Carbophage G2 Tablet 10

Carbophage G2 Tablet 10 interacts with the following medicines:

• CYP2C9 inhibitors: Medicines like fluconazole and amiodarone may increase the levels of glimepiride in your body, making you more susceptible to side effects like hypoglycaemia.
• Other glucose-lowering medications: If you're taking salicylates, sulphonamides, chloramphenicol, probenecid, or cimetidine, these can intensify the glucose-lowering effect of glimepiride resulting in low blood sugar levels.
• Cationic medications: These medicines, including amiloride, digoxin, morphine, procainamide, quinidine, ranitidine, triamterene, trimethoprim, and vancomycin, may reduce how quickly your body eliminates metformin, which could increase its action and side effects.
