Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Is it safe to take the following drugs at the same time? I currently take Lamotrigine 100mg twice a day and Rabeprazole sodium 20mg once a day. My doctor has recommended I take alendronate sod 70mg once weekly in addition to these other medications.
Welcome to HCM! I can appreciate your query. To be more effective Rabeprazole has to be taken one hr before the meal. You can take Lamotrigine after having the meals. Regarding the administration of Alendronate sodium once weekly..... Take the drug with a full glass of water & remain upright for 30 minutes this instruction should be followed whenever you take Alendronate to prevent the inflammation of food pipe and possible ulcer formation.
I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction. Take care of your health.
