Resumo

Alcohol taken with oxymorphone increases sedation and respiratory depression and can be fatal. With the extended-release oxymorphone formulation, alcohol can also cause rapid release of the whole dose (dose dumping), leading to a potentially lethal overdose.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Ethanol and Oxymorphone are not normally used together. Taking them at the same time is expected to cause harm or make one of them unsafe, so a different medicine is usually chosen for one of the two.

Nível de evidência: High

Por que acontece

Additive CNS depression, plus alcohol-induced disruption of the extended-release formulation that raises peak oxymorphone exposure.

O que fazer

Instruct patients to avoid alcohol and any alcohol-containing medicines during oxymorphone therapy. Extended-release oxymorphone is contraindicated with alcohol.
