Consumer:

Ranolazine may increase the blood levels and effects of diphenhydrAMINE. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. Contact your doctor if your condition changes or you experience increased side effects. 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 ranolazine may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the CYP450 2D6 isoenzyme. Ranolazine has been shown in vitro to be an inhibitor of CYP450 2D6. However, concomitant use of ranolazine with other drugs that are metabolized by CYP450 2D6 such as tricyclic antidepressants and antipsychotics has not been studied.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if ranolazine must be used concurrently with medications that undergo metabolism by CYP450 2D6, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever ranolazine is added to or withdrawn from therapy.
