Drug Interactions
7 DRUG INTERACTIONS • Bile acid sequestering agents and aluminum-based antacids: Avoid concomitant use with CTEXLI. ( 7.1 ) • Coumarin and its derivatives: Monitor prothrombin time and adjust dosage accordingly. ( 7.2 ) 7.1 Effect of Other Drugs on CTEXLI Co-administration of bile acid sequestering agents, such as cholestyramine and colestipol, or aluminum-based antacids may decrease absorption of CTEXLI in the intestine and may result in decreased efficacy of CTEXLI. Avoid concomitant use of bile acid sequestering agents or aluminum-based antacids with CTEXLI. 7.2 Effect of CTEXLI on Other Drugs Due to potential hepatotoxicity, CTEXLI may affect the pharmacodynamics of coumarin and its derivatives, causing unexpected prolongation of the prothrombin time and hemorrhage. If concomitant use of CTEXLI with coumarin or its derivatives is unavoidable, monitor prothrombin time. Adjust the dosage of coumarin or its derivatives in accordance with its approved product labeling.
