Drug and food interactions
finerenone food
Applies to: finerenone
Finerenone may be taken with or without food. However, you should avoid grapefruit and grapefruit juice during treatment with this medication. Grapefruit juice may significantly increase the blood levels and effects of finerenone. This can increase the risk of developing hyperkalemia, or high levels of potassium in the blood, which in severe cases can lead to kidney failure, muscle paralysis, irregular heart rhythm, and cardiac arrest. You may be more likely to develop hyperkalemia during treatment with finerenone if you are elderly, dehydrated, or have kidney disease, diabetes, or advanced heart failure. You should also avoid potassium-containing salt substitutes or over-the-counter potassium supplements during treatment with finerenone unless otherwise directed by your doctor. Seek medical attention if you experience nausea, vomiting, weakness, confusion, tingling of the hands and feet, feelings of heaviness in the legs, a weak pulse, or a slow or irregular heartbeat, as these may be symptoms of hyperkalemia. 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.
dipyridamole food
Applies to: Aggrenox (aspirin / dipyridamole)
Caffeine may interfere with the effects of dipyridamole in dilating the arteries. You should avoid caffeine-containing products for at least 24 hours before an imaging procedure involving dipyridamole given by injection. However, no special precaution is necessary if you are taking dipyridamole orally for maintenance.
aspirin food
Applies to: Aggrenox (aspirin / dipyridamole)
Ask your doctor before using aspirin together with ethanol. Do not drink alcohol while taking aspirin. Alcohol can increase your risk of stomach bleeding caused by aspirin. Call your doctor at once if you have symptoms of bleeding in your stomach or intestines. This includes black, bloody, or tarry stools, or coughing up blood or vomit that looks like coffee grounds. 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.
dipyridamole food
Applies to: Aggrenox (aspirin / dipyridamole)
Ask your doctor before using dipyridamole together with caffeine. Using these medications together can decrease the effects of dipyridamole. It is recommended that caffeine including caffeine be avoided for 12 to 24 hours before dipyridamole administration. You may need a dose adjustment or special test if you 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.
