Drug Interaction Report

Polythiazide has a moderate potential interaction with Abnormal Glucose Tolerance.

Thiazide diuretics may cause hyperglycemia and glycosuria in patients with diabetes. They may also precipitate diabetes in prediabetic patients. These effects are usually reversible following discontinuation of the drugs. Therapy with thiazide diuretics should be administered cautiously in patients with diabetes mellitus, glucose intolerance, or a predisposition to hyperglycemia. Patients with diabetes mellitus should be monitored more closely during thiazide therapy, and their antidiabetic regimen adjusted accordingly.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Alcoholism.

Tramadol exposes patients and other users to the risks of addiction, abuse, and misuse. Each patient's risk should be assessed before prescribing tramadol, and all patients should be monitored regularly for development of such behaviors and conditions. Risks are increased in patients with personal or family history of substance abuse (including drug or alcohol abuse or addiction) or mental illness (e.g., major depression); the potential for such risks should not prevent proper pain management in any given patient. Patients at increased risk may be prescribed tramadol, but use in such patients requires intensive counseling about the risks and proper use of tramadol, as well as intensive monitoring for signs of addiction, abuse, and misuse; prescribing naloxone for the emergency treatment of opioid overdose should be considered.

Opioids are sought by drug abusers and patients with addiction disorders and are subject to criminal diversion. These risks should be considered when prescribing or dispensing tramadol. Strategies to reduce such risks include prescribing the smallest appropriate quantity and advising the patient about proper disposal of unused drug.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Alcoholism.

The CNS depressant effects of tramadol may be additive with those of alcohol and may lead to profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma, and death. Therapy with tramadol should be administered cautiously (and only when alternative treatment options are inadequate) in patients who might be prone to acute alcohol intake. Dosages and durations should be limited to the minimum required and patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms of respiratory depression and sedation. Prescribing naloxone for the emergency treatment of opioid overdose should be considered; naloxone will reverse some, but not all, symptoms caused by overdosage with tramadol, but it also increases the risk of seizures.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Alcoholism.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can cause serious gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events including inflammation, bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, or large intestine, which can be fatal. These serious adverse events can develop at any time, with or without warning symptoms. NSAIDs should be used with caution in patients with history of peptic ulcer disease and/or GI bleeding, as these patients had a greater than 10-fold increased risk for developing a GI bleed compared to patients without these risk factors. Caution is also advised if NSAIDs are prescribed to patients with other factors that increase risk of GI bleeding, such as: prolonged NSAID therapy; concomitant use of oral corticosteroids, antiplatelet agents (e.g., aspirin), anticoagulants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors; alcohol use; smoking; history of gastrointestinal surgery or anastomosis, older age; poor general health status; and advanced liver disease and/or coagulopathy. Particular vigilance is necessary when treating older adult or debilitated patients since most postmarketing reports of fatal GI events occurred in these patients.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Alcoholism.

Tramadol should not be prescribed for patients who are suicidal or addiction-prone. The use of nonnarcotic analgesics should be considered for patients who are suicidal or depressed. Tramadol should be prescribed with caution for patients with history of misuse and/or are currently taking CNS-active drugs, antidepressant drugs, alcohol in excess, and patients who suffer from emotional disturbance or depression. Patients should be advised not to exceed the recommended dose and to limit their intake of alcohol.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Alcoholism.

Seizures have been reported in patients receiving tramadol within the recommended dosage range. The risk appears to increase with doses above the recommended range and with concomitant use of certain drugs (e.g., those that reduce the seizure threshold). Risk of seizure may also increase in patients with epilepsy, those with a history of seizures, or in patients with a recognized risk for seizure (e.g., head trauma, metabolic disorders, alcohol and drug withdrawal, CNS infections). In tramadol overdose, naloxone administration may increase the risk of seizures.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Altered Consciousness.

Tramadol is contraindicated in patients with significant respiratory depression. Serious, life-threatening, or fatal respiratory depression may occur with tramadol. Patients should be monitored closely for respiratory depression, especially within the first 24 to 72 hours of initiating therapy and after a dosage increase.

The use of tramadol in patients with acute or severe bronchial asthma in an unmonitored setting or without resuscitative equipment is contraindicated. Tramadol-treated patients with significant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or cor pulmonale, and those with substantially decreased respiratory reserve, hypoxia, hypercapnia, or preexisting respiratory depression are at increased risk of decreased respiratory drive (including apnea), even at recommended dosages of tramadol. In patients who may be susceptible to the intracranial effects of carbon dioxide (CO2) retention (e.g., those with evidence of increased intracranial pressure or brain tumors), tramadol may reduce respiratory drive, and the resulting CO2 retention can further increase intracranial pressure; these patients should be monitored for signs of sedation and respiratory depression, especially when starting tramadol.

Life-threatening respiratory depression is more likely to occur in elderly, cachectic, or debilitated patients as they may have altered pharmacokinetics (or altered clearance) compared to younger, healthier patients. These patients should be monitored closely, especially when starting and titrating tramadol and when coadministering with other drugs that depress respiration; alternatively, the use of nonopioid analgesics should be considered.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Anemia.

Anemia has been reported in patients treated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). This may be due to fluid retention, occult/gross blood loss, or an incompletely described effect on erythropoiesis. Hemoglobin or hematocrit should be monitored in patients with any signs/symptoms of anemia or blood loss, especially during long-term therapy. NSAIDs may increase risk of bleeding events; comorbid conditions (e.g., coagulation disorders; concomitant use of warfarin/other anticoagulants, antiplatelet agents, serotonin/serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors) may increase this risk, and patients with these conditions should be monitored for signs of bleeding. Therapy with NSAIDs should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to anemia. Clinical monitoring of hematopoietic function may be appropriate, particularly during chronic therapy.

Polythiazide has a major potential interaction with Anuria.

The use of thiazide diuretics is contraindicated in patients with anuria.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Asphyxia.

