Drug Interaction Report

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a major potential interaction with Bipolar Disorder.

Adult and pediatric patients with depression and other psychiatric disorders may experience worsening of their symptoms and may have the emergence of suicidal thoughts and behavior. Patients should be monitored appropriately and observed closely for worsening of their symptoms, suicidality or changes in their behavior, especially during the first few months of treatment, and at times of dose changes. Discontinuing the medication should be considered if symptoms are persistently worse, or abrupt in onset. It may be prudent to refrain from dispensing large quantities of medication to these patients.

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a moderate potential interaction with Bipolar Disorder.

Therapy with SNRI antidepressants can cause activation of mania and hypomania and should be used with caution in patients with personal or family history of mania, hypomania, bipolar disorder, and other mood disorders.

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a moderate potential interaction with Dehydration.

Treatment with SNRI antidepressants can cause hyponatremia. Caution should be used when treating patients with hyponatremia or at greater risk of hyponatremia such as the elderly, patients taking diuretics or who are volume depleted.

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a major potential interaction with Depression.

Adult and pediatric patients with depression and other psychiatric disorders may experience worsening of their symptoms and may have the emergence of suicidal thoughts and behavior. Patients should be monitored appropriately and observed closely for worsening of their symptoms, suicidality or changes in their behavior, especially during the first few months of treatment, and at times of dose changes. Discontinuing the medication should be considered if symptoms are persistently worse, or abrupt in onset. It may be prudent to refrain from dispensing large quantities of medication to these patients.

The terbinafine in Lamisil has a moderate potential interaction with Depression.

Postmarketing studies have reported depressive symptoms with the use of terbinafine tablets. Terbinafine should be used with caution in patients with depression, and prescribers should be alert to the development of depressive symptoms. Patients and caregivers should be instructed to report any depressive symptoms.

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a moderate potential interaction with Diabetes Mellitus.

In clinical trials, treatment with duloxetine delayed-release worsened the glycemic control in some patients with diabetes. Caution should be used when using duloxetine in diabetic patients and their glycemic levels should be checked regularly.

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a moderate potential interaction with Glaucoma, Narrow Angle.

SNRI antidepressants cause pupillary dilation that may trigger an angle closure attack in patients with anatomically narrow angle without iridectomy.

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a moderate potential interaction with High Blood Pressure.

Selective serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor antidepressants (SNRIs) have been associated with sustained increases in blood pressure. Therapy with SNRI antidepressants should be administered cautiously in patients with preexisting hypertension. Blood pressure should be assessed prior to initiating treatment and monitored regularly. The dose should be reduced or discontinued if necessary.

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a moderate potential interaction with Hyponatremia.

Treatment with SNRI antidepressants can cause hyponatremia. Caution should be used when treating patients with hyponatremia or at greater risk of hyponatremia such as the elderly, patients taking diuretics or who are volume depleted.

The terbinafine in Lamisil has a moderate potential interaction with Immunodeficiency.

Transient decreases in absolute lymphocyte counts have been reported with oral terbinafine during clinical trials. The clinical significance of these decreases is unknown. Monitoring of complete blood counts may be appropriate in patients with known or suspected immunodeficiency receiving terbinafine for greater than six weeks.

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a major potential interaction with Liver Disease.

Postmarketing studies have reported that duloxetine and some other SNRIs like milnacipran may aggravate preexisting liver disease. The use of duloxetine delayed-release and milnacipran should be avoided in patients with chronic liver disease or cirrhosis.

The terbinafine in Lamisil has a major potential interaction with Liver Disease.

Oral terbinafine is not recommended for use in patients with chronic or active liver disease. Terbinafine may be hepatotoxic. Rare cases of cholestatic hepatitis and liver failure, some resulting in liver transplant or death, have been reported during treatment of various dermatologic conditions in patients with and without preexisting liver disease. Although a causal relationship has not been established, the severity of hepatic events and/or their outcome may be worse in patients with active or chronic liver disease.

The terbinafine in Lamisil has a moderate potential interaction with Lupus Erythematosus.

Precipitation and exacerbation of cutaneous and systemic lupus erythematosus has been reported postmarketing in patients taking terbinafine tablets. Terbinafine should be discontinued in patients with any clinical signs and symptoms suggestive of lupus erythematosus.

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a moderate potential interaction with Mania.

Therapy with SNRI antidepressants can cause activation of mania and hypomania and should be used with caution in patients with personal or family history of mania, hypomania, bipolar disorder, and other mood disorders.

The terbinafine in Lamisil has a major potential interaction with Neutropenia.

Isolated cases of severe neutropenia have been reported in patients administered oral terbinafine. A causal relationship has not been established, although the neutropenia resolved following discontinuation of terbinafine with or without supportive care. Therapy with terbinafine should be administered cautiously in patients with preexisting neutropenia. It may be appropriate to monitor blood counts more frequently during terbinafine therapy. If secondary infection occurs and the neutrophil count is <= 1000 cells/mm3, terbinafine should be discontinued and supportive management initiated.

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a major potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

The use of duloxetine should be avoided in patients with severe renal impairment (GFR <30 mL/min).

The terbinafine in Lamisil has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

The use of oral terbinafine in patients with renal impairment (CrCl <= 50 mL/min) has not been adequately studied and is, therefore, not recommended. Terbinafine metabolites are primarily eliminated by the kidney. The clinical significance of possible metabolite accumulation due to decreased clearance is unknown.

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a moderate potential interaction with Seizures.

SNRI antidepressants may trigger seizures and should be administered with caution in patients with a seizure disorder.

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a moderate potential interaction with Urinary Tract Infection.

SNRI antidepressants have a noradrenergic effect and can affect urethral resistance. Caution should be used in patients with a history of dysuria, prostatic hypertrophy, prostatitis, and other lower urinary tract obstructive disorders.

The DULoxetine in Cymbalta has a moderate potential interaction with Urinary Tract Obstruction.

SNRI antidepressants have a noradrenergic effect and can affect urethral resistance. Caution should be used in patients with a history of dysuria, prostatic hypertrophy, prostatitis, and other lower urinary tract obstructive disorders.
