Relevance: 12.09.2022 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:

Before you undergo any imaging procedure where tetrofosmin may be used, let your doctor know if you are currently receiving atenolol. Treatment with medications like atenolol may interfere with the imaging results. 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: Drugs such as beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, and nitrates may influence myocardial function and blood flow. Their effects on imaging results have not been studied, but may theoretically lead to false negatives in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease.

MANAGEMENT: Clinicians should consider concomitant medications that may influence myocardial function and blood flow when assessing images.