Tramadol is contraindicated in patients with significant respiratory depression. Serious, life-threatening, or fatal respiratory depression may occur with tramadol. Patients should be monitored closely for respiratory depression, especially within the first 24 to 72 hours of initiating therapy and after a dosage increase.

The use of tramadol in patients with acute or severe bronchial asthma in an unmonitored setting or without resuscitative equipment is contraindicated. Tramadol-treated patients with significant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or cor pulmonale, and those with substantially decreased respiratory reserve, hypoxia, hypercapnia, or preexisting respiratory depression are at increased risk of decreased respiratory drive (including apnea), even at recommended dosages of tramadol.

These patients should be monitored closely, especially when starting and titrating tramadol and when coadministering with other drugs that depress respiration; alternatively, the use of nonopioid analgesics should be considered.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Asthma.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are contraindicated in patients with history of asthma, urticaria, or other allergic-type reactions after taking aspirin or other NSAIDs; severe, sometimes fatal, anaphylactic reactions to NSAIDs have been reported in such patients. A subpopulation of patients with asthma may have aspirin-sensitive asthma which may include chronic rhinosinusitis complicated by nasal polyps, severe potentially fatal bronchospasm, and/or intolerance to aspirin and other NSAIDs. Since cross-reactivity between aspirin and other NSAIDs has been reported in such aspirin-sensitive patients, therapy with any NSAID should be avoided in patients with this form of aspirin sensitivity. NSAIDs should be used with caution in patients with preexisting asthma (without known aspirin sensitivity), and these patients should be monitored for changes in the signs and symptoms of asthma.

Polythiazide has a moderate potential interaction with Asthma.

Thiazide diuretics should be used with caution in patients with history of bronchial asthma as sensitivity reactions may occur.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Biliary Obstruction.

Tramadol may cause spasm of the sphincter of Oddi. Opioids may increase serum amylase. Patients with biliary tract disease (including acute pancreatitis) should be monitored for worsening symptoms.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Bleeding Disorder.

Anemia has been reported in patients treated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). This may be due to fluid retention, occult/gross blood loss, or an incompletely described effect on erythropoiesis. Hemoglobin or hematocrit should be monitored in patients with any signs/symptoms of anemia or blood loss, especially during long-term therapy. NSAIDs may increase risk of bleeding events; comorbid conditions (e.g., coagulation disorders; concomitant use of warfarin/other anticoagulants, antiplatelet agents, serotonin/serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors) may increase this risk, and patients with these conditions should be monitored for signs of bleeding. Therapy with NSAIDs should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to anemia. Clinical monitoring of hematopoietic function may be appropriate, particularly during chronic therapy.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Brain Tumor.

Tramadol is contraindicated in patients with significant respiratory depression. Serious, life-threatening, or fatal respiratory depression may occur with tramadol.

Seizures have been reported in patients receiving tramadol within the recommended dosage range. The risk appears to increase with doses above the recommended range and with concomitant use of certain drugs (e.g., those that reduce the seizure threshold). Risk of seizure may also increase in patients with epilepsy, those with a history of seizures, or in patients with a recognized risk for seizure (e.g., head trauma, metabolic disorders, alcohol and drug withdrawal, CNS infections). In tramadol overdose, naloxone administration may increase the risk of seizures.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Cerebral Vascular Disorder.

Tramadol is contraindicated in patients with significant respiratory depression. Serious, life-threatening, or fatal respiratory depression may occur with tramadol. Patients should be monitored closely for respiratory depression, especially within the first 24 to 72 hours of initiating therapy and after a dosage increase.

The use of tramadol in patients with acute or severe bronchial asthma in an unmonitored setting or without resuscitative equipment is contraindicated. Tramadol-treated patients with significant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or cor pulmonale, and those with substantially decreased respiratory reserve, hypoxia, hypercapnia, or preexisting respiratory depression are at increased risk of decreased respiratory drive (including apnea), even at recommended dosages of tramadol.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Cerebrovascular Insufficiency.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) cause an increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, including myocardial infarction and stroke, which can be fatal. This risk may occur early in treatment and may increase with duration of use. Clinical trials of several cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) selective and nonselective NSAIDs of up to 3 years duration have supported this increased risk. It is unclear from available data if the risk for cardiovascular thrombotic events is similar for all NSAIDs. Therapy with NSAIDs should be administered cautiously in patients with a history of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease. Patients should be treated with the lowest effective dosage for the shortest duration necessary. Appropriate antiplatelet therapy should be administered to patients requiring cardioprotection; however, there is no consistent evidence that concurrent use of aspirin mitigates the increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events associated with NSAID use, while the risk of serious gastrointestinal events is increased. Physicians and patients should remain alert for the development of adverse cardiovascular events throughout the entire duration of therapy, even without prior cardiovascular symptoms. Patients should be advised to promptly seek medical attention if they experience symptoms of cardiovascular thrombotic events (including chest pain, shortness of breath, weakness, or slurring of speech).

NSAIDs are contraindicated in the setting of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Two large clinical trials of a COX-2 selective NSAID for the treatment of pain in the first 10 to 14 days following CABG surgery found an increased incidence of myocardial infarction and stroke.

The use of NSAIDs should be avoided in patients with a recent myocardial infarction unless the benefits are expected to outweigh the risk of recurrent cardiovascular thrombotic events. If an NSAID is used in patients with a recent myocardial infarction, they should be monitored for signs of cardiac ischemia.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Colonic Ulceration.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can cause serious gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events including inflammation, bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, or large intestine, which can be fatal. These serious adverse events can develop at any time, with or without warning symptoms. NSAIDs should be used with caution in patients with history of peptic ulcer disease and/or GI bleeding, as these patients had a greater than 10-fold increased risk for developing a GI bleed compared to patients without these risk factors. Caution is also advised if NSAIDs are prescribed to patients with other factors that increase risk of GI bleeding, such as: prolonged NSAID therapy; concomitant use of oral corticosteroids, antiplatelet agents (e.g., aspirin), anticoagulants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors; alcohol use; smoking; history of gastrointestinal surgery or anastomosis, older age; poor general health status; and advanced liver disease and/or coagulopathy. Particular vigilance is necessary when treating older adult or debilitated patients since most postmarketing reports of fatal GI events occurred in these patients.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Cor Pulmonale.

