Relevance: 18.12.2022 Reviewer: Shkutko P.M., M.D., in

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:

Using calcium carbonate together with itraconazole may decrease the effects of itraconazole. Separate the dose of calcium carbonate and itraconazole by two or more hours. If your doctor does prescribe these medications together, you may need a dose adjustment or special test 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:

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: The dissolution of itraconazole requires an acidic environment. Antacids and some aluminum, calcium, or magnesium containing salts decrease the acidity of the stomach and can reduce the bioavailability and subsequent therapeutic effect of itraconazole.

MANAGEMENT: Separation of doses by two or more hours is recommended.
