¿Puedo tomar Alogliptina y Amlodipino juntos?

Por qué sucede esto

Alogliptin (used for type 2 diabetes) and amlodipine (used for high blood pressure) are processed by different pathways in the body. Alogliptin is primarily cleared by the kidneys, while amlodipine is broken down by the liver. They do not interfere with how each other works or how they are removed from the system.

You can continue to take both medications as prescribed by your doctor. As with any combination of medicines for blood pressure and diabetes, it is always a good idea to monitor your blood sugar and blood pressure regularly to ensure your conditions are well-managed.

Pancreatitis

Stop taking alogliptin and see a doctor immediately if you experience severe and persistent stomach pain, which may reach through to your back, as this can be a sign of an inflamed pancreas

Problemas del hígado

If you have liver disease, your dose may need to be adjusted or monitored more closely as amlodipina is broken down by the liver and can build up in your system.

Jugo de toronja

El jugo de toronja puede aumentar la cantidad de amlodipina en tu sangre, lo que puede hacer que tu presión arterial baje demasiado y aumentar el riesgo de efectos secundarios como dolores de cabeza o tobillos hinchados. Evita beber grandes cantidades de jugo de toronja.

Alcohol

While there is no direct interaction, alcohol can lower your blood pressure (with amlodipine) or affect your blood sugar levels (with alogliptin). It is best to keep your intake within recommended limits and monitor how you feel.
