Drug and food interactions
cefpodoxime food
Applies to: Vantin (cefpodoxime)
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of cefpodoxime proxetil tablets. Following a 200 mg dose taken with food, the extent of absorption (mean AUC) was 21% to 33% higher and the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) 19% higher than under fasting conditions. Time to peak concentration (Tmax) was not significantly different between fed and fasted states. On the contrary, when a 200 mg dose of the suspension was taken with food, the mean AUC and Cmax were not significantly different than those under fasting conditions, although the rate of absorption was slower with food (48% increase in Tmax ).
MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, cefpodoxime proxetil tablets should be administered with or immediately after a meal.

traMADol food
Applies to: tramadol
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.
