Erythromycin Antihistamines

Since the order of increasing CL intensity for alkyl amines reacted with Ru(bpy)32+ is tertiary amines > secondary amines > primary amines, pharmaceutical compounds bearing a tertiary amine function (e.g., antihistamine drugs [99], anticholinergic drugs [100], erythromycin [101], and its derivatives [102]) have been sensitively determined after HPLC separation (Table 3). The method was applied to the detection of d- and L-tryptophan (Trp) after separation by a ligand-exchange HPLC [103], The detection limits for d- and L-Trp were both 0.2 pmol per injection. Oxalate in urine and blood plasma samples has also been determined by a reversed-phase ion-pair HPLC (Fig. 18) [104], Direct addition of... 

Drugs that may affect antihistamines include aluminum/magnesium-containing acids, cimetidine, erythromycin, ketoconazole, MAO inhibitors, and rifamycins (eg, rifampin). Drugs that may be affected by antihistamines include alcohol and CNS depressants, beta-blockers, MAO inhibitors, metyrapone, nefazodone, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and venlafaxine.

PROPAFENONE I. ANTIARRHYTHMICS - disopyra-mide, procainamide 2. ANTIBIOTICS - macrolides (especially azithromycin, clarithromycin, parenteral erythromycin, telithromycin), quinolones (especially moxifloxacin), quinupristin/ dalfopristin 3. ANTICANCER AND IMMUNOMODULATING DRUGS -arsenic trioxide 4. ANTIDEPRESSANTS - TCAs, venlafaxine 5. ANTIEMETICS-dolasetron 6. ANTIFUNGALS-fluconazole, posaconazole, voriconazole 7. ANTIHISTAMINES - terfenadine, hydroxyzine, mizolastine 8. ANTI-M ALARIALS - artemether with lumefantrine, chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine, mefloquine, quinine 9. ANTIPROTOZOALS - pentamidine isetionate 10. ANTIPSYCHOTICS-atypicals, phenothiazines, pimozide II. BETA-BLOCKERS - sotalol 12. BRONCHODILATORS -parenteral bronchodilators 13. CNS STIMULANTS - atomoxetine Risk of ventricular arrhythmias, particularly torsades de pointes Additive effect these drugs prolong the Q-T interval. Also, amitriptyline, clomipramine and desipramine levels may be t by propafenone. Amitriptyline and clomipramine may t propafenone levels. Propafenone and these TCAs inhibit CYP2D6-mediated metabolism of each other Avoid co-administration...

Non-sedating antihistamines (e.g. loratidine, e.g. Clarityn cetirizine, e.g. Benadryl, Piriteze, Zirtek clemastine), which can cause dangerous arrhythmias with antifungal agents (itraconazole, ketoconazole), antibiotics (erythromycin, clarithromycin) and drugs used to counteract acidity... 

Drugs that are known to be substrates of P-gp include antihistamines (e.g. terfenadine), digoxin, ciclosporin, hydrocortisone and other steroids and drugs used in chemotherapy (e.g. paclitaxel, vinblastine). Ciclosporin, in addition to being a substrate of P-gp, is also an inhibitor of P-gp. Drugs known to induce P-gp include morphine, dexamethasone, phenobarbital, rifampin and St John s wort. Inhibitors of P-gp include amiodarone, amitriptyline, atorvastatin, chlorpromazine, ciclosporin, erythromycin, fluphenazine, haloperidol, quinidine, ritonavir and verapamil,...
