it may enhance the effects when combined with lofexidine by pharmacodynamic synergism
may have an increased neuromuscular-blocking effect when combined with neuromuscular-blocking agents
may have an increased neuromuscular-blocking effect when combined with neuromuscular-blocking agents
may have an increased neuromuscular-blocking effect when combined with neuromuscular-blocking agents
may have an increased neuromuscular-blocking effect when combined with neuromuscular-blocking agents
may have an increased neuromuscular-blocking effect when combined with neuromuscular-blocking agents
When alprazolam and clevidipine is used together, this leads to reduction in the alprazolam’s metabolism
When dexrabeprazole and clevidipine is used together, this leads to reduction in the dexrabeprazole’s metabolism
tinidazole has the potential to reduce the rate of excretion of clevidipine, potentially leading to an elevation in level of serum
When acetohexamide is used together with clevidipine, this lead to reduction in acetohexamide’s metabolism
When clevidipine is used together with norelgestromin, this leads to a rise in norelgestromin’s metabolism
When ponesimod is used together with clevidipine, this leads to enhanced risk or seriousness of bradycardia
may increase the antiplatelet effect of antiplatelet agents
may have an increased adverse effect when combined with atosiban
may enhance the serum concentration of cyclosporine
may have an increased hyperkalemic effect when combined with CCBs
may increase the effects of bosentan by pharmacodynamic synergism
may decrease the therapeutic effect when combined with calcium channel blockers
may decrease the therapeutic effect when combined with calcium channel blockers
may decrease the therapeutic effect when combined with calcium channel blockers
may decrease the therapeutic effect when combined with calcium channel blockers
may decrease the therapeutic effect when combined with calcium channel blockers
the neuromuscular blocking activity of clevidipine may be increased
the neuromuscular blocking activity of clevidipine may be increased
clevidipine might lead to a reduction in the rate of excretion of telavancin, potentially leading to elevated levels of serum
