4. Caricin 500mg drug interactions with other drugs

As with other macrolide antibiotics, concomitant use of Caricin with drugs metabolised by the cytochrome P450 system (e.g., Warfarin, Lovastatin, Argot alkaloids, Triazolam, Disopyramid, Phenytoin and Cyclosporin) may increase serum concentrations of these drugs. Administration of Caricin đồ sộ patients receiving Theophylline will increase serum theophylline concentrations and increase the potential for theophylline toxicity. The use of Caricin in patients taking Warfarin may potentiate the effects of Warfarin. Prothrombin time should be regularly monitored in these patients. The effectiveness of Digoxin may be increased when used concurrently with Caricin. Caricin may increase the potency of Carbamazepine by decreasing the rate of excretion. Macrolide antibiotics have been reported đồ sộ alter the metabolism of terfenadine, causing increased concentrations of terfenadine. This condition is associated with cardiac arrhythmias and therefore Caricin should be avoided in patients receiving terfenadine and any related non-sedating antihistamines such as Astemizol. Concomitant administration of caricin with zidovudine đồ sộ HIV-infected adult patients may decrease steady-state zidovudine concentrations. Most can avoid this by taking Caricin and Zidovudine about 1-2 hours apart. No similar reactions have been observed in children. Plasma concentrations of Clarithromycin and Omeprazole may be increased when used concurrently, but no dosage adjustment is required. Clarithromycin plasma concentrations may be increased when used concomitantly with Maalox or Ranitidine. However, in this case, no dosage adjustment is required.
