Drug overview for DIALYVITE 800 WITH ZINC 15 (vitamin b complex with vitamin c/folic acid/zinc citrate):
Generic name: vitamin B complex with vitamin C/folic acid/zinc citrate
Drug class: Folic Acid
Therapeutic class: Electrolyte Balance-Nutritional Products
Folic acid is a water-soluble, B complex vitamin.
Numerous multivitamin preparations are marketed, with little standardization of formulas. Useful multivitamin preparations should contain only essential vitamins (those for which there is a recommended daily dietary allowance (RDA)). (See Dosage and Administration.) Preparations containing iron and/or calcium supplements may be useful in some patients (e.g., pregnant or lactating women) but other essential minerals are usually obtained from the diet.
The addition of agents such as liver, yeast, and wheat germ to vitamin preparations offers no advantage over pure chemical ingredients, and inclusion of nonessential agents such as choline, bioflavonoids, inositol, betaine, lecithin, and methionine is unwarranted. Combinations of vitamins and other drugs such as hormones are irrational and should not be used. Folic acid is used for the treatment of megaloblastic and macrocytic anemias resulting from folate deficiency.
The drug is usually indicated in the treatment of nutritional macrocytic anemia; megaloblastic anemias of pregnancy, infancy, and childhood; and megaloblastic anemia associated with primary liver disease, alcoholism and alcoholic cirrhosis, intestinal strictures, anastomoses, or sprue. Folate deficiency may also result from increased loss of folate secondary to renal dialysis or the administration of some drugs such as phenytoin, primidone, barbiturates, methotrexate, nitrofurantoin, or sulfasalazine. Folic acid is not effective in the treatment of normocytic, refractory, or aplastic anemias or, when used alone, in the treatment of pernicious anemia.
Folic acid antagonists (e.g., methotrexate, pyrimethamine, trimethoprim) inhibit folic acid reductases and prevent the formation of tetrahydrofolic acid. Therefore, folic acid is not effective as an antidote following overdosage of these drugs, and leucovorin calcium must be used. In large doses, folic acid is used in the treatment of tropical sprue.
In patients with this disease, the drug appears to exert a beneficial effect on the underlying mucosal abnormality as well as to correct folate deficiency. Although prophylactic administration of folic acid is not required in most individuals, supplemental folic acid may be required to prevent deficiency of the vitamin in patients with conditions that increase folic acid requirements such as pregnancy, nursing, or chronic hemolytic anemia. In some patients, such as those with nutritional megaloblastic anemia associated with vitamin B12 deficiency or tropical or nontropical sprue, a simultaneous deficiency of folic acid and cyanocobalamin may exist, and combined therapy may be warranted. Likewise, combined folic acid and iron therapy may be indicated for prevention or treatment of megaloblastic anemia associated with iron deficiency as may occur in conditions such as sprue, megaloblastic anemia of pregnancy, and megaloblastic anemia of infants.

The following dosing information is available for DIALYVITE 800 WITH ZINC 15 (vitamin b complex with vitamin c/folic acid/zinc citrate):
Dosage of folic acid injection (sodium folate) is expressed in terms of folic acid. In general, although patient response to folic acid therapy depends on the degree and nature of the deficiency, once proper corrective measures are undertaken, folate-deficient patients generally respond rapidly. During the first 24 hours of treatment, the patient experiences an improved sense of well-being, and within 48 hours, the bone marrow begins to become normoblastic. Reticulocytosis generally begins within 2-5 days following initiation of folic acid therapy.
Vitamins are usually administered orally; however, the drugs may be given parenterally in patients in whom oral administration is not feasible, including those receiving total parenteral nutrition. For IV administration, vitamins should be diluted according to the manufacturers' recommendations. Multivitamin injections are reportedly incompatible with IV solutions containing various drugs.
Published data are too varied and/or limited to permit generalizations, and specialized references should be consulted for specific compatibility information. Folic acid is usually administered orally. When oral administration is not feasible or when malabsorption is suspected, the drug may be administered by deep IM, subcutaneous, or IV injection. However, most patients with malabsorption are able to absorb oral folic acid.

