Caltrate 600+D Soft Chews and Veltassa

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.

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.GENERALLY AVOID: Systemic alkalosis has been reported when cation-exchange resins were administered orally in combination with nonabsorbable cation-donating preparations such as antacids or laxatives. The mechanism involves binding of the cation to the resin, which prevents the cation from neutralizing bicarbonate ions in the intestine and also interferes with the resin's potassium exchange capability. This interaction may be more likely and more severe in patients with renal dysfunction. Other serious adverse effects have also been reported. One patient with chronic hypocalcemia of renal failure developed alkalosis and grand mal seizure when given sodium polystyrene sulfonate with magnesium hydroxide as a laxative. Intestinal obstruction due to concretions of aluminum hydroxide has occurred in combination with sodium polystyrene sulfonate and morphine. MANAGEMENT: Nonabsorbable calcium, magnesium, or aluminum preparations such as antacids or laxatives should not be used in patients receiving oral cation-exchange resins. Alternatively, the interaction may be avoided by administering the resin as an enema. References Ziessman HA "Alkalosis and seizure due to a cation-exchange resin and magnesium hydroxide."
