The following dosing information is available for HYDROCORTISONE-PRAMOXINE (hydrocortisone acetate/pramoxine hcl):
Hydrocortisone and its acetate, buteprate, butyrate, and valerate esters are applied topically. Dermatologic preparations of the drugs are applied sparingly in thin films and are rubbed gently into the affected area 1-4 times daily. Rectal creams and ointments of the drugs are applied externally to the anal area.
Some commercially available creams may be applied externally to the anogenital areas. Nonprescription preparations of the drugs should not be used for self-medication for longer than 7 days; if the condition worsens or symptoms persist, the drug should be discontinued and a physician consulted. Nonprescription preparations of the drugs should not be used in children younger than 2 years of age unless directed and supervised by a physician.
For dermatoses of the scalp, the hair may be parted and a small amount of lotion applied directly to the affected area and rubbed gently into the scalp. Usual hair care should be maintained, but the lotion should not be washed out immediately after application. Alternatively, for dermatoses of the scalp, hydrocortisone aerosol is applied to the dry scalp after shampooing.
When the aerosol is used for other dermatoses, each 10-cm2 of affected area is sprayed for 1-2 seconds from a distance of about 15 cm 2 or 3 times daily.
Occlusive dressings may be used for severe or resistant dermatoses.
For use in the mouth, a small amount of 0.5% hydrocortisone acetate paste is pressed to the lesion without rubbing until a thin film develops. The paste is applied 2 or 3 times daily after meals and at bedtime.
If substantial regeneration or repair of the oral tissues does not occur after 7 days of treatment, further investigation of the etiology of the oral lesions should be undertaken.
Hydrocortisone is administered rectally as a retention enema, and hydrocortisone acetate is given rectally as a suppository or an aerosol foam suspension according to the manufacturers' instructions. Patients should be advised that hydrocortisone acetate suppositories may stain fabric so that they can take appropriate precautionary measures. For the adjunctive treatment of ulcerative colitis, 100 mg of hydrocortisone is administered nightly as a retention enema.
The patient should lie on his left side during and for 30 minutes after administration of the retention enema so that the drug will distribute throughout the left colon; the enema should be retained for at least 1 hour and preferably all night. Some clinicians administer 100 mg as a retention enema twice daily followed by 100 mg nightly when improvement occurs. The drug is usually given for 21 days or until clinical and proctologic remissions are achieved.
Clinical symptoms may improve in 3-5 days, followed by proctologic improvement; in some cases, 2-3 months of therapy may be required to attain a proctologic remission. Therapy with hydrocortisone retention enema should be discontinued if clinical or proctologic improvement does not occur within 2-3 weeks. Following treatment for longer than 21 days, therapy with hydrocortisone enema should be withdrawn gradually by giving the drug every other night for 2-3 weeks and then discontinuing it.
In patients with ulcerative proctitis of the distal rectum who cannot retain corticosteroid enemas, 90 mg of hydrocortisone acetate (1 applicatorful of a 10% aerosol foam suspension) may be given rectally 1 or 2 times daily for 2-3 weeks and then, if necessary, every other day until clinical and proctologic improvements occur; symptoms may improve within 5-7 days. For the adjunctive treatment of ulcerative colitis of the rectum and other inflammatory conditions of the anorectum, 25 mg of hydrocortisone acetate as a suppository may be administered rectally in the morning and at night for 2 weeks; in severe proctitis, 25 mg may be given 3 times daily or 50 mg may be given twice daily. For the adjunctive treatment of postirradiation or factitial proctitis, therapy is generally continued for 6-8 weeks or less if an adequate response is attained.
Alternatively, for the symptomatic treatment of internal hemorrhoids and the adjunctive treatment of other inflammatory conditions of the anorectum, 10 mg of hydrocortisone acetate as a suppository may be administered rectally in the morning and at night for 2-6 days.
For self-medication for the temporary relief of pain and itching associated with lip or skin irritations in adults and children 2 years of age and older, pramoxine hydrochloride 1% gel, lotion, ointment, or solution is applied topically to the affected area up to 3 or 4 times daily. For use in children younger than 2 years of age, a pediatrician should be consulted.
