37 interactions on record

Cardiovascular collapse in association with marked hyperkalemia reported; intravenous dantrolene not recommended with calcium channel blockers during malignant hyperthermia crisis.

Avoid concomitant use; calcium chloride may reduce response to calcium channel blockers. Monitor blood pressure closely if use unavoidable.

Marked symptomatic orthostatic hypotension reported when combined with organic nitrates. Dose adjustments of either class may be necessary.

Source: NLP:nitroglycerin

Calcium channel-blocking drugs produce hyperglycemia and may lead to loss of blood glucose control in patients receiving Acarbose. Close observation for loss of glucose control is recommended.

Given with adenosine without apparent adverse interactions, but adenosine should be used with caution due to potential additive depressant effects on SA and AV nodes.

Monitor heart rate in patients receiving clonidine concomitantly with calcium channel blockers, which affect sinus node function or AV nodal conduction.

Calcium channel blocking drugs may produce hyperglycemia and lead to loss of control of glyburide. Patients should be closely observed for loss of control.

Source: NLP:glyburide

Calcium channel blockers may produce hyperglycemia and lead to loss of glycemic control. Patient should be observed closely for loss of control when initiated or withdrawn.

Imatinib increases plasma concentration of dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers; use caution with drugs having narrow therapeutic window.

Source: NLP:imatinib

Imatinib increases plasma concentration of CYP3A4 metabolized dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers. Use caution with drugs that have narrow therapeutic window.

Lacosamide should be used with caution with sodium channel blockers due to risk of AV block, bradycardia, or ventricular tachyarrhythmia. ECG monitoring recommended.

Concomitant use may produce additive reduction in myocardial contractility due to negative chronotropic and inotropic effects.

CYP3A inhibitors; concomitant use in patients with widespread and/or erythrodermic disease should be done with caution due to potential for increased pimecrolimus levels.

Source: NLP:pimecrolimus

CYP3A4 inhibitors; concomitant administration in patients with widespread and/or erythrodermic disease should be done with caution.
