Drug and food interactions

Moderate

cefditoren food

Applies to: cefditoren

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral absorption and bioavailability of cefditoren pivoxil. According to the manufacturer, administration of cefditoren pivoxil following a high-fat meal increased the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) by 50% and 70%, respectively, compared to administration in the fasting state. The absolute bioavailability of cefditoren pivoxil is approximately 14% under fasting conditions and 16% when given with a low-fat meal.

MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, cefditoren pivoxil should be administered with or immediately after a meal.

diclofenac food

Applies to: Voltaren (diclofenac)

GENERALLY AVOID: The concurrent use of aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and ethanol may lead to gastrointestinal (GI) blood loss. The mechanism may be due to a combined local effect as well as inhibition of prostaglandins leading to decreased integrity of the GI lining.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should be counseled on this potential interaction and advised to refrain from alcohol consumption while taking aspirin or NSAIDs.
