Check result:
Cipro Iv Minibags <> Ramelteon
Relevance: 14.09.2022 Reviewer: Shkutko P.M., M.D., in

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:

Ciprofloxacin may increase the blood levels of ramelteon in some patients. This can increase the risk of side effects including daytime drowsiness, motor impairment, amnesia, anxiety, abnormal thinking, hallucinations, behavioral changes, and breathing difficulties (especially if you have a respiratory disorder such as asthma or obstructive sleep apnea). Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. 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. Avoid driving or operating hazardous machinery until you know how these medications affect you, and do not exceed the dosage or frequency of use of ramelteon prescribed by your doctor. 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.

Professional:

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 1A2 may increase the plasma concentrations and pharmacologic effects of ramelteon, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. In healthy volunteers, administration of a single 16 mg dose of ramelteon following pretreatment with the potent CYP450 1A2 inhibitor fluvoxamine (100 mg orally twice daily for 3 days) resulted in a 70-fold increase in ramelteon peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and a 190-fold increase in systemic exposure (AUC) compared to administration of ramelteon alone. However, fluvoxamine is known to also inhibit CYP450 2C9 and 3A4, both of which contribute significantly to the metabolism of ramelteon. Concomitant administration of ramelteon with less potent CYP450 1A2 inhibitors has not been evaluated.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when ramelteon is used with CYP450 1A2 inhibitors. A reduction in the ramelteon dosage may be necessary in patients who experience excessive sedation or other adverse effects.
