Interactions between your drugs
argatroban cangrelor
Applies to: argatroban, cangrelor
MONITOR CLOSELY: Concomitant use of cangrelor with anticoagulants, thrombolytic agents, or other antiplatelet agents may theoretically increase the risk of bleeding. According to the manufacturer, cangrelor has been formally studied with unfractionated heparin and aspirin in healthy study subjects with no evidence of a pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic interaction. In clinical trials, cangrelor has been coadministered with bivalirudin, low molecular weight heparin, clopidogrel, prasugrel, and ticagrelor without clinically detectable interactions.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is recommended if cangrelor must be used in patients treated with other agents that alter hemostasis. Patients should be monitored for potentially increased bleeding complications.
