Interactions between your drugs
pentamidine respiratory syncytial virus immune globulin
Applies to: pentamidine, RespiGam (respiratory syncytial virus immune globulin)
Respiratory syncytial virus immune globulin may cause kidney problems, and combining it with other medications that can also affect the kidney such as pentamidine may increase that risk. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. Contact your doctor if you experience symptoms that may suggest kidney damage such as nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, increased or decreased urination, sudden weight gain or weight loss, fluid retention, swelling, shortness of breath, muscle cramps, tiredness, weakness, dizziness, confusion, and irregular heart rhythm. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
