Drug Interaction Report

Using baricitinib together with triamcinolone may increase the risk of serious and potentially fatal infections. In some cases, combining medications that affect the bone marrow or immune system can also increase the risk of various types of cancer over time. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may already be aware of the risks, but has determined that this is the best course of treatment for you and has taken appropriate precautions and is monitoring you closely for any potential complications. Contact your doctor immediately if you develop signs and symptoms of infection such as fever, chills, diarrhea, sore throat, muscle aches, shortness of breath, blood in phlegm, weight loss, red or inflamed skin, body sores, and pain or burning during urination. In addition, using baricitinib together with triamcinolone may have additive adverse effects and increase the risk of diverticular disease or gastrointestinal bleeding or perforation. Contact your doctor if you experience severe abdominal pain, fever, nausea, or vomiting. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring to safely use both medications. 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.
