Drug Interaction Report
2 potential interactions and/or warnings found for the following 2 drugs:
- hyaluronidase / ocrelizumab
- ropivacaine / sufentanil
Interactions between your drugs
hyaluronidase ROPivacaine
Applies to: hyaluronidase / ocrelizumab, ropivacaine / sufentanil
When hyaluronidase is added to a local anesthetic, the local anesthetic solution undergoes increased absorption, resulting in a shorter duration of action and possible increased frequency of systemic reactions. The clinical significance is unknown. It may be advisable to monitor the patient for altered anesthetic efficacy and side effects.

Drug and food interactions
SUFentanil food
Applies to: ropivacaine / sufentanil
GENERALLY AVOID: Ethanol may potentiate the central nervous system (CNS) depressant effects of opioid analgesics. Concomitant use may result in additive CNS depression and impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills. In more severe cases, hypotension, respiratory depression, profound sedation, coma, or even death may occur.
MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of opioid analgesics with ethanol should be avoided.