For self-medication for the temporary relief of pain, soreness, burning, itching, or discomfort caused by hemorrhoids or other anorectal disorders in adults and children 12 years of age and older, pramoxine hydrochloride 1% aerosol foam, cream, ointment, or pledget is applied topically to the affected area up to 4 or 5 times daily or after each bowel movement. The manufacturers state that this dosage should not be exceeded unless directed by a clinician. For use in children younger than 12 years of age, a clinician should be consulted.
For self-medication for the management of anogenital pruritus, pramoxine hydrochloride 1% pledget is applied to the external vaginal area up to 3-4 times daily. For use in children younger than 12 years of age, a clinician should be consulted.
Some commercially available creams may be applied externally to the anogenital areas. Nonprescription preparations of the drugs should not be used for self-medication for longer than 7 days; if the condition worsens or symptoms persist, the drug should be discontinued and a physician consulted. Nonprescription preparations of the drugs should not be used in children younger than 2 years of age unless directed and supervised by a physician.

The following drug interaction information is available for HYDROCORTISONE-PRAMOXINE (hydrocortisone acetate/pramoxine hcl):
There are 1 contraindications.
These drug combinations generally should not be dispensed or administered to the same patient. A manufacturer label warning that indicates the contraindication warrants inclusion of a drug combination in this category, regardless of clinical evidence or lack of clinical evidence to support the contraindication.
| Drug Interaction | Drug Names |
|---|---|
| Desmopressin/Glucocorticoids 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: Glucocorticoids increase the risk of hyponatremia.(1-4) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of glucocorticoids may increase the risk of hyponatremia with desmopressin.(1-4) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Predisposing factors for hyponatremia include: polydipsia, renal impairment (eGFR < 50 ml/min/1.73m2), illnesses that can cause fluid/electrolyte imbalances, age >=65, medications that cause water retention and/or increase the risk of hyponatremia (carbamazepine, chlorpromazine, lamotrigine, loop diuretics, NSAIDs, opioids, SSRIs, thiazide diuretics, and/or tricyclic antidepressants). PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The concurrent use of systemic or inhaled glucocorticoids with desmopressin is contraindicated.(1-4) Desmopressin may be initiated 3 days or 5 half-lives after glucocorticoid discontinuation, whichever is longer. If concurrent use is deemed medically necessary, make sure serum sodium levels are normal before beginning therapy and consider using the desmopressin nasal 0.83 mcg dose. Consider measuring serum sodium levels more frequently than the recommended intervals of: within 7 days of concurrent therapy initiation, one month after concurrent therapy initiation and periodically during treatment. Counsel patients to report symptoms of hyponatremia, which may include: headache, nausea/vomiting, feeling restless, fatigue, drowsiness, dizziness, muscle cramps, changes in mental state (confusion, decreased awareness/alertness), seizures, coma, and trouble breathing. Counsel patients to limit the amount of fluids they drink in the evening and night-time and to stop taking desmopressin if they develop a stomach/intestinal virus with nausea/vomiting or any nose problems (blockage, stuffy/runny nose, drainage).(1) DISCUSSION: In clinical trials of desmopressin for the treatment of nocturia, 4 of 5 patients who developed severe hyponatremia (serum sodium <= 125 mmol/L) were taking systemic or inhaled glucocorticoids. Three of these patients were also taking NSAIDs and one was receiving a thiazide diuretic.(2) Drugs associated with hyponatremia may increase the risk, including loop diuretics, carbamazepine, chlorpromazine, glucocorticoids, lamotrigine, NSAIDs, opioids, SSRIs, thiazide diuretics, and/or tricyclic antidepressants.(1,3-4) |

| Drug Interaction | Drug Names |
|---|---|
