption of concomitantly administered oral medications and cause a decrease in the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and a delay in the time to reach peak plasma concentration (Tmax). The impact of tirzepatide on gastric emptying has been reported to be dose- and time-dependent, with the greatest effect observed after a single 5 mg dose but diminished after subsequent doses. When acetaminophen was administered following a single 5 mg dose of tirzepatide, acetaminophen Cmax was decreased by 50% and its median Tmax delayed by 1 hour. However, no significant impact on acetaminophen Cmax and Tmax was observed after 4 consecutive weekly doses of tirzepatide (5 mg/5 mg/8 mg/10 mg), and the overall exposure (AUC) of acetaminophen was unaffected. Tirzepatide at lower doses of 0.5 mg and 1.5 mg also had minimal effects on acetaminophen exposure.

MANAGEMENT: Although no specific dosage adjustment of concomitant medications is generally recommended based on available data, potential clinical impact on some oral medications cannot be ruled out, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic index or low bioavailability, those that depend on threshold concentrations for efficacy (e.g., antibiotics), and those that require rapid gastrointestinal absorption (e.g., hypnotics, analgesics). Oral medications with a narrow therapeutic index may require additional monitoring when used in combination with tirzepatide, especially at initiation of tirzepatide and following any dose adjustments. The risk of delayed effects due to delayed gastric emptying should also be considered for any oral medications that require a rapid onset of action.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

carisoprodol food

Applies to: Soma Compound with Codeine (aspirin / carisoprodol / codeine)

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.

tirzepatide food

Applies to: tirzepatide

MONITOR: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and dual GLP-1 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor agonists can delay gastric emptying, which may impact the absorption of concomitantly administered oral medications. Mild to moderate decreases in plasma concentrations of coadministered drugs have been demonstrated in pharmacokinetic studies for some GLP-1 receptor agonists (e.g., exenatide, lixisenatide), but not others. According to the prescribing information, liraglutide did not affect the absorption of several orally administered drugs to any clinically significant extent, including acetaminophen, atorvastatin, digoxin, griseofulvin, lisinopril, and an oral contraceptive containing ethinyl estradiol-levonorgestrel. Likewise, no clinically relevant effect on absorption was observed for concomitantly administered oral drugs studied with albiglutide (digoxin, ethinyl estradiol-norethindrone, simvastatin, warfarin), dulaglutide (acetaminophen, atorvastatin, digoxin, ethinyl estradiol-norelgestromin, lisinopril, metformin, metoprolol, sitagliptin, warfarin), or semaglutide (atorvastatin, digoxin, ethinyl estradiol-levonorgestrel, metformin, warfarin). The impact of dual GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist tirzepatide on gastric emptying was reported to be dose- and time-dependent, with the greatest effect observed after a single 5 mg dose but diminished after subsequent doses. When acetaminophen was administered following a single 5 mg dose of tirzepatide, acetaminophen peak plasma concentration (Cmax) was decreased by 50% and its median time to peak plasma concentration (Tmax) delayed by 1 hour. However, no significant impact on acetaminophen Cmax and Tmax was observed after 4 consecutive weekly doses of tirzepatide (5 mg/5 mg/8 mg/10 mg), and the overall exposure (AUC) of acetaminophen was unaffected. Tirzepatide at lower doses of 0.5 mg and 1.5 mg also had minimal effects on acetaminophen exposure.

MANAGEMENT: Although no specific dosage adjustment of concomitant medications is generally recommended based on available data, potential clinical impact on some oral medications cannot be ruled out, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic index or low bioavailability, those that depend on threshold concentrations for efficacy (e.g., antibiotics), and those that require rapid gastrointestinal absorption (e.g., hypnotics, analgesics). Pharmacologic response to concomitantly administered oral medications should be monitored more closely following initiation, dose adjustment, or discontinuation of a GLP-1 receptor agonist or a dual GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist.

codeine food

Applies to: Soma Compound with Codeine (aspirin / carisoprodol / codeine)

GENERALLY AVOID: Ethanol may potentiate the central nervous system (CNS) depressant effects of opioid analgesics. Concomitant use may result in additive CNS depression and impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills. In more severe cases, hypotension, respiratory depression, profound sedation, coma, or even death may occur.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of opioid analgesics with ethanol should be avoided.

aspirin food

Applies to: Soma Compound with Codeine (aspirin / carisoprodol / codeine)

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.

aspirin food

Applies to: Soma Compound with Codeine (aspirin / carisoprodol / codeine)

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.
