  • Viloxazinenorepinephrine reuptake inhibitorModerate

    CYP2D6 Substrates Clinical Impact Viloxazine is a weak inhibitor of CYP2D6, and increases the exposure of CYP2D6 substrates when coadministered [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . (Viloxazine label, Drug interactions)

  • WarfarinanticoagulantModerate

    For patients taking warfarin, carefully monitor the international normalized ratio. (Paroxetine label, Warnings and precautions)

  • Zaleplonsedative-hypnoticModerate

    Paroxetine: Coadministration of a single dose of zaleplon 20 mg and paroxetine 20 mg daily for 7 days did not produce any interaction on psychomotor performance. (Zaleplon label, Drug interactions)

  • Zolpidemsedative-hypnoticModerate

    Additive effects occur with concomitant use of other CNS depressants (e.g., benzodiazepines, opioids, tricyclic antidepressants, alcohol), including daytime use [see Drug Interactions (7.1) ] . (Zolpidem label, Warnings and precautions)

  • ZonisamideanticonvulsantModerate

    Caution should be used when ZONISADE is prescribed with other drugs that predispose patients to heat-related disorders; these drugs include, but are not limited to, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors and drugs with anticholinergic activity. (Zonisamide label, Warnings and precautions)

Minor mentions (12)

  • BenztropineanticholinergicMinor

    When benztropine mesylate is given concomitantly with phenothiazines, haloperidol, or other drugs with anticholinergic or antidopaminergic activity, patients should be advised to report gastrointestinal complaints, fever or heat intolerance promptly. (Benztropine label, Warnings)

  • Cevimelinecholinergic agonistMinor

    Cevimeline might interfere with desirable antimuscarinic effects of drugs used concomitantly. (Cevimeline label, Drug interactions)

  • Divalproex (valproate)anticonvulsantMinor

    In contrast, drugs that are inhibitors of cytochrome P450 isozymes, e.g., antidepressants, may be expected to have little effect on valproate clearance because cytochrome P450 microsomal mediated oxidation is a relatively minor secondary metabolic pathway compared to glucuronidation and beta-oxidation. (Divalproex (valproate) label, Drug interactions)

  • Donepezilcholinesterase inhibitorMinor

    Cholinesterase inhibitors have the potential to interfere with the activity of anticholinergic medications ( 7.1 ) (Donepezil label, Drug interactions)

  • Galantaminecholinesterase inhibitorMinor

    Potential to interfere with the activity of anticholinergic medications ( 7.1 ) (Galantamine label, Drug interactions)

  • HydroxyzineantihistamineMinor

    …quinidine, procainamide) or Class III (e.g., amiodarone, sotalol) antiarrhythmics, certain antipsychotics (e.g., ziprasidone, iloperidone, clozapine, quetiapine, chlorpromazine), certain antidepressants (e.g., citalopram, fluoxetine), certain antibiotics (e.g., azithromycin, erythromycin, clarithromycin, gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin); and others (e.g., pentamidine, methadone,… (Hydroxyzine label, Precautions)

  • LovastatinstatinMinor

    These include itraconazole, ketoconazole, posaconazole, voriconazole, the macrolide antibiotics erythromycin and clarithromycin, the ketolide antibiotic telithromycin, HIV protease inhibitors, boceprevir, telaprevir, the antidepressant nefazodone, or cobicistat-containing products. (Lovastatin label, Warnings)

  • MeclizineantihistamineMinor

    CYP2D6 inhibitors: As meclizine is metabolized by CYP2D6, there is a potential for drug-drug interactions between meclizine hydrochloride and CYP2D6 inhibitors ( 7.2 ). (Meclizine label, Drug interactions)

  • PaliperidoneantipsychoticMinor

    Appropriate care is advised when prescribing ERZOFRI to patients who will be experiencing conditions which may contribute to an elevation in core body temperature, e.g., exercising strenuously, exposure to extreme heat, receiving concomitant medication with anticholinergic activity, or being subject to dehydration. (Paliperidone label, Warnings and precautions)

  • TiagabineanticonvulsantMinor

    In most cases, patients were using concomitant medications (antidepressants, antipsychotics, stimulants, narcotics) that are thought to lower the seizure threshold. (Tiagabine label, Warnings)

  • TrihexyphenidylanticholinergicMinor

    Monoamine oxidase inhibitors and tricyclic antidepressants possessing significant anticholinergic activity may intensify the anticholinergic effects of antidyskinetic agents because of the secondary anticholinergic activities of these medications. (Trihexyphenidyl label, Drug interactions)

  • Valproic acidanticonvulsantMinor

    In contrast, drugs that are inhibitors of cytochrome P450 isozymes, e.g., antidepressants, may be expected to have little effect on valproate clearance because cytochrome P450 microsomal mediated oxidation is a relatively minor secondary metabolic pathway compared to glucuronidation and beta-oxidation. (Valproic acid label, Drug interactions)

No significant interaction reported (1)

  • Ropiniroledopamine agonistNo interaction

    Commonly Administered Drugs: Population analysis showed that commonly administered drugs (e.g., selegiline, amantadine, tricyclic antidepressants, benzodiazepines, ibuprofen, thiazides, antihistamines, anticholinergics) did not affect the clearance of ropinirole. (Ropinirole label, Drug interactions)