| Drug Interaction | Drug Names |
|---|---|
| Penicillamine, Oral/Polyvalent Cations SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Penicillamine chelates with polyvalent cations such as aluminum, calcium, iron, magnesium, and zinc in the GI tract reducing the absorption of the penicillamine. CLINICAL EFFECTS: Reduced (to 30% of fasting) bioavailability of penicillamine with decreased pharmacologic response. PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: In order to assure systemic absorption and maximal effectiveness from penicillamine, counsel patient to separate penicillamine by at least 1 hour before or 1 hours after any medications or products containing polyvalent cations such as antacids or mineral supplements. Monitor clinical status for decreased effectiveness and adjust the penicillamine dose if necessary. DISCUSSION: Clinical studies with polyvalent cations have not been conducted. Multivitamins with low doses of cations including iron and zinc may decrease penicillamine absorption so insure patient is aware of the risks. |
CUPRIMINE, D-PENAMINE, DEPEN, PENICILLAMINE, PENICILLAMINE(D-) |
| Oral Iron Supplements/Antacids and Selected Minerals SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Some antacids may bind to iron, preventing its absorption. Alterations in gastric pH by antacids may also play a role. Iron may bind to other minerals such as calcium, manganese, tin, and zinc in the GI tract. CLINICAL EFFECTS: Simultaneous administration of an antacid or minerals may decrease the absorption of orally administered iron. PREDISPOSING FACTORS: The interaction with some combinations may be affected by the presence or absence of food. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Iron supplements should not be taken within 1 hour before or 2 hours after antacids, calcium, manganese, or zinc.(1) Some vitamin preparations may contain sufficient quantities of calcium and/or magnesium salts with antacid properties to interact as well. DISCUSSION: Magnesium hydroxide has been shown to inhibit the absorption of elemental iron,(2) although other studies have shown conflicting results.(3,4) Sodium bicarbonate has been shown to decrease the absorption of iron by 50%.(3) In a study in 61 healthy subjects, calcium citrate, calcium carbonate, and calcium phosphate inhibited iron absorption when taken with food. However, in the fasted state, calcium carbonate had no effect on iron absorption. In the fasted state, calcium citrate and calcium phosphate decreased iron absorption by 49% and 62%, respectively,(6) In a study in 23 healthy subjects, calcium acetate and calcium carbonate decreased the area-under-curve (AUC) of elemental iron (65 mg) by 27% and 19%, respectively.(7) In a study, manganese decreased iron absorption. A ratio of 5:1 of zinc:iron decreased iron absorption by 56%.(8) In a study, inorganic iron decreased zinc absorption.(9) In another study, ferrous sulfate decreased the absorption of zinc sulfate in a concentration dependent manner; however, heme chloride had no effect on zinc sulfate.(10) In a study in premature infants, administration of liquid zinc and iron supplements between feedings decreased iron uptake; however, no effect was seen when the supplements were mixed with feedings.(11) One or more of the drug pairs linked to this monograph have been included in a list of interactions that could be considered for classification as "non-interruptive" in EHR systems. This DDI subset was vetted by an expert panel commissioned by the U.S. Office of the National Coordinator (ONC) for Health Information Technology. |

| Eltrombopag/Polyvalent Cations SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Eltrombopag chelates polyvalent cations such as aluminum, calcium, iron, magnesium, selenium, and zinc.(1) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Simultaneous administration of eltrombopag and polyvalent cations may decrease the absorption and clinical effects of eltrombopag. PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US manufacturer of eltrombopag states that it should be administered at least 2 hours before or 4 hours after any medications or products containing polyvalent cations such as antacids or mineral supplements.(1) DISCUSSION: In a crossover study in 25 healthy subjects, administration of eltrombopag with an antacid (1524 mg aluminum hydroxide/1425 mg magnesium carbonate/sodium alginate) decreased eltrombopag levels by 70%.(1,2) |
ALVAIZ, PROMACTA |
