¿Puedo tomar Ibuprofeno y Quinina juntos?

Por qué sucede esto

Ibuprofen can irritate the lining of the stomach and interfere with blood clotting. Quinine can also cause stomach upset and, in rare cases, lower the number of platelets in your blood (which help with clotting). Furthermore, both drugs have the potential to affect the electrical activity of the heart, though this is rare at standard doses.

Use this combination with caution. If you have a history of stomach ulcers, heart rhythm problems, or kidney issues, speak to your doctor or pharmacist before taking them together. If you do take both, look out for signs of stomach pain, black tarry stools, unusual bruising, or a fluttering sensation in your chest. Always take ibuprofen with food to protect your stomach.

Asma

No tome ibuprofeno si tiene asma, ya que puede causar un empeoramiento potencialmente mortal de su respiración o una reacción alérgica grave.

Úlceras estomacales o sangrado

Evita el ibuprofeno si alguna vez has tenido una úlcera estomacal, perforación o sangrado, ya que puede causar daños graves al revestimiento del estómago.

Heart rhythm disorders (e.g., Long QT syndrome)

Quinine can cause serious, potentially fatal heart rhythm problems. Do not take it if you have a history of heart rhythm disorders or are taking other medicines that affect your heart rate.

Tinnitus (ringing in the ears)

Stop taking quinine immediately and contact your doctor if you experience ringing in the ears, hearing loss, or vertigo, as these can be signs of quinine toxicity.

Trastornos sanguíneos

Quinine can cause a dangerous drop in blood platelets (thrombocytopenia). You must never take quinine again if you have ever had a reaction affecting your blood cells after taking it.

Embarazo

No tome ibuprofeno si tiene más de 6 meses de embarazo, ya que puede causar problemas graves de corazón y riñón en el bebé no nacido y complicaciones durante el parto.

Do not take quinine if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, as high doses can cause birth defects or miscarriage. It should only be used in pregnancy if specifically prescribed by a specialist to treat malaria.

Alcohol

It is best to avoid or strictly limit alcohol while taking ibuprofen. Combining alcohol with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen increases the risk of irritation to your stomach lining and can lead to stomach ulcers or bleeding.

It is best to avoid or strictly limit alcohol while taking quinine. Both alcohol and quinine can affect your heart rhythm and cause dizziness; combining them may increase these risks.

Alimentos (General)

Se recomienda tomar ibuprofeno con alimentos o un vaso de leche para reducir el riesgo de malestar estomacal o indigestión.

Jugo de toronja

Avoid drinking grapefruit juice or eating grapefruit while taking quinine. Grapefruit can increase the level of quinine in your blood, which makes side effects more likely and potentially more serious.
