Can Amaryl Be Taken While On Levothyroxine And Ramipril?
I was recently prescribed Amaryl and was just looking up any drug interactions issues. I take the following: Metformin 500mgs 120 Take 2 pills 2x per day Carvedilol 12.5mgs 60 Take 2x per day Levothyroxine 150mgs 30 Take 1x per day Amaiodarone 200mgs 30 Take 1x per day Ramipril 2.5mgs 30 Take 1x per day Diltiazem 120mgs 30 Take 1x per day Alpralozam .5mgs 90 Take as needed Amaryl Glimepride 4mgs 30 Take 1/2 pill 1x per day for 7 days then 1 pill 1x per day thereafer Clopedrol 75mgs 30 Take 1x per day Atorvastin 80mgs 30 Take 1x per day Hydrocodone-Acetaminoph 7.5-325 90 Take as needed
There are some interactions between the medications, most can be monitored, one is potentially serious.
Alprazolam and hydrocodone drugs increase the strength of each other, they work together and can cause significant sedation and in some persons, affect breathing- slow it down.
Amiodarone drug increases the effect of Carvedilol drug by affecting its breakdown. Amiodarone also increases the effect of hydrocodone by affecting its breakdown in the liver.
Diltiazem drug increases the level and effect of alprazolam and amiodarone. These are some of the interactions that may occur.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
