Consumer:

Consumer information for this minor interaction is not currently available. Some minor drug interactions may not be clinically relevant in all patients. Minor drug interactions do not usually cause harm or require a change in therapy. However, your healthcare provider can determine if adjustments to your medications are needed.

Professional:

Raloxifene is more than 95% protein bound. Caution should be exercised if raloxifene is coadministered with other highly protein-bound drugs. The mechanism is displacement of the drug from its protein-binding site by raloxifene. Displacement may lead to increased free plasma concentrations and potentiate toxicity of drugs affected by raloxifene. Formal in-vitro studies indicate that raloxifene did not affect the binding of warfarin, phenytoin, or tamoxifen. The clinician may want to use caution when raloxifene is used with other highly-protein bound drugs, such as diazepam, diazoxide, or lidocaine.
