| Drug Interaction | Drug Names |
|---|---|
| Vitamin A/Selected Retinoids SEVERITY LEVEL: 1-Contraindicated Drug Combination: This drug combination is contraindicated and generally should not be dispensed or administered to the same patient. MECHANISM OF ACTION: The retinoids are structurally related to vitamin A. (1-6) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of retinoids with vitamin A supplements may result in signs of vitamin A toxicity.(1-6) Symptoms of vitamin A toxicity include nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, weakness, dry or itchy skin or lips, irritability, and hair loss. PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer of acitretin states that concomitant use of vitamin A supplements should be avoided.(1) The manufacturer of bexarotene states that patients should be advised to limit vitamin A supplements. In clinical studies, patients were advised to limit their vitamin A intake to less than or equal to 15,000 International Units/day.(2) The manufacturer of isotretinoin states that patients should be advised against taking vitamin A supplements.(3) The manufacturer of palovarotene states that concomitant use of vitamin A must be avoided.(4) The manufacturer of tretinoin states that tretinoin must not be administered in combination with vitamin A.(5) The UK manufacturer of alitretinoin states that tretinoin must not be administered in combination with vitamin A.(6) DISCUSSION: The retinoids are structurally related to vitamin A. The concurrent use of retinoids with vitamin A may result in signs and symptoms of vitamin A toxicity.(1-6) |

There are 2 severe interactions.
These drug interactions can produce serious consequences in most patients. Actions required for severe interactions include, but are not limited to, discontinuing one or both agents, adjusting dosage, altering administration scheduling, and providing additional patient monitoring. Review the full interaction monograph for more information.
| Drug Interaction | Drug Names |
|---|---|
| Selected Anticoagulants (Vitamin K antagonists)/Vitamin K SEVERITY LEVEL: 2-Severe Interaction: Action is required to reduce the risk of severe adverse interaction. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Anticoagulants interfere with the activation of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors. Vitamin K administration may reverse this effect. CLINICAL EFFECTS: The pharmacological effect of anticoagulants may be reversed resulting in thrombus formation. PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving anticoagulants should avoid eating unusual increases in foods high in vitamin K content. The time of highest risk for a coumarin-type drug interaction is when the precipitant drug is initiated or discontinued. Contact the prescriber before initiating, altering the dose or discontinuing either drug. DISCUSSION: Numerous reports have demonstrated that vitamin K interferes with the hypoprothrombinemic effects of anticoagulants. However, reports of clinically important consequences are uncommon. A clearer understanding of the mechanism by which these drugs act has made it possible to use vitamin K to control bleeding side effects of warfarin therapy. One should be aware of the vitamin K content of enteral feeding products being administered to patients on anticoagulant therapy. Prothrombin time should be monitored when these products are given. |
ANISINDIONE, DICUMAROL, PHENINDIONE, WARFARIN SODIUM |
| Erdafitinib/Serum Phosphate Level-Altering Drugs SEVERITY LEVEL: 2-Severe Interaction: Action is required to reduce the risk of severe adverse interaction. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Medications that alter serum phosphate may interfere with interpretation of phosphate levels that are needed to determine initial erdafitinib dose.(1) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Serum phosphate levels that are elevated by concomitant medications may result in an inappropriately low dose and decreased effectiveness of erdafitinib. Serum phosphate levels that are decreased by concomitant medications may result in an inappropriately high dose and increased toxicity from erdafitinib. PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer of erdafitinib states that agents that alter serum phosphate levels should be avoided before the initial dose increase period for erdafitinib based on serum phosphate levels (days 14 to 21).(1) DISCUSSION: Concomitant administration of serum phosphate level-altering agents during the initial dose increase period of erdafitinib based on serum phosphate levels (days 14 to 21) may interfere with serum phospate levels and lead to incorrect dosing of erdafitinib.(1) Agents that may alter serum phosphate levels linked to this monograph include: aluminum carbonate, aluminum hydroxide, calcium acetate, calcium carbonate, calcium citrate, cod liver oil, ferric citrate, lanthanum, magnesium carbonate, magnesium hydroxide, potassium phosphate, sevelamer, sodium phosphate, sucroferric oxyhydroxide, tenapanor, and vitamin D.(1) |

There are 3 moderate interactions.
The clinician should assess the patient’s characteristics and take action as needed. Actions required for moderate interactions include, but are not limited to, discontinuing one or both agents, adjusting dosage, altering administration.
| Drug Interaction | Drug Names |
|---|---|
| Cholinergics/Quinidine SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: The anticholinergic properties of quinidine may oppose cholinergic drug effects. CLINICAL EFFECTS: Quinidine may antagonize the effects of cholinergic drugs in the treatment of myasthenia gravis. Cardiac slowing secondary to cholinergic drugs would tend to be prevented by quinidine. PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: If both drugs are administered, observe the myasthenic patient for signs and symptoms of the disease. DISCUSSION: Caution is warranted in co-administration of these drugs due to their opposing pharmacologic properties. |

| Deferoxamine/Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: It is believed that ascorbic acid increases the iron available for chelation from an labile intracellular iron pool. Ascorbic acid may then facilitate iron-induced oxidative tissue damage.(1) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Dietary ascorbic acid may increase the absorption of dietary iron. Supplemental ascorbic acid therapy given during chelation therapy may improve iron output;(1-9) however, excessive dosages may result in cardiac toxicity from iron-induced oxidative tissue damage.(1,2,11-13) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Ascorbic acid intake is often restricted in patients with iron overload; however, it has been used in conjunction with deferoxamine to increase iron excretion.(2) Supplemental ascorbic acid therapy should only be initiated after one month of deferoxamine therapy. Ascorbic acid therapy should only be given in patients receiving deferoxamine regularly and the dose should be given after the infusion has started. The dosage of ascorbic acid should be limited to 50 mg daily in children under 10 years of age; 100 mg daily in older children; and 200 mg daily, in divided doses, in adults.(2) Cardiac function should be monitored in patients receiving concurrent therapy. Discontinue ascorbic acid therapy in patients who develop cardiac dysfunction.(2) DISCUSSION: Supplemental ascorbic acid therapy given during chelation therapy has been shown to improve iron output,(1-9) possibly by increasing iron available for chelation from an labile intracellular iron pool.(1) However, dosages in excess of 500 mg daily have been associated with cardiac dysfunction.(1,2,11-13) |
DEFEROXAMINE MESYLATE, DESFERAL MESYLATE |
| Pafolacianine/Folic Acid SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Folate, folic acid, and folate-containing supplements may reduce binding of pafolacianine to folate receptors expressed on ovarian cancer cells. CLINICAL EFFECTS: Folate, folic acid, and folate-containing supplements could reduce the detection of malignant lesions with pafolacianine. PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Avoid administration of folate, folic acid, or folate-containing supplements within 48 hours before administration of pafolacianine. DISCUSSION: Folate, folic acid, and folate-containing supplements may reduce binding of pafolacianine to folate receptors expressed on cancer cells, which could result in reduced detection of malignant lesions with pafolacianine. |