Tramadol is contraindicated in patients with significant respiratory depression. Serious, life-threatening, or fatal respiratory depression may occur with tramadol. Patients should be monitored closely for respiratory depression, especially within the first 24 to 72 hours of initiating therapy and after a dosage increase.

The use of tramadol in patients with acute or severe bronchial asthma in an unmonitored setting or without resuscitative equipment is contraindicated. Tramadol-treated patients with significant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or cor pulmonale, and those with substantially decreased respiratory reserve, hypoxia, hypercapnia, or preexisting respiratory depression are at increased risk of decreased respiratory drive (including apnea), even at recommended dosages of tramadol.

These patients should be monitored closely, especially when starting and titrating tramadol and when coadministering with other drugs that depress respiration; alternatively, the use of nonopioid analgesics should be considered.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Dehydration.

Long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has resulted in renal papillary necrosis and other renal injury. Renal toxicity has been seen in patients in whom renal prostaglandins have a compensatory role in the maintenance of renal perfusion; in such patients, NSAIDs may cause a dose-dependent reduction in prostaglandin synthesis and, secondarily, in renal blood flow, which may precipitate overt renal decompensation. Patients at greatest risk for this reaction include those with impaired renal function, dehydration, hypovolemia, heart failure, liver dysfunction; those taking diuretics, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, or angiotensin receptor blockers; and older adult patients. Discontinuation of NSAID therapy generally leads to recovery to the pretreatment state. No information is available regarding NSAID use in patients with advanced renal disease; the renal effects of NSAIDs may hasten the progression of renal dysfunction in patients with preexisting renal disease. Volume status should be corrected in dehydrated or hypovolemic patients prior to initiating treatment. Renal function should be monitored in patients with renal or liver dysfunction, heart failure, dehydration, or hypovolemia during therapy. NSAIDs should be avoided in patients with advanced renal disease unless the benefits are expected to outweigh the risk of worsening renal function; if an NSAID is used in such patients, they should be monitored for signs of worsening renal function.

Polythiazide has a major potential interaction with Dehydration.

The use of thiazide diuretics is commonly associated with loss of electrolytes, most significantly potassium but also sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, and magnesium. The loss of other electrolytes such as phosphate, bromide and iodide is usually slight. Potassium and magnesium depletion may lead to cardiac arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Other electrolyte-related complications include metabolic alkalosis and hyponatremia, which are rarely life-threatening. Therapy with thiazide diuretics should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to fluid and electrolyte depletion, including patients with primary or secondary aldosteronism (may have low potassium levels); those with severe or prolonged diarrhea or vomiting; and those with poor nutritional status. Fluid and electrolyte abnormalities should be corrected prior to initiating therapy, and blood pressure as well as serum electrolyte concentrations monitored periodically and maintained at normal ranges during therapy. Patients should be advised to immediately report signs and symptoms of fluid or electrolyte imbalance, including dry mouth, thirst, weakness, lethargy, drowsiness, restlessness, muscle pains or cramps, muscular fatigue, hypotension, oliguria, tachycardia, arrhythmia, or gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea and vomiting. Digitalized patients and patients with a history of ventricular arrhythmias should be monitored carefully, since development of hypokalemia may be particularly dangerous in these patients. The risk of hypokalemia may be minimized by slow diuresis, a lower thiazide dosage, potassium supplementation, or combined use with a potassium-sparing diuretic.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Dehydration.

Tramadol may cause severe hypotension (including orthostatic hypotension, syncope) in ambulatory patients. Risk is increased in patients whose ability to maintain blood pressure has already been compromised by reduced blood volume or coadministration of certain CNS depressant drugs; these patients should be monitored for signs of hypotension after starting or titrating tramadol. In patients with circulatory shock, tramadol may cause vasodilation that can further reduce cardiac output and blood pressure; tramadol should be avoided in patients with circulatory shock.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Depression.

Tramadol exposes patients and other users to the risks of addiction, abuse, and misuse. Each patient's risk should be assessed before prescribing tramadol, and all patients should be monitored regularly for development of such behaviors and conditions. Risks are increased in patients with personal or family history of substance abuse (including drug or alcohol abuse or addiction) or mental illness (e.g., major depression); the potential for such risks should not prevent proper pain management in any given patient. Patients at increased risk may be prescribed tramadol, but use in such patients requires intensive counseling about the risks and proper use of tramadol, as well as intensive monitoring for signs of addiction, abuse, and misuse; prescribing naloxone for the emergency treatment of opioid overdose should be considered.

Opioids are sought by drug abusers and patients with addiction disorders and are subject to criminal diversion. These risks should be considered when prescribing or dispensing tramadol. Strategies to reduce such risks include prescribing the smallest appropriate quantity and advising the patient about proper disposal of unused drug.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Depression.

Tramadol should not be prescribed for patients who are suicidal or addiction-prone. The use of nonnarcotic analgesics should be considered for patients who are suicidal or depressed. Tramadol should be prescribed with caution for patients with history of misuse and/or are currently taking CNS-active drugs, antidepressant drugs, alcohol in excess, and patients who suffer from emotional disturbance or depression. Patients should be advised not to exceed the recommended dose and to limit their intake of alcohol.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Dermatitis, Drug-Induced.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can cause serious skin adverse reactions (e.g., Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, and exfoliative dermatitis), which can be fatal. NSAIDs can also cause fixed drug eruption, and may present as generalized bullous fixed drug eruption, which can be life-threatening. These serious events may occur without warning. Patients should be advised to discontinue the NSAID and seek medical attention promptly at the first sign of skin rash or any other sign of hypersensitivity. NSAIDs are contraindicated in patients with previous serious skin reactions to these drugs.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Diabetes Mellitus.

