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. A doctor should be consulted to address the issue of joint drug administration.

Consumer:

Somatropin may affect the accuracy of the diagnostic test performed with macimorelin. It is generally recommended to discontinue somatropin 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 may blunt the growth hormone response to macimorelin such as muscarinic antagonists (e.g., atropine), anti-thyroid agents (e.g., propylthiouracil), and growth hormone products may impact the accuracy of the macimorelin diagnostic test.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of drugs that can blunt the response to macimorelin should generally be avoided. A sufficient washout period following discontinuation of these drugs is recommended prior to macimorelin administration. The prescribing information recommends discontinuing growth hormone products for at least one week before administering the macimorelin diagnostic test.
