Migraine Formula interactions

What other drugs will affect Migraine Formula?

Use of Aspirin (Migraine Formula) with dipyridamole may result in an increase in plasma-salicylate concentrations. Drugs such as metoclopramide in patients with migraine headache result in earlier absorption of Aspirin (Migraine Formula) and higher peak plasma-salicylate concentrations. Metoprolol may also increase peak plasma-salicylate concentrations. Salicylate intoxication has occurred in patients on high-dose salicylate regimens and carbonic anhydrase inhibitors.

Plasma-salicylate concentrations may be reduced by corticosteroids. This interaction is likely to be important in patients receiving high-dose long-term salicylate treatment. Conversely, salicylate toxicity may occur if corticosteroids are withdrawn. Also the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding and ulceration associated with Aspirin (Migraine Formula) is increased when used with corticosteroids. Antacids may increase the excretion of Aspirin (Migraine Formula) in alkaline urine.

Aspirin (Migraine Formula) may enhance the activity of coumarin anticoagulants, sulfonylurea hypoglycaemic drugs, zafirlukast, methotrexate, phenytoin, and valproate. Aspirin (Migraine Formula) diminishes the effects of uricosurics such as probenecid and sulfinpyrazone. The manufacturer of mifepristone advises of a theoretical risk that prostaglandin synthetase inhibition by Aspirin (Migraine Formula) or NSAIDs may alter the efficacy of mifepristone.

Use of Aspirin (Migraine Formula) with other NSAIDs should be avoided because of the increased risk of adverse effects; the cardioprotective effects of Aspirin (Migraine Formula) may be abolished by ibuprofen. Aspirin (Migraine Formula) may decrease the plasma concentration of some other NSAIDs, for example, fenbufen, indometacin, and piroxicam