Cases of tramadol-associated hypoglycemia have been reported, some resulting in hospitalization. In most cases, patients had predisposing risk factors (e.g., diabetes); caution is recommended in these patients. If hypoglycemia is suspected, blood glucose levels should be monitored and discontinuation of therapy should be considered as appropriate.

Polythiazide has a moderate potential interaction with Diabetes Mellitus.

Thiazide diuretics may cause hyperglycemia and glycosuria in patients with diabetes. They may also precipitate diabetes in prediabetic patients. These effects are usually reversible following discontinuation of the drugs. Therapy with thiazide diuretics should be administered cautiously in patients with diabetes mellitus, glucose intolerance, or a predisposition to hyperglycemia. Patients with diabetes mellitus should be monitored more closely during thiazide therapy, and their antidiabetic regimen adjusted accordingly.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Fluid Retention.

Fluid retention and edema have been reported in association with the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including some topical formulations. NSAIDs (including topicals) can lead to new onset of hypertension or worsening of preexisting hypertension, either of which can contribute to the increased incidence of cardiovascular events. NSAIDs should be used with caution in patients with preexisting fluid retention, hypertension, or history of heart failure. NSAIDs should be avoided in patients with severe heart failure unless the benefits are expected to outweigh the risk of worsening heart failure; if an NSAID is used in such patients, they should be monitored for signs of worsening heart failure. Blood pressure and cardiovascular status should be monitored closely during the initiation of NSAID treatment and throughout the course of therapy.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Gallbladder Disease.

Tramadol may cause spasm of the sphincter of Oddi. Opioids may increase serum amylase. Patients with biliary tract disease (including acute pancreatitis) should be monitored for worsening symptoms.

Particular vigilance is necessary when treating older adult or debilitated patients since most postmarketing reports of fatal GI events occurred in these patients.

Polythiazide has a moderate potential interaction with Gout.

Thiazide diuretics decrease the rate of uric acid excretion. Hyperuricemia occurs frequently but is usually asymptomatic and rarely leads to clinical gout except in patients with a history of gout or chronic renal failure. Therapy with thiazide diuretics should be administered cautiously in such patients.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Head Injury.

Tramadol is contraindicated in patients with significant respiratory depression. Serious, life-threatening, or fatal respiratory depression may occur with tramadol. Patients should be monitored closely for respiratory depression, especially within the first 24 to 72 hours of initiating therapy and after a dosage increase.

The use of tramadol in patients with acute or severe bronchial asthma in an unmonitored setting or without resuscitative equipment is contraindicated. Tramadol-treated patients with significant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or cor pulmonale, and those with substantially decreased respiratory reserve, hypoxia, hypercapnia, or preexisting respiratory depression are at increased risk of decreased respiratory drive (including apnea), even at recommended dosages of tramadol. In patients who may be susceptible to the intracranial effects of carbon dioxide (CO2) retention (e.g., those with evidence of increased intracranial pressure or brain tumors), tramadol may reduce respiratory drive, and the resulting CO2 retention can further increase intracranial pressure; these patients should be monitored for signs of sedation and respiratory depression, especially when starting tramadol.

Life-threatening respiratory depression is more likely to occur in elderly, cachectic, or debilitated patients as they may have altered pharmacokinetics (or altered clearance) compared to younger, healthier patients. These patients should be monitored closely, especially when starting and titrating tramadol and when coadministering with other drugs that depress respiration; alternatively, the use of nonopioid analgesics should be considered.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Head Injury.

Opioids may obscure the clinical course in a patient with a head injury. The use of tramadol should be avoided in patients with impaired consciousness or coma.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Heart Failure.

Fluid retention and edema have been reported in association with the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including some topical formulations. NSAIDs (including topicals) can lead to new onset of hypertension or worsening of preexisting hypertension, either of which can contribute to the increased incidence of cardiovascular events. NSAIDs should be used with caution in patients with preexisting fluid retention, hypertension, or history of heart failure. NSAIDs should be avoided in patients with severe heart failure unless the benefits are expected to outweigh the risk of worsening heart failure; if an NSAID is used in such patients, they should be monitored for signs of worsening heart failure. Blood pressure and cardiovascular status should be monitored closely during the initiation of NSAID treatment and throughout the course of therapy.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Heart Failure.

Long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has resulted in renal papillary necrosis and other renal injury. Renal toxicity has been seen in patients in whom renal prostaglandins have a compensatory role in the maintenance of renal perfusion; in such patients, NSAIDs may cause a dose-dependent reduction in prostaglandin synthesis and, secondarily, in renal blood flow, which may precipitate overt renal decompensation. Patients at greatest risk for this reaction include those with impaired renal function, dehydration, hypovolemia, heart failure, liver dysfunction; those taking diuretics, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, or angiotensin receptor blockers; and older adult patients. Discontinuation of NSAID therapy generally leads to recovery to the pretreatment state. No information is available regarding NSAID use in patients with advanced renal disease; the renal effects of NSAIDs may hasten the progression of renal dysfunction in patients with preexisting renal disease. Volume status should be corrected in dehydrated or hypovolemic patients prior to initiating treatment. Renal function should be monitored in patients with renal or liver dysfunction, heart failure, dehydration, or hypovolemia during therapy. NSAIDs should be avoided in patients with advanced renal disease unless the benefits are expected to outweigh the risk of worsening renal function; if an NSAID is used in such patients, they should be monitored for signs of worsening renal function.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with High Blood Pressure.

Fluid retention and edema have been reported in association with the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including some topical formulations. NSAIDs (including topicals) can lead to new onset of hypertension or worsening of preexisting hypertension, either of which can contribute to the increased incidence of cardiovascular events. NSAIDs should be used with caution in patients with preexisting fluid retention, hypertension, or history of heart failure. NSAIDs should be avoided in patients with severe heart failure unless the benefits are expected to outweigh the risk of worsening heart failure; if an NSAID is used in such patients, they should be monitored for signs of worsening heart failure. Blood pressure and cardiovascular status should be monitored closely during the initiation of NSAID treatment and throughout the course of therapy.

