Renal impairment
Increase anticoagulant effects with warfarin
Milk
Slow metabolism xanthines (caffeinated = hyperactive reaction
ciprofloxacin
warfarin + fluconazole =
increase bleeding
Hepatic impairment Hypokalemia Pregnancy = fetal malformations Warfarin = increases bleeding Oral hypoglycemic Erythromycin – increase risk of cardiotoxicity & death
fluconazole
Suppressive immune system (anemic) Hepatic impairment (increase ALT, AST, chronic alcoholic) Warfarin Disulfiram Lithium
metronidazole
Cardiac Disease = can prolong PR interval = 3rd degree heart block = fatal
Hepatic impairment
Statins = increase risk for myopathy
Antidysrhythmic durgs = life-threatening dysrhythmias

toxicity
can you have anuria with diuretics
no

Anything that causes hypotension
Worsened by increase vasodilation (bleeding, ICP)
Pericardial tamponade & constrictive pericarditis
Liver & renal disease
Treat before: dehydration or hypovolemia
nitroglycerine
High intracranial pressure (brings fluid with it and increase pressure)
Renal failure
Sympathomimetics will block action of it
nitroprusidde sodium