| T Cell Immunotherapies/Corticosteroids SEVERITY LEVEL: 2-Severe Interaction: Action is required to reduce the risk of severe adverse interaction. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Corticosteroids suppress the immune system. Concurrent use or premedication with a prophylactic corticosteroid may interfere with the activity of CAR-T cell immunotherapies.(1-6) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Corticosteroids may decrease the efficacy of CAR-T cell immunotherapies.(1-6) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The manufacturers recommend avoiding concurrent or prophylactic use of corticosteroids as a premedication prior to infusion of CAR-T cell immunotherapy. Corticosteroids may be used and are recommended in the case of a life-threatening emergency, including the management of cytokine release syndrome or neurological toxicities.(1-6) DISCUSSION: Corticosteroids may decrease the efficacy of CAR-T cell immunotherapy.(1-6) The manufacturers recommend avoiding concurrent or prophylactic use of corticosteroids as a premedication prior to infusion of CAR-T cell immunotherapy.(1-6) Corticosteroids may be used and are recommended in the case of a life-threatening emergency, including the management of cytokine release syndrome or neurological toxicities.(1-6) |

| Long-acting Bupivacaine/Local Anesthetics SEVERITY LEVEL: 2-Severe Interaction: Action is required to reduce the risk of severe adverse interaction. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Concurrent use of other local anesthetics or use of other local anesthetics within 96 hours following long-acting bupivacaine may result in additive neurologic and cardiovascular effects. Use of articaine, benzocaine, bupivacaine, lidocaine, mepivacaine, prilocaine, procaine, ropivacaine, and tetracaine may also increase the risk of methemoglobinemia.(1,2) Non-liposomal bupivacaine may impact the pharmacokinetic and/or physicochemical properties of the liposomal formulation when administered in the same syringe or used simultaneously unless the ratio of mg of non-liposomal bupivacaine to mg of bupivacaine liposomal does not exceed 1:2.(1) Local anesthetics other than bupivacaine may trigger the immediate release of bupivacaine from the liposomal formulation when administered together locally.(1) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent or use of local anesthetics with 96 hours of use of long-acting bupivacaine may result in neurologic and cardiovascular toxicity. Use of articaine, benzocaine, bupivacaine, lidocaine, mepivacaine, prilocaine, procaine, ropivacaine, and tetracaine may also result in methemoglobinemia.(1,2) Non-liposomal bupivacaine may impact the pharmacokinetic and/or physicochemical properties of the liposomal formulation when administered in the same syringe or used simultaneously unless the ratio of mg of non-liposomal bupivacaine to mg of bupivacaine liposomal does not exceed 1:2.(1) Local anesthetics other than bupivacaine may trigger the immediate release of bupivacaine from the liposomal formulation when administered together locally.(1) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Use of additional agents that are associated with methemoglobinemia may further increase the risk of methemoglobinemia.(1) Patients who are at increased risk of developing methemoglobinemia include those with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, congenital or idiopathic methemoglobinemia, cardiac or pulmonary compromise, infants under 6 months of age, and concurrent exposure to oxidizing agents or their metabolites are more susceptible to developing clinical manifestations of the condition. If local anesthetics must be used in these patients, close monitoring for symptoms and signs of methemoglobinemia is recommended.(1) PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Avoid the use of other local anesthetics within 96 hours following the administration of long-acting bupivacaine. In patients for whom use is required, monitor for neurologic and cardiovascular effects. Also monitor for methemoglobinemia with use of articaine, benzocaine, bupivacaine, lidocaine, mepivacaine, prilocaine, procaine, ropivacaine, and tetracaine.(1,2) Non-liposomal bupivacaine may be administered in the same syringe as bupivacaine liposomal or injected immediately before bupivacaine liposomal as long as the ratio of mg of non-liposomal bupivacaine to mg of bupivacaine liposomal does not exceed 1:2.(1) Lidocaine may be administered 20 minutes or more prior to bupivacaine. It is unknown if other local anesthetics may be used without compromising the release characteristic of bupivacaine liposomal.(1) DISCUSSION: Concurrent use of other local anesthetics or use of other local anesthetics within 96 hours following long-acting bupivacaine may result in additive neurologic and cardiovascular effects. Use of articaine, benzocaine, bupivacaine, lidocaine, mepivacaine, prilocaine, procaine, ropivacaine, and tetracaine may also increase the risk of methemoglobinemia.(1,2) Non-liposome bupivacaine may impact the pharmacokinetic and/or physicochemical properties of the liposomal formulation when administered in the same syringe or used simultaneously unless the ratio of mg of non-liposomal bupivacaine to mg of bupivacaine liposomal does not exceed 1:2.(1) Local anesthetics other than bupivacaine may trigger the immediate release of bupivacaine from the liposomal formulation when administered together locally. Lidocaine may be administered 20 minutes or more prior to bupivacaine. It is unknown if other local anesthetics may be used without compromising the release characteristic of bupivacaine liposomal.(1) |