| Deferiprone/Aluminum, Iron, Zinc SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Deferiprone chelates polyvalent cations such as aluminum, iron, and zinc.(1) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Deferiprone chelation with oral aluminum, iron or zinc containing products in the gastrointestinal tract may decrease the amount of free deferiprone available for systemic iron chelation. Zinc supplements prescribed to counteract deferiprone-induced zinc deficiency may not be effective if taken near time of deferiprone administration. PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US manufacturer recommends at least a four hour interval between deferiprone dose and administration of aluminum, iron or zinc containing medications or supplements.(1) Avoid use of iron-containing vitamins or nutritional supplements in patients who require chelation therapy for iron overload. DISCUSSION: The US manufacturer has not studied this interaction. The recommendation to separate deferiprone and polyvalent cation doses by at least four hours is based upon the deferiprone mechanism of action.(1) |

| Elvitegravir/Selected Oral Cations SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: The exact mechanism is unknown, but aluminum, calcium, iron, magnesium, sucralfate, and zinc may bind to elvitegravir in GI tract. CLINICAL EFFECTS: Simultaneous administration or administration of products containing aluminum, calcium, iron, magnesium, and/or sucralfate may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of elvitegravir, as well as the development of resistance.(1) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Separate the administration of elvitegravir and products containing aluminum, calcium, iron, magnesium, and/or sucralfate by at least 2 hours.(1) Some vitamin preparations may contain sufficient quantities of calcium and/or magnesium salts with antacid properties to interact as well. DISCUSSION: Administration of an antacid (exact formulation not stated) 2 hours before elvitegravir (50 mg) decreased the maximum concentration (Cmax), area-under-curve (AUC), or minimum concentration (Cmin) of elvitegravir by 18%, 15%, and 10%, respectively.(1) Administration of an antacid 2 hours after elvitegravir (50 mg) decreased the Cmax, AUC, or Cmin of elvitegravir by 21%, 20%, and 20%, respectively.(1) Administration of an antacid 4 hours before elvitegravir (50 mg) decreased the Cmax and AUC of elvitegravir by 5%, and 4%, respectively.(1) Administration of an antacid 4 hours before elvitegravir (50 mg) decreased both the Cmax and AUC of elvitegravir by 2%.(1) |
GENVOYA, STRIBILD |
| Dolutegravir/Selected Oral Cations SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Aluminum, calcium, iron, lanthanum, magnesium, sucralfate, and zinc may form chelation compounds with dolutegravir.(1) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Simultaneous administration or administration of products containing aluminum, calcium, iron, lanthanum, magnesium, and/or sucralfate close to the administration time of dolutegravir may result in decreased absorption and clinical effectiveness of dolutegravir.(1) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: If possible, avoid concurrent therapy with dolutegravir and cation-containing products. If it is necessary to use these agents concurrently, dolutegravir should be administered 2 hours before or 6 hours after taking these medications.(1) Alternatively, dolutegravir and supplements containing calcium or iron can be taken together with food.(1) DISCUSSION: In a study in 16 subjects, the administration of an antacid (Maalox - aluminum and magnesium hydroxide) simultaneously with dolutegravir (50 mg single dose) decreased the maximum concentration (Cmax), area-under-curve (AUC), and minimum concentration (Cmin) of dolutegravir by 72%, 74%, and 74%, respectively.(1) In a study in 16 subjects, the administration of an antacid (Maalox - aluminum and magnesium hydroxide) 2 hours after dolutegravir (50 mg single dose) decreased dolutegravir Cmax, AUC, and Cmin by 18%, 26%, and 30%, respectively.(1) In a study in 16 subjects, the administration of a multiple vitamin (One-A-Day) simultaneously with dolutegravir (50 mg single dose) decreased dolutegravir Cmax, AUC, and Cmin by 35%, 33%, and 32%, respectively.(1) |

| Dolutegravir-Rilpivirine/Selected Oral Cations; Antacids; H2 Antagonists SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Aluminum, calcium, iron, lanthanum, magnesium, sucralfate, and zinc may form chelation compounds with dolutegravir.(1) Rilpivirine requires an acidic medium for absorption. Antacid or H2 antagonist induced decrease in gastric pH may result in decrease in rilpivirine absorption.(1) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Simultaneous administration or administration of products containing aluminum, calcium, iron, lanthanum, magnesium, and/or sucralfate close to the administration time of dolutegravir may result in decreased absorption and clinical effectiveness of dolutegravir.(1) Simultaneous administration of an antacid or a H2 antagonist may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of rilpivirine, as well as the development of resistance.