More Information on Drug Interactions With Aceon
The following sections explain in detail the potentially negative interactions that can occur when
Aceon is combined with any of the drugs listed above.
Diuretics
When taking Aceon with a diuretic, your
blood pressure may decrease too much. This is more likely to occur when Aceon is first started. In order to decrease the chances of this interaction, your healthcare provider may change the dosages of medicine, start you on a lower dose of Aceon, and/or monitor you more closely.
Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs
If you have kidney disease or kidney failure, taking both
NSAIDs and Aceon may add to the damage that your kidneys are already suffering. Also, NSAIDs may decrease the blood pressure-lowering effects of Aceon. Talk to your healthcare provider about using NSAIDs and Aceon together and the effects in your particular situation.
Potassium Supplements
If you are taking a potassium supplement with Aceon, the levels of potassium in your blood may become too high. This can cause serious problems. Talk to your healthcare provider about using potassium and Aceon together and the effects in your particular situation.
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics
If you are taking both Aceon and a potassium-sparing diuretic, your body may metabolize them differently than intended and/or increase the levels of potassium in your blood. Your healthcare provider may choose to monitor your progress closely if this is the case.
Lithium
If you are taking both Aceon and
lithium, your body may metabolize the drugs differently than intended and increase the lithium levels in the blood. Your healthcare provider may choose to monitor your serum lithium levels more frequently if this is the case.
