Telgard 40 Tablet 10

Telgard 40 Tablet 10 may interact with the following medications:

• Heart medications: Medicines like digoxin, if taken alongside an Telgard 40 Tablet 10, could result in elevated levels of digoxin in your bloodstream.
• Mood stabilizers such as lithium: Combining the medicine with lithium can cause an increase in lithium concentration, leading to adverse effects.
• Anticoagulants:
• When taken together, the medicine may alter the blood-thinning effects of anticoagulants like warfarin.
