Drug Interaction Integrate drug-drug
interactions in your softwareAcemetacin Acemetacin may decrease the excretion rate of Carindacillin which could result in a higher serum level. Acenocoumarol Carindacillin may increase the anticoagulant activities of Acenocoumarol. Ambroxol The risk or severity of methemoglobinemia can be increased when Carindacillin is combined with Ambroxol. Amikacin The serum concentration of Amikacin can be decreased when it is combined with Carindacillin. Articaine The risk or severity of methemoglobinemia can be increased when Carindacillin is combined with Articaine. Atracurium The therapeutic efficacy of Atracurium can be increased when used in combination with Carindacillin. Atracurium besylate The therapeutic efficacy of Atracurium besylate can be increased when used in combination with Carindacillin. BCG vaccine The therapeutic efficacy of BCG vaccine can be decreased when used in combination with Carindacillin. Benzocaine The risk or severity of methemoglobinemia can be increased when Carindacillin is combined with Benzocaine. Benzyl alcohol The risk or severity of methemoglobinemia can be increased when Carindacillin is combined with Benzyl alcohol.
