Avandaryl Oral Interactions

Your healthcare professionals (e.g., doctor or pharmacist) may already be aware of any possible drug interactions and may be monitoring you for it. Do not start, stop or change the dosage of any medicine before checking with them first.

Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist of all prescription and nonprescription/herbal products you may use, especially of:

• high doses of aspirin or aspirin-like drugs (e.g., salicylates, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs - NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, phenylbutazone)
• azole antifungals (e.g., fluconazole, ketoconazole, miconazole)
• birth control pills
• bupropion
• chloramphenicol
• clofibrate
• corticosteroids (e.g., prednisone)
• decongestants (e.g., pseudoephedrine)
• diazoxide
• diet pills
• epinephrine
• estrogens
• gemfibrozil
• herbal/natural products (e.g., fenugreek, ginseng, gymnema)
• insulin
• isoniazid
• MAO inhibitors (e.g., furazolidone, linezolid, moclobemide, phenelzine procarbazine, selegiline, isocarboxazid, tranylcypromine)
• niacin
• nitrates (e.g., isosorbide dinitrate)
• phenothiazines (e.g., promethazine)
• phenytoin
• probenecid
• quinolone antibiotics (e.g., ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin)

Beta-blocker medications (e.g., metoprolol, propranolol, glaucoma eye drops such as timolol) may prevent the fast/pounding heartbeat you would usually feel when your blood sugar level falls too low (hypoglycemia). Other symptoms of low blood sugar such as dizziness, hunger, or sweating are unaffected by these drugs.

Check all prescription and nonprescription medicine labels carefully since many contain pain relievers/fever reducers (NSAIDs such as aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen) which can affect your blood sugar levels. Low-dose aspirin, as prescribed by your doctor for specific medical reasons such as heart attack or stroke prevention (usually at dosages of 81-325 milligrams per day), should be continued. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more details.

This document does not contain all possible interactions. Therefore, before using this product, tell your doctor or pharmacist of all the products you use. Keep a list of all your medications with you, and share the list with your doctor and pharmacist.
