capecitabine together with cisapride lead to an elevation of the QTc interval
When capecitabine is used together with fluconazole, this leads to reduction in the capecitabine metabolism
When mometasone furoate is used together with capecitabine, this leads to enhanced risk or seriousness of adverse outcomes
When capecitabine is used together with andrographolide, this leads to enhanced risk or seriousness of bleeding
capecitabine leads to a reduction in the rate of excretion of eucalyptus oil which leads to increased level of serum
capecitabine leads to a reduction in the rate of excretion of pentaerythritol tetranitrate, which leads to an increased level of serum
capecitabine leads to a reduction in the rate of excretion of potassium acetate, which leads to an increased level of serum
capecitabine leads to a reduction in the rate of excretion of potassium perchlorate, which leads to an increased level of serum
capecitabine may decrease the excretion rate of almasilate, leading to higher serum levels
when both drugs are combined, there may be an increased risk or severity of adverse effects  
may increase the level by affecting hepatic enzyme CYP2C9 metabolism
telotristat ethyl: they may diminish serum concentrations of capecitabine
capecitabine might lead to a reduction in the rate of excretion of telavancin, potentially leading to elevated levels of serum
