This may be of particular concern if you have high blood pressure or heart, kidney, or liver problems. 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. 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: Concomitant use of androgens with adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) or corticosteroids may result in increased fluid retention and edema due to additive steroidal effects.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if androgens are used in combination with ACTH or corticosteroids, particularly in patients with conditions that may be aggravated by fluid retention such as cardiovascular, renal, or hepatic diseases.
