Sintesi

Amitriptyline has strong anticholinergic activity that directly opposes the muscarinic effects of bethanechol. This can reduce bethanechol's benefit in urinary retention and may worsen retention caused by the antidepressant.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Amitriptyline and Bethanechol can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.

Amitriptyline belongs to Central Nervous System; Bethanechol belongs to Gastrointestinal Tract.

Livello di evidenza: Moderate

Perché avviene

Pharmacodynamic antagonism between a muscarinic agonist and a muscarinic antagonist.

Cosa fare