(1) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: If possible, avoid concurrent therapy with dolutegravir-rilpivirine and cation-containing products. If it is necessary to use these agents concurrently, dolutegravir-rilpivirine should be administered 4 hours before or 6 hours after taking these medications.(1) Alternatively, dolutegravir-rilpivirine and supplements containing calcium or iron can be taken together with food.(1) In patients maintained on dolutegravir-rilpivirine, administer dolutegravir-rilpivirine at least 4 hours before or 6 hours after antacids .(1) In patients maintained on dolutegravir-rilpivirine, administer dolutegravir-rilpivirine at least 4 hours before or 12 hours after H2 antagonists.(1) Concurrent use of proton pump inhibitors will dolutegravir-rilpivirine is contraindicated.(1) DISCUSSION: In a study in 16 subjects, the administration of an antacid (Maalox - aluminum and magnesium hydroxide) simultaneously with dolutegravir (50 mg single dose) decreased the maximum concentration (Cmax), area-under-curve (AUC), and minimum concentration (Cmin) of dolutegravir by 72%, 74%, and 74%, respectively.(1) In a study in 16 subjects, the administration of an antacid (Maalox - aluminum and magnesium hydroxide) 2 hours after dolutegravir (50 mg single dose) decreased dolutegravir Cmax, AUC, and Cmin by 18%, 26%, and 30%, respectively.(1) In a study in 16 subjects, the administration of a multiple vitamin (One-A-Day) simultaneously with dolutegravir (50 mg single dose) decreased dolutegravir Cmax, AUC, and Cmin by 35%, 33%, and 32%, respectively.(1) In a study in 16 subjects, omeprazole (20 mg daily) decreased the Cmax, AUC, and Cmin of rilpivirine (150 mg daily) by 40%, 40%, and 33%, respectively. The Cmax and AUC of omeprazole decreased by 14% and 14%, respectively.(1) In a study in 24 subjects, famotidine (40 mg single dose) administered 12 hours before a single dose of rilpivirine (150 mg) had no significant effect on rilpivirine Cmax or AUC.(1) In a study in 23 subjects, famotidine (40 mg single dose) administered 2 hours before a single dose of rilpivirine (150 mg) decreased the rilpivirine Cmax and AUC by 85% and 76%, respectively.(1) In a study in 24 subjects, famotidine (40 mg single dose) administered 4 hours before a single dose of rilpivirine (150 mg) increased the rilpivirine Cmax and AUC by 21% and 13%, respectively.(1) |

MECHANISM OF ACTION: Cabotegravir chelates polyvalent cations such as aluminum, calcium, iron, magnesium, selenium, and zinc.(1) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Simultaneous administration of cabotegravir and polyvalent cations may decrease the absorption and clinical effects of cabotegravir.(1) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US manufacturer of cabotegravir states that it should be administered at least 2 hours before or 4 hours after any medications or products containing polyvalent cations such as antacids or mineral supplements.(1) DISCUSSION: Clinical studies have not been conducted. Prescribing information states cabotegravir levels may be decreased when coadministered with antacids containing polyvalent cations (examples include aluminum or magnesium hydroxide, calcium carbonate) suggesting cabotegravir is susceptible to chelation.(1) |
VOCABRIA |
| 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. |
CYTALUX |
| Vadadustat/Polyvalent Cations and Phosphate Binders SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Vadadustat may form a chelate with iron supplements, phosphate binders, and other medicinal products whose primary component consists of polyvalent cations such as aluminum, calcium, magnesium, selenium, and zinc.(1) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Simultaneous administration of vadadustat and polyvalent cations and phosphate binders decreases the exposure and effectiveness of vadadustat.(1) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer of vadadustat states that it should be administered at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after any medications or products whose primary component consists of iron, phosphate binders and polyvalent cations.(1) DISCUSSION: Two studies evaluating the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of a single oral dose of vadadustat coadministered with a phosphate binder or iron supplement were conducted in healthy adult participants. Vadadustat exposure was reduced by coadministration with sevelamer carbonate, calcium acetate, ferric citrate, and ferrous sulfate. Geometric least squares mean ratios for area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) were reduced 37% to 55% by phosphate binders and 46% by ferrous sulfate. However, when vadadustat was administered 1 hour before phosphate binders, 90% confidence intervals for vadadustat exposure were within the no-effect boundaries of +50% to -33%, indicating that drug-drug interactions can be reduced by administering vadadustat 1 hour before phosphate binders.(2) |
