Interactions
-->Interactions for Formoterol:
Short-Acting ß2-agonists: Aerosol bronchodilators of the short-acting
adrenergic stimulant type may be used for relief of breakthrough symptoms while using formoterol. However, increasing
use of such preparations to control symptoms indicates deterioration of asthma control and the need to reassess the
patientís therapy.
Concomitant administration of other sympathomimetic agents may potentiate the undesirable effects of
FORADIL.
Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors and Tricyclic Antidepressants: FORADIL should be administered
with extreme caution in patients being treated with monoamine oxidase inhibitors or tricyclic antidepressants because
the action of formoterol on the cardiovascular system may be potentiated by these agents.
Corticosteroids, Methylxanthines and Diuretics: Concomitant treatment with xanthine
derivatives, steroids, or diuretics may potentiate a possible hypokalemic effect of ß2-agonists.
Hypokalemia may increase susceptibility to cardiac arrhythmias in patients treated with digitalis.
ß-adrenergic Blockers: ß-adrenergic blockers may weaken or antagonise the effect
of FORADIL. Therefore FORADIL should not be given together with ß-adrenergic blockers (including eye drops)
unless there are compelling reasons for their use.
Other Drugs:Drugs such as quinidine, disopyramide, procainamide, phenothiazines,
antihistamines, and tricyclic antidepressants may be associated with QT-interval prolongation and an increased risk
of ventricular arrhythmia.
INFORMATION TO BE PROVIDED TO THE PATIENT OR GUARDIAN
See illustrated Information For The Patient or Guardian section. It is
important that patients understand how to use FORADIL® (formoterol fumarate) capsules with the supplied
AerolizerTM inhalation device and how it should be used in relation to other asthma or COPD medications
they are taking. Patients/Guardians should be given the following information:
i. The recommended dosage (one or two capsules twice daily, morning and evening) should not be exceeded.
ii. FORADIL is not meant to relieve acute asthma or COPD symptoms and extra doses should not be used for that
purpose. Acute symptoms should be treated with a short-acting, inhaled ß2 -agonist such as
salbutamol (the physician should provide the patient with such medication and instruct the patient in how it should
be used).
iii. The physician should be notified immediately if any of the following situations occur, which may be a sign
of seriously worsening asthma:
ï Decreased effectiveness of short-acting, inhaled ß2- agonists;
ï Need for more inhalations than usual of short-acting, inhaled ß2 -agonists.
iv. FORADIL should not be used as a substitute for oral or inhaled corticosteroids. The dosage of these
medications should not be changed and they should not be stopped without consulting the physician, even if the
patient feels better after initiating treatment with FORADIL.
v. Patients should be cautioned regarding potential adverse cardiovascular effects, such as palpitations or
chest pain.
vi. In patients receiving FORADIL, other inhaled medications should be used only as directed by the
physician.
vii. Guardians of children who have been prescribed FORADIL should be alerted to the general concern regarding
asthma therapy compliance, especially neglect of anti-inflammatory therapy and overuse of short-acting
ß2-agonists.
