Utira-C Tablets and Vortioxetine
Determining the interaction of Utira-C Tablets and Vortioxetine and the possibility of their joint administration.
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:Bowel cleansing with sodium biphosphate can cause kidney failure, in some cases up to several months after the procedure. Although it rarely occurs, the risk is increased in individuals receiving treatment with phenyl salicylate, especially if they are also elderly or frail. You may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely use both medications. Combining these medications may also increase the risk of dehydration and electrolyte abnormalities. In severe cases, dehydration and electrolyte abnormalities can lead to irregular heart rhythm, seizures, and kidney problems. You should use sodium biphosphate exactly as prescribed by your doctor, and drink plenty of clear fluids before, during, and after the cleansing process to keep yourself hydrated. Your doctor may also recommend an electrolyte rehydration solution that you can use. Talk to your doctor if you have any 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:MONITOR CLOSELY: The following interaction applies only to products containing sodium biphosphate that are used for bowel cleansing. It does not apply to products containing sodium biphosphate that are used for other, non-laxative related purposes.
Coadministration with agents that affect renal function or perfusion such as diuretics, ACE inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may increase the risk of acute phosphate nephropathy associated with the use of bowel-cleansing phosphate solutions. The risk and/or severity of fluid and electrolyte disturbances may also be increased, which can lead to serious adverse events including cardiac arrhythmias, seizures, and renal impairment. Acute phosphate nephropathy is a rare adverse event that presents as acute renal failure with minimal proteinuria and a bland urine sediment. Renal biopsy findings are consistent with nephrocalcinosis and include acute and/or chronic renal tubular injury, calcium-phosphate crystal deposition in the distal tubules and collecting ducts, and no other pattern of histological injury. The risk of acute phosphate nephropathy stems from the large phosphate load, fluid shifts, and decreased intravascular volume, which can be exacerbated in the presence of medications that affect renal perfusion or function. In reported cases, acute renal failure was typically diagnosed within two to five months of colonoscopy. These cases often resulted in permanent impairment of renal function, some requiring long-term dialysis.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when bowel-cleansing phosphate preparations are prescribed in patients treated with agents that affect renal function or perfusion, particularly if they are frail or elderly. Bowel-cleansing phosphate preparations should not be used in patients who have impaired renal function or perfusion, dehydration, or uncorrected electrolyte abnormalities. In patients at risk for acute phosphate nephropathy, baseline and postprocedure labs including serum electrolytes, calcium, phosphate, BUN, and creatinine should be performed. Patients should be advised not to exceed the recommended dosage of their bowel-cleansing preparation and to drink sufficient quantities of clear fluids during before, during, and after bowel cleansing. Limited data suggest that administration of an electrolyte rehydration solution may attenuate the electrolyte abnormalities and hypovolemia. Hospitalization and intravenous fluid hydration may be appropriate for frail or elderly patients who may be unable to drink an adequate volume of fluid.