Polythiazide has a moderate potential interaction with High Cholesterol.

Thiazide diuretics may increase serum triglyceride and cholesterol levels, primarily LDL and VLDL. Whether these effects are dose-related and sustained during chronic therapy are unknown. Patients with preexisting hyperlipidemia may require closer monitoring during thiazide therapy, and adjustments made accordingly in their lipid-lowering regimen

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with History, Peptic Ulcer.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can cause serious gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events including inflammation, bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, or large intestine, which can be fatal. These serious adverse events can develop at any time, with or without warning symptoms. NSAIDs should be used with caution in patients with history of peptic ulcer disease and/or GI bleeding, as these patients had a greater than 10-fold increased risk for developing a GI bleed compared to patients without these risk factors. Caution is also advised if NSAIDs are prescribed to patients with other factors that increase risk of GI bleeding, such as: prolonged NSAID therapy; concomitant use of oral corticosteroids, antiplatelet agents (e.g., aspirin), anticoagulants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors; alcohol use; smoking; history of gastrointestinal surgery or anastomosis, older age; poor general health status; and advanced liver disease and/or coagulopathy. Particular vigilance is necessary when treating older adult or debilitated patients since most postmarketing reports of fatal GI events occurred in these patients.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with History - Cerebrovascular Disease.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) cause an increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, including myocardial infarction and stroke, which can be fatal. This risk may occur early in treatment and may increase with duration of use. Clinical trials of several cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) selective and nonselective NSAIDs of up to 3 years duration have supported this increased risk. It is unclear from available data if the risk for cardiovascular thrombotic events is similar for all NSAIDs. Therapy with NSAIDs should be administered cautiously in patients with a history of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease. Patients should be treated with the lowest effective dosage for the shortest duration necessary. Appropriate antiplatelet therapy should be administered to patients requiring cardioprotection; however, there is no consistent evidence that concurrent use of aspirin mitigates the increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events associated with NSAID use, while the risk of serious gastrointestinal events is increased. Physicians and patients should remain alert for the development of adverse cardiovascular events throughout the entire duration of therapy, even without prior cardiovascular symptoms. Patients should be advised to promptly seek medical attention if they experience symptoms of cardiovascular thrombotic events (including chest pain, shortness of breath, weakness, or slurring of speech).

NSAIDs are contraindicated in the setting of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Two large clinical trials of a COX-2 selective NSAID for the treatment of pain in the first 10 to 14 days following CABG surgery found an increased incidence of myocardial infarction and stroke.

The use of NSAIDs should be avoided in patients with a recent myocardial infarction unless the benefits are expected to outweigh the risk of recurrent cardiovascular thrombotic events. If an NSAID is used in patients with a recent myocardial infarction, they should be monitored for signs of cardiac ischemia.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with History - Myocardial Infarction.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) cause an increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, including myocardial infarction and stroke, which can be fatal. This risk may occur early in treatment and may increase with duration of use. Clinical trials of several cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) selective and nonselective NSAIDs of up to 3 years duration have supported this increased risk.

If an NSAID is used in patients with a recent myocardial infarction, they should be monitored for signs of cardiac ischemia.

Polythiazide has a major potential interaction with Hyperaldosteronism.

The use of thiazide diuretics is commonly associated with loss of electrolytes, most significantly potassium but also sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, and magnesium. The loss of other electrolytes such as phosphate, bromide and iodide is usually slight. Potassium and magnesium depletion may lead to cardiac arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Other electrolyte-related complications include metabolic alkalosis and hyponatremia, which are rarely life-threatening. Therapy with thiazide diuretics should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to fluid and electrolyte depletion, including patients with primary or secondary aldosteronism (may have low potassium levels); those with severe or prolonged diarrhea or vomiting; and those with poor nutritional status. Fluid and electrolyte abnormalities should be corrected prior to initiating therapy, and blood pressure as well as serum electrolyte concentrations monitored periodically and maintained at normal ranges during therapy. Patients should be advised to immediately report signs and symptoms of fluid or electrolyte imbalance, including dry mouth, thirst, weakness, lethargy, drowsiness, restlessness, muscle pains or cramps, muscular fatigue, hypotension, oliguria, tachycardia, arrhythmia, or gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea and vomiting. Digitalized patients and patients with a history of ventricular arrhythmias should be monitored carefully, since development of hypokalemia may be particularly dangerous in these patients. The risk of hypokalemia may be minimized by slow diuresis, a lower thiazide dosage, potassium supplementation, or combined use with a potassium-sparing diuretic.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Hyperkalemia.

Increases in serum potassium concentration (including hyperkalemia) have been reported with use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), even in some patients without renal impairment. In patients with normal renal function, these effects have been attributed to a hyporeninemic-hypoaldosteronism state. Caution is advised in patients with hyperkalemia.

Polythiazide has a moderate potential interaction with Hyperparathyroidism.

Urinary calcium excretion is decreased by thiazide diuretics during chronic administration. Pathologic changes in the parathyroid gland with hypercalcemia and hypophosphatemia have been reported during prolonged therapy. However, the common complications of hyperparathyroidism such as renal lithiasis, bone resorption, and peptic ulceration have not been seen. Clinicians should be cognizant of these effects when prescribing or administering thiazide therapy to patients with hyperparathyroidism. These drugs should be discontinued before carrying out tests for parathyroid function.

Polythiazide has a major potential interaction with Hypokalemia.

The use of thiazide diuretics is commonly associated with loss of electrolytes, most significantly potassium but also sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, and magnesium. The loss of other electrolytes such as phosphate, bromide and iodide is usually slight. Potassium and magnesium depletion may lead to cardiac arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Other electrolyte-related complications include metabolic alkalosis and hyponatremia, which are rarely life-threatening.

The risk of hypokalemia may be minimized by slow diuresis, a lower thiazide dosage, potassium supplementation, or combined use with a potassium-sparing diuretic.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Hyponatremia.

