What other drugs will affect Sinutab Sinus Allergy Congestion?
Sinutab Sinus Allergy Congestion hydrochloride and Pseudoephedrine (Sinutab Sinus Allergy Congestion) hydrochloride do not influence the pharmacokinetics of each other when administered concomitantly.
No clinically significant drug interactions have been found with Sinutab Sinus Allergy Congestion and theophylline at a low dose, azithromycin, ketoconazole, or erythromycin. There was a small decrease in the clearance of Sinutab Sinus Allergy Congestion caused by a 400 mg dose of theophylline; it is possible that larger theophylline doses could have a greater effect.
