Acunivive 90 Injection System and Omacetaxine

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.

Using omacetaxine together with ketorolac may increase the risk of bleeding. In clinical studies, treatment with omacetaxine alone has been associated with severe and sometimes fatal hemorrhage. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may already be aware of the risks, but has determined that this is the best course of treatment for you and has taken appropriate precautions and is monitoring you closely for any potential complications. You should seek immediate medical attention if you experience any unusual bleeding or bruising, or have other signs and symptoms of bleeding such as dizziness; lightheadedness; red or black, tarry stools; coughing up or vomiting fresh or dried blood that looks like coffee grounds; severe headache; and weakness. 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.

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration of omacetaxine and drugs that interfere with platelet function or coagulation may potentiate the risk of bleeding complications. Treatment with omacetaxine is associated with a high frequency of thrombocytopenia. In one study, the overall incidence of grade 3 and 4 thrombocytopenia was 85% and 88%. Fatal cerebral hemorrhages occurred in 2% of patients receiving omacetaxine and nonfatal gastrointestinal hemorrhages occurred in 2%.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of other medications that interfere with platelet function or coagulation should be avoided if the patient's platelet count is less than 50,000 per microliter. Close clinical and laboratory observation for bleeding complications is recommended during therapy. The CBC and platelet count should be monitored according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Patients should be advised to immediately report signs of hemorrhage including unusual bleeding, bruising, blood in the urine or feces, confusion, blurry vision, or slurred speech.