Long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has resulted in renal papillary necrosis and other renal injury. Renal toxicity has been seen in patients in whom renal prostaglandins have a compensatory role in the maintenance of renal perfusion; in such patients, NSAIDs may cause a dose-dependent reduction in prostaglandin synthesis and, secondarily, in renal blood flow, which may precipitate overt renal decompensation. Patients at greatest risk for this reaction include those with impaired renal function, dehydration, hypovolemia, heart failure, liver dysfunction; those taking diuretics, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, or angiotensin receptor blockers; and older adult patients.

The risk of hypokalemia may be minimized by slow diuresis, a lower thiazide dosage, potassium supplementation, or combined use with a potassium-sparing diuretic.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Hypotension.

Tramadol may cause severe hypotension (including orthostatic hypotension, syncope) in ambulatory patients. Risk is increased in patients whose ability to maintain blood pressure has already been compromised by reduced blood volume or coadministration of certain CNS depressant drugs; these patients should be monitored for signs of hypotension after starting or titrating tramadol. In patients with circulatory shock, tramadol may cause vasodilation that can further reduce cardiac output and blood pressure; tramadol should be avoided in patients with circulatory shock.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Ischemic Heart Disease.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) cause an increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, including myocardial infarction and stroke, which can be fatal. This risk may occur early in treatment and may increase with duration of use. Clinical trials of several cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) selective and nonselective NSAIDs of up to 3 years duration have supported this increased risk.

If an NSAID is used in patients with a recent myocardial infarction, they should be monitored for signs of cardiac ischemia.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Liver Disease.

Long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has resulted in renal papillary necrosis and other renal injury. Renal toxicity has been seen in patients in whom renal prostaglandins have a compensatory role in the maintenance of renal perfusion; in such patients, NSAIDs may cause a dose-dependent reduction in prostaglandin synthesis and, secondarily, in renal blood flow, which may precipitate overt renal decompensation. Patients at greatest risk for this reaction include those with impaired renal function, dehydration, hypovolemia, heart failure, liver dysfunction; those taking diuretics, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, or angiotensin receptor blockers; and older adult patients.

No information is available regarding NSAID use in patients with advanced renal disease; the renal effects of NSAIDs may hasten the progression of renal dysfunction in patients with preexisting renal disease. Volume status should be corrected in dehydrated or hypovolemic patients prior to initiating treatment. Renal function should be monitored in patients with renal or liver dysfunction, heart failure, dehydration, or hypovolemia during therapy. NSAIDs should be avoided in patients with advanced renal disease unless the benefits are expected to outweigh the risk of worsening renal function; if an NSAID is used in such patients, they should be monitored for signs of worsening renal function.

Polythiazide has a major potential interaction with Liver Disease.

Patients with severe liver disease or cirrhosis are very susceptible to thiazide-induced hypokalemic hypochloremic alkalosis. Blood ammonia concentrations may be further increased in patients with previously elevated concentrations. Hepatic encephalopathy and death have occurred secondary to the electrolyte alterations accompanying diuretic use. Therapy with thiazide diuretics should be administered cautiously in patients with impaired hepatic function or progressive liver disease, and discontinued promptly if signs of impending hepatic coma appear (e.g., tremors, confusion, and increased jaundice).

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Liver Disease.

Therapy with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) should be administered cautiously in patients with preexisting liver disease. Periodic monitoring of liver function is recommended during prolonged therapy. NSAIDs are also highly protein-bound and some are extensively metabolized by the liver. Metabolic activity and/or plasma protein binding may be altered in patients with hepatic impairment. A dosage reduction may be required in some cases.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Liver Disease.

Tramadol is converted by the liver to several metabolites, one of which (referred to as M1) is pharmacologically active and a more potent analgesic than tramadol itself. The metabolism of both tramadol and M1 has been shown to decrease in patients with advanced cirrhosis of the liver, resulting in increased exposure to tramadol as well as substantially prolonged elimination half-lives for both tramadol and M1. Therapy with tramadol should be administered cautiously in patients with liver dysfunction. In patients with severe liver dysfunction, dosage reduction is recommended with the immediate-release formulations, while the extended-release formulations should not be used.

Polythiazide has a major potential interaction with Lupus Erythematosus.

The use of thiazide diuretics has been reported to possibly exacerbate or activate systemic lupus erythematosus. Reported cases have generally been associated with chlorothiazide and hydrochlorothiazide. Therapy with thiazide diuretics should be administered cautiously in patients with a history or risk of SLE.

Polythiazide has a major potential interaction with Magnesium Imbalance.

The use of thiazide diuretics is commonly associated with loss of electrolytes, most significantly potassium but also sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, and magnesium. The loss of other electrolytes such as phosphate, bromide and iodide is usually slight. Potassium and magnesium depletion may lead to cardiac arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Other electrolyte-related complications include metabolic alkalosis and hyponatremia, which are rarely life-threatening.

Patients should be advised to immediately report signs and symptoms of fluid or electrolyte imbalance, including dry mouth, thirst, weakness, lethargy, drowsiness, restlessness, muscle pains or cramps, muscular fatigue, hypotension, oliguria, tachycardia, arrhythmia, or gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea and vomiting. Digitalized patients and patients with a history of ventricular arrhythmias should be monitored carefully, since development of hypokalemia may be particularly dangerous in these patients. The risk of hypokalemia may be minimized by slow diuresis, a lower thiazide dosage, potassium supplementation, or combined use with a potassium-sparing diuretic.

Polythiazide has a major potential interaction with Malnourishment.

The use of thiazide diuretics is commonly associated with loss of electrolytes, most significantly potassium but also sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, and magnesium. The loss of other electrolytes such as phosphate, bromide and iodide is usually slight. Potassium and magnesium depletion may lead to cardiac arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Other electrolyte-related complications include metabolic alkalosis and hyponatremia, which are rarely life-threatening. Therapy with thiazide diuretics should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to fluid and electrolyte depletion, including patients with primary or secondary aldosteronism (may have low potassium levels); those with severe or prolonged diarrhea or vomiting; and those with poor nutritional status.

