Accretropin and Buprenex

In the database of official manuals used in the service creation an interaction registered by statistical results of studies was found, which can either lead to negative consequences for the patient health or strengthen a mutual positive effect. A doctor should be consulted to address the issue of joint drug administration.

Somatropin may reduce the blood levels of buprenorphine, which may make the medication less effective. If you have been receiving treatment with buprenorphine, adding somatropin may also cause you to experience unpleasant withdrawal symptoms such as watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, yawning, excessive sweating, goose bumps, fever, chills, flushing, restlessness, irritability, anxiety, depression, pupil dilation, tremor, rapid heart beat, body aches, involuntary twitching and kicking, abdominal cramping, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and weight loss. Contact your doctor if your symptoms worsen or your condition changes during treatment with these medications. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring to safely use both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of buprenorphine, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. Reduced efficacy or withdrawal symptoms may occur in patients maintained on buprenorphine.

MANAGEMENT: Pharmacologic response to buprenorphine should be monitored more closely whenever a CYP450 3A4 inducer is added to or withdrawn from therapy, and the buprenorphine dosage adjusted as necessary.
