Drug and food interactions
penicillAMINE food
Applies to: penicillamine
You may experience reduced absorption of penicillAMINE in the presence of food. The effectiveness of the antibiotic may be reduced. PenicillAMINE should be administered one hour before or two hours after meals and at least one hour apart from any other drug, food, or milk. This will make it easier for your body to absorb the medication.
ferric citrate food
Applies to: ferric citrate
Food may reduce the absorption and blood levels of ferric citrate. In addition, some oral medications can also interfere with ferric citrate absorption into the bloodstream, which may make the medication less effective in treating your condition. Likewise, ferric citrate may interfere with the absorption of other orally administered medications. You should take ferric citrate on an empty stomach at least one hour before or two hours after a meal. 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. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have questions about how to take this or other medications you are prescribed. 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.