Patients should be advised to immediately report signs and symptoms of fluid or electrolyte imbalance, including dry mouth, thirst, weakness, lethargy, drowsiness, restlessness, muscle pains or cramps, muscular fatigue, hypotension, oliguria, tachycardia, arrhythmia, or gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea and vomiting. Digitalized patients and patients with a history of ventricular arrhythmias should be monitored carefully, since development of hypokalemia may be particularly dangerous in these patients. The risk of hypokalemia may be minimized by slow diuresis, a lower thiazide dosage, potassium supplementation, or combined use with a potassium-sparing diuretic.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Noninfectious Colitis.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can cause serious gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events including inflammation, bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, or large intestine, which can be fatal. These serious adverse events can develop at any time, with or without warning symptoms. NSAIDs should be used with caution in patients with history of peptic ulcer disease and/or GI bleeding, as these patients had a greater than 10-fold increased risk for developing a GI bleed compared to patients without these risk factors. Caution is also advised if NSAIDs are prescribed to patients with other factors that increase risk of GI bleeding, such as: prolonged NSAID therapy; concomitant use of oral corticosteroids, antiplatelet agents (e.g., aspirin), anticoagulants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors; alcohol use; smoking; history of gastrointestinal surgery or anastomosis, older age; poor general health status; and advanced liver disease and/or coagulopathy. Particular vigilance is necessary when treating older adult or debilitated patients since most postmarketing reports of fatal GI events occurred in these patients.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Pancreatitis.

Tramadol may cause spasm of the sphincter of Oddi. Opioids may increase serum amylase. Patients with biliary tract disease (including acute pancreatitis) should be monitored for worsening symptoms.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Peptic Ulcer.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can cause serious gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events including inflammation, bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, or large intestine, which can be fatal. These serious adverse events can develop at any time, with or without warning symptoms. NSAIDs should be used with caution in patients with history of peptic ulcer disease and/or GI bleeding, as these patients had a greater than 10-fold increased risk for developing a GI bleed compared to patients without these risk factors.

Particular vigilance is necessary when treating older adult or debilitated patients since most postmarketing reports of fatal GI events occurred in these patients.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Pseudotumor Cerebri.

Opioids may obscure the clinical course in a patient with a head injury. The use of tramadol should be avoided in patients with impaired consciousness or coma.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Psychiatric Disorders.

Tramadol exposes patients and other users to the risks of addiction, abuse, and misuse. Each patient's risk should be assessed before prescribing tramadol, and all patients should be monitored regularly for development of such behaviors and conditions. Risks are increased in patients with personal or family history of substance abuse (including drug or alcohol abuse or addiction) or mental illness (e.g., major depression); the potential for such risks should not prevent proper pain management in any given patient. Patients at increased risk may be prescribed tramadol, but use in such patients requires intensive counseling about the risks and proper use of tramadol, as well as intensive monitoring for signs of addiction, abuse, and misuse; prescribing naloxone for the emergency treatment of opioid overdose should be considered.

Opioids are sought by drug abusers and patients with addiction disorders and are subject to criminal diversion. These risks should be considered when prescribing or dispensing tramadol. Strategies to reduce such risks include prescribing the smallest appropriate quantity and advising the patient about proper disposal of unused drug.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Psychosis.

Tramadol should not be prescribed for patients who are suicidal or addiction-prone. The use of nonnarcotic analgesics should be considered for patients who are suicidal or depressed. Tramadol should be prescribed with caution for patients with history of misuse and/or are currently taking CNS-active drugs, antidepressant drugs, alcohol in excess, and patients who suffer from emotional disturbance or depression. Patients should be advised not to exceed the recommended dose and to limit their intake of alcohol.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Pulmonary Impairment.

Tramadol is contraindicated in patients with significant respiratory depression. Serious, life-threatening, or fatal respiratory depression may occur with tramadol. Patients should be monitored closely for respiratory depression, especially within the first 24 to 72 hours of initiating therapy and after a dosage increase.

The use of tramadol in patients with acute or severe bronchial asthma in an unmonitored setting or without resuscitative equipment is contraindicated. Tramadol-treated patients with significant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or cor pulmonale, and those with substantially decreased respiratory reserve, hypoxia, hypercapnia, or preexisting respiratory depression are at increased risk of decreased respiratory drive (including apnea), even at recommended dosages of tramadol. In patients who may be susceptible to the intracranial effects of carbon dioxide (CO2) retention (e.g., those with evidence of increased intracranial pressure or brain tumors), tramadol may reduce respiratory drive, and the resulting CO2 retention can further increase intracranial pressure; these patients should be monitored for signs of sedation and respiratory depression, especially when starting tramadol.

Life-threatening respiratory depression is more likely to occur in elderly, cachectic, or debilitated patients as they may have altered pharmacokinetics (or altered clearance) compared to younger, healthier patients. These patients should be monitored closely, especially when starting and titrating tramadol and when coadministering with other drugs that depress respiration; alternatively, the use of nonopioid analgesics should be considered.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has resulted in renal papillary necrosis and other renal injury. Renal toxicity has been seen in patients in whom renal prostaglandins have a compensatory role in the maintenance of renal perfusion; in such patients, NSAIDs may cause a dose-dependent reduction in prostaglandin synthesis and, secondarily, in renal blood flow, which may precipitate overt renal decompensation. Patients at greatest risk for this reaction include those with impaired renal function, dehydration, hypovolemia, heart failure, liver dysfunction; those taking diuretics, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, or angiotensin receptor blockers; and older adult patients. Discontinuation of NSAID therapy generally leads to recovery to the pretreatment state. No information is available regarding NSAID use in patients with advanced renal disease; the renal effects of NSAIDs may hasten the progression of renal dysfunction in patients with preexisting renal disease. Volume status should be corrected in dehydrated or hypovolemic patients prior to initiating treatment. Renal function should be monitored in patients with renal or liver dysfunction, heart failure, dehydration, or hypovolemia during therapy. NSAIDs should be avoided in patients with advanced renal disease unless the benefits are expected to outweigh the risk of worsening renal function; if an NSAID is used in such patients, they should be monitored for signs of worsening renal function.

