Consumer:Dexamethasone may affect the accuracy of the diagnostic test performed with macimorelin. It is generally recommended to discontinue dexamethasone for a washout period before administration of the test. Talk to a healthcare professional if you have any questions or concerns. 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:GENERALLY AVOID: Drugs that directly affect the pituitary secretion of growth hormone (e.g., somatostatin, insulin, glucocorticoids, cyclooxygenase inhibitors such as aspirin and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) and drugs that may transiently elevate growth hormone levels (e.g., clonidine, levodopa, insulin) may impact the accuracy of the macimorelin diagnostic test.
MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of macimorelin with drugs affecting growth hormone levels should generally be avoided. A sufficient washout period following discontinuation of these drugs is recommended prior to macimorelin administration.
