Interactions between your drugs
mexiletine celecoxib
Applies to: mexiletine, Celebrex (celecoxib)
MONITOR: Coadministration with celecoxib may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the CYP450 2D6 isoenzyme. The mechanism is decreased clearance due to inhibition of CYP450 2D6 activity by celecoxib.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if celecoxib must be used concurrently with medications that undergo metabolism by CYP450 2D6, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever celecoxib is added to or withdrawn from therapy.