Polythiazide has a major potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Thiazide diuretics may be ineffective when the glomerular filtration rate is low (GFR < 25 mL/min) because they are not expected to be filtered into the renal tubule, their site of action. In addition, thiazide diuretics decrease the GFR and may precipitate azotemia in renal disease. Cumulative effects may also develop because most of these drugs are excreted unchanged in the urine by glomerular filtration and active tubular secretion. Therapy with thiazide diuretics should be administered cautiously at reduced dosages in patients with renal impairment. If renal function becomes progressively worse, as indicated by rising BUN or serum creatinine levels, an interruption or discontinuation of thiazide therapy should be considered.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Increases in serum potassium concentration (including hyperkalemia) have been reported with use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), even in some patients without renal impairment. In patients with normal renal function, these effects have been attributed to a hyporeninemic-hypoaldosteronism state. Caution is advised in patients with hyperkalemia.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Tramadol and its metabolites, one of which (referred to as M1) is pharmacologically active and a more potent analgesic than tramadol itself, are primarily excreted in the urine. The rate and extent of excretion of both tramadol and M1 have been shown to decrease in patients with impaired renal function. Therapy with tramadol should be administered cautiously in such patients. In patients with CrCl less than 30 mL/min, dosage reduction is recommended with the immediate-release formulations, while the extended-release formulations should not be used.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Respiratory Arrest.

Tramadol is contraindicated in patients with significant respiratory depression. Serious, life-threatening, or fatal respiratory depression may occur with tramadol. Patients should be monitored closely for respiratory depression, especially within the first 24 to 72 hours of initiating therapy and after a dosage increase.

The use of tramadol in patients with acute or severe bronchial asthma in an unmonitored setting or without resuscitative equipment is contraindicated. Tramadol-treated patients with significant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or cor pulmonale, and those with substantially decreased respiratory reserve, hypoxia, hypercapnia, or preexisting respiratory depression are at increased risk of decreased respiratory drive (including apnea), even at recommended dosages of tramadol. In patients who may be susceptible to the intracranial effects of carbon dioxide (CO2) retention (e.g., those with evidence of increased intracranial pressure or brain tumors), tramadol may reduce respiratory drive, and the resulting CO2 retention can further increase intracranial pressure; these patients should be monitored for signs of sedation and respiratory depression, especially when starting tramadol.

Life-threatening respiratory depression is more likely to occur in elderly, cachectic, or debilitated patients as they may have altered pharmacokinetics (or altered clearance) compared to younger, healthier patients. These patients should be monitored closely, especially when starting and titrating tramadol and when coadministering with other drugs that depress respiration; alternatively, the use of nonopioid analgesics should be considered.

The traMADol in celecoxib / tramadol has a moderate potential interaction with Shock.

Tramadol may cause severe hypotension (including orthostatic hypotension, syncope) in ambulatory patients. Risk is increased in patients whose ability to maintain blood pressure has already been compromised by reduced blood volume or coadministration of certain CNS depressant drugs; these patients should be monitored for signs of hypotension after starting or titrating tramadol. In patients with circulatory shock, tramadol may cause vasodilation that can further reduce cardiac output and blood pressure; tramadol should be avoided in patients with circulatory shock.

The celecoxib in celecoxib / tramadol has a major potential interaction with Smoking.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can cause serious gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events including inflammation, bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, or large intestine, which can be fatal. These serious adverse events can develop at any time, with or without warning symptoms. NSAIDs should be used with caution in patients with history of peptic ulcer disease and/or GI bleeding, as these patients had a greater than 10-fold increased risk for developing a GI bleed compared to patients without these risk factors. Caution is also advised if NSAIDs are prescribed to patients with other factors that increase risk of GI bleeding, such as: prolonged NSAID therapy; concomitant use of oral corticosteroids, antiplatelet agents (e.g., aspirin), anticoagulants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors; alcohol use; smoking; history of gastrointestinal surgery or anastomosis, older age; poor general health status; and advanced liver disease and/or coagulopathy. Particular vigilance is necessary when treating older adult or debilitated patients since most postmarketing reports of fatal GI events occurred in these patients.

Polythiazide has a moderate potential interaction with Thyroid Disease.

Thiazide diuretics may decrease serum PBI (protein-bound iodine) levels without associated thyroid disturbance. Clinicians should be cognizant of this effect when prescribing or administering thiazide therapy to patients with thyroid disorders.

Polythiazide has a major potential interaction with Ventricular Arrhythmia.

The use of thiazide diuretics is commonly associated with loss of electrolytes, most significantly potassium but also sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, and magnesium. The loss of other electrolytes such as phosphate, bromide and iodide is usually slight. Potassium and magnesium depletion may lead to cardiac arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Other electrolyte-related complications include metabolic alkalosis and hyponatremia, which are rarely life-threatening. Therapy with thiazide diuretics should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to fluid and electrolyte depletion, including patients with primary or secondary aldosteronism (may have low potassium levels); those with severe or prolonged diarrhea or vomiting; and those with poor nutritional status. Fluid and electrolyte abnormalities should be corrected prior to initiating therapy, and blood pressure as well as serum electrolyte concentrations monitored periodically and maintained at normal ranges during therapy. Patients should be advised to immediately report signs and symptoms of fluid or electrolyte imbalance, including dry mouth, thirst, weakness, lethargy, drowsiness, restlessness, muscle pains or cramps, muscular fatigue, hypotension, oliguria, tachycardia, arrhythmia, or gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea and vomiting. Digitalized patients and patients with a history of ventricular arrhythmias should be monitored carefully, since development of hypokalemia may be particularly dangerous in these patients. The risk of hypokalemia may be minimized by slow diuresis, a lower thiazide dosage, potassium supplementation, or combined use with a potassium-sparing diuretic.
