Can I take Acylovir and Gly-coramin together?

Drug interaction guide

There are no known direct interactions between aciclovir and Gly-Coramin. However, both medications can put a small amount of extra strain on the kidneys. If your kidney function is already reduced, taking them together might slightly increase the risk of side effects from aciclovir.

Why this happens

Aciclovir is primarily removed from the body by the kidneys. Gly-Coramin contains nikethamide (a stimulant) and glucose. While they do not directly interfere with each other's metabolism, maintaining good hydration is important when taking aciclovir to prevent it from crystallising in the kidneys.

What you should do

It is generally safe to take these together. Ensure you drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your kidneys process the aciclovir. If you have a history of kidney problems, speak to your doctor or pharmacist before starting aciclovir.