There are 2 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 |
|---|---|
| Gallium Ga 68 Dotatate/Corticosteroids SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: High-dose corticosteroids may down-regulate somatostatin subtype 2 receptors, the main binding site for gallium Ga 68 dotatate.(1) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Repeated use of high doses of corticosteroids before use of gallium Ga 68 dotatate may result in false negative imaging results.(1) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: In patients receiving high-dose corticosteroids prior to use of gallium Ga 68 dotatate, interpret imaging results with caution and in the context of the patient's clinical presentation. DISCUSSION: Repeated use of high doses of corticosteroids before use of gallium Ga 68 dotatate may result in false negative imaging results due to down-regulation of the somatostatin subtype 2 receptor.(1) |
GALLIUM GA-68 DOTATOC, NETSPOT |
| Selected Corticosteroids/Levoketoconazole SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Levoketoconazole may inhibit the CYP3A4 mediated metabolism of some corticosteroids, resulting in increased systemic exposure. Levoketoconazole may also suppress endogenous cortisol output. Levoketoconazole is the enantiomer of ketoconazole. CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of levoketoconazole may result in elevated levels of and effects from the corticosteroid, including Cushing syndrome. These effects have been seen with systemic as well as inhaled corticosteroids. PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Patients should be carefully monitored with concurrent administration of these agents, or when levoketoconazole is added to corticosteroid therapy. The dose of the corticosteroid may need to be adjusted or alternative therapy considered. DISCUSSION: The concurrent use of ketoconazole has been shown to increase budesonide area-under-curve (AUC) by eight-fold. In a study in eight healthy subjects, the simultaneous administration of ketoconazole increased budesonide AUC by 6.5-fold. Administering the two agents 12 hours apart increased budesonide AUC by 3.8-fold. In a study in 6 healthy subjects, pretreatment with ketoconazole (200 mg daily) increased the AUC of a single intravenous dose of methylprednisolone (20 mg) by 135% and decreased its clearance by 60%. Concurrent ketoconazole also increased the reduction in 24-hour cortisol AUC and suppressed morning cortisol concentrations. In a study in 8 healthy subjects, ketoconazole decreased the clearance of methylprednisolone by 46% and increased mean residence time by 37%. In a randomized, cross-over study in 6 healthy subjects, pretreatment with ketoconazole (200 mg daily for 6 days) had no effect on the pharmacokinetics of a single intravenous dose of prednisolone (14.8 mg). In a study, concurrent oral ketoconazole increased the AUC of des-ciclesonide from orally inhaled ciclesonide by 3.6-fold. There were no changes in ciclesonide levels. In a study in 24 healthy subjects, subjects were randomized to receive either ketoconazole (200 mg BID) or placebo on Days 4-9 of a a 9 day course of mometasone (400 mcg BID). No subject had mometasone levels greater than 150 pcg/ml on Day 3. Four of 12 subjects who received ketoconazole had mometasone Cmax levels greater than 200 mcg/ml on Day 9. Plasma cortisol levels appeared to decrease as well. In a cross-over study in 15 healthy subjects, subjects were randomized to receive fluticasone furoate and vilanterol on days 5-11 with either ketoconazole (200mg once daily) or placebo for days 1-11 with a washout period of 7-14 days. Fluticasone furoate AUC was increased by 36%, Cmax was increased by 33%, and decreased systemic cortisol levels by 27%. There were no effects on heart rate and blood potassium levels. There was a small increase in QTc which was 7.6ms greater when compared to placebo; however, ketoconazole has been reported to increase QTc by 5-6ms. Vilanterol AUC was increased by 65% and Cmax was increased by 22%. There were no effects on heart rate and blood potassium levels. No serious adverse events occurred and no subjects withdrew from the study due to adverse events. The most common adverse event reported was headache. Coadministration of orally inhaled fluticasone (1000 mcg) and ketoconazole (200 mg once daily) resulted in a 1.9-fold increase in plasma fluticasone exposure and a 45% decrease in plasma cortisol AUC. |
