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.

Consumer:

Taking the dabigatran and calcium carbonate doses too close together may interfere with the absorption of dabigatran and reduce its effectiveness. To prevent or minimize the interaction, you should take dabigatran at least two hours before calcium carbonate. In addition, you should avoid taking calcium carbonate within 24 hours after orthopedic surgery. 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.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Coadministration with an antacid may reduce the bioavailability of dabigatran following oral administration of dabigatran etexilate.

Thereafter, a reduction of about 11% was observed.

MANAGEMENT: Dabigatran should be administered at least two hours before taking an antacid. Coadministration with dabigatran should be avoided within 24 hours after orthopedic surgery.
