Interactions between your drugs
bismuth subsalicylate eravacycline
Applies to: Bismarex (bismuth subsalicylate), eravacycline
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Concomitant administration of bismuth-containing medications may impair the absorption of oral tetracyclines. The interaction has been studied with tetracycline and doxycycline. The proposed mechanism is chelation of tetracyclines by bismuth.
MANAGEMENT: Administration of a tetracycline and bismuth-containing preparation should either be avoided or separated by two to three hours. However, this precautionary measure is not considered necessary in treatment regimens where bismuth may be given in combination with tetracycline and other medications for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection, as the relative contribution of systemic versus local antimicrobial activity against Helicobacter pylori has not been established.
