Interactions from the label
Moderate interactions (15)
Hypotension Adenosine injection is a potent peripheral vasodilator and can induce significant hypotension. (Adenosine label, Warnings and precautions)
Nonetheless, caution, as with any other peripheral vasodilator, should be exercised when administering amlodipine, particularly in patients with severe aortic stenosis. (Amlodipine and valsartan label, Warnings and precautions)
When vasodilators are used in combination, an additive effect on blood pressure may be anticipated. (Avanafil label, Warnings and precautions)
Valvular Stenosis There is concern, on theoretical grounds, that patients with aortic stenosis might be at particular risk of decreased coronary perfusion when treated with vasodilators because they do not develop as much afterload reduction as others. (Captopril label, Precautions)
Dopamine D2 Receptor Antagonists and Isoniazid Dopamine D2 receptor antagonists (e.g., phenothiazines, butyrophenones, risperidone, metoclopramide, papaverine) and isoniazid may reduce the effectiveness of levodopa. (Carbidopa and levodopa label, Drug interactions)
• Dopamine D2 receptor antagonists, isoniazid, phenytoin, papaverine and iron salts: may reduce efficacy of Carbidopa, levodopa and entacapone tablets ( 7.5 , 7.6 , 7.7 , 7.8 , 7.9 ) • Drugs that interfere with biliary excretion, glucuronidation and intestinal beta-glucuronidase: dose adjustment of Carbidopa, levodopa and entacapone tablets may be required (… (Carbidopa, levodopa, and entacapone label, Drug interactions)
• Co-administration with Other Vasodilators or Negative Chronotropic Agents : Use with caution due to additive pharmacodynamic effects. (Dexmedetomidine label, Warnings and precautions)
Additional reductions in blood pressure may occur when VELETRI is administered with diuretics, antihypertensive agents, or other vasodilators. (Epoprostenol label, Drug interactions)
Drug Interactions The vasodilating effects of isosorbide dinitrate may be additive with those of other vasodilators. (Isosorbide dinitrate label, Drug interactions)
The vasodilating effects of isosorbide mononitrate may be additive with those of other vasodilators. (Isosorbide mononitrate label, Drug interactions)
Nifedipine is a vasodilator, and co-administration of other drugs affecting blood pressure may result in pharmacodynamic interactions. (Nifedipine label, Drug interactions)
Blood Pressure Decreases Patients with left ventricular outflow obstruction (e.g., aortic stenosis, idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis) and those with severely impaired autonomic control of blood pressure can be sensitive to the actions of vasodilators, including SILDENAFIL ORAL FILM. (Sildenafil label, Warnings and precautions)
When vasodilators are used in combination, an additive effect on blood pressure may be anticipated. (Tadalafil label, Warnings and precautions)
When vasodilators are used in combination, an additive effect on blood pressure may be anticipated. (Vardenafil label, Warnings and precautions)
Antihypertensive Agents Verapamil administered concomitantly with oral antihypertensive agents (e.g., vasodilators, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, diuretics, beta blockers) will usually have an additive effect on lowering blood pressure. (Verapamil label, Drug interactions)
Minor mentions (7)
Phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) Inhibitors: PDE5-inhibitors are also vasodilators. (Alfuzosin label, Warnings and precautions)
- CarbidopaMinor
In addition, the beneficial effects of levodopa in Parkinson’s disease have been reported to be reversed by phenytoin and papaverine. (Carbidopa label, Drug interactions)
Alpha-adrenergic antagonists and PDE-5 inhibitors are both vasodilators that can lower blood pressure. (Dutasteride and tamsulosin label, Warnings and precautions)
Drugs antagonizing pressor effects of epinephrine α-blockers, such as phentolamine Vasodilators, such as nitrates Diuretics Antihypertensives Ergot alkaloids Drugs potentiating pressor effects of epinephrine • Sympathomimetics • β-blockers, such as propranolol • Tricyclic anti-depressants • Monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors • Catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT)… (Epinephrine label, Drug interactions)
Post injury arterial injection of vasodilators and/or arterial infusion of parenteral fluids are generally regarded to be of no value in altering outcome. (Methohexital label, Warnings)
Alpha-adrenergic blockers and PDE5 inhibitors are both vasodilators that can lower blood pressure. (Silodosin label, Warnings and precautions)
Alpha-adrenergic blockers and PDE5 inhibitors are both vasodilators that can lower blood pressure. (Tamsulosin label, Warnings and precautions)
