Fluconazole needs to be advocated with due precaution along with oral hypoglycemics, coumarins, phenytoin, cyclosporine, rifampicin, theophylline, astemizole, rifabutin, tacrolimus and short-acting benzodiazepines.
As azithromycin interacts with aluminium and magnesium-containing antacids, digoxin, ergot derivatives, triazolam and drugs metabolized by cytochrome P450 such as carbamazepine, cyclosporine, phenytoin, it must be co-administered with care.
Secnidazole also has potential to interact with coumarins and hence the medication must be co-administered with care along with such anticoagulants.
