Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

Chlorpheniramine Maleate 4 mg/Pseudoephedrine HCl 60 mg/Acetaminophen 650 mg Slow Release Capsules 0 is a compounded formulation designed for the relief of symptoms associated with seasonal allergies and the common cold. This includes symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, nasal congestion, sore throat, cough, and fever. The formulation is encapsulated in Methocel E4M, a controlled-release polymer, which allows for the gradual release of the active ingredients over an extended period of time. This provides sustained therapeutic effects, reduces the frequency of dosing, and improves patient compliance for medications requiring a controlled and prolonged release profile.

Acetaminophen, one of the active ingredients, is an analgesic and antipyretic, providing relief from pain and fever. However, this formulation may interact with other medications, including those used to treat depression, anxiety, mental health conditions, high blood pressure, heart disease, or diabetes. It is important for patients to inform their healthcare provider of all medications they are currently taking, including over-the-counter medications, vitamins, and herbal supplements.

Patients should not take this formulation if they are allergic to any of the ingredients, or if they have narrow-angle glaucoma, difficulty urinating due to an enlarged prostate, or if they are taking a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI). It is also not recommended for patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Caution should be exercised if patients have a history of heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, glaucoma, thyroid disease, seizures, asthma, or liver or kidney disease.

It is crucial not to exceed the recommended dose of this formulation. Overdose can lead to serious side effects, including seizures, coma, and death. If you have any questions about this formulation or its interactions, please consult with your healthcare provider.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Chlorpheniramine Maleate 4 mg/Pseudoephedrine HCl 60 mg/Acetaminophen 650 mg Slow Release Capsules is a compounded formulation designed to alleviate symptoms associated with the common cold, allergies, and other respiratory conditions. This combination medication works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance in the body that triggers allergic symptoms. It also reduces swelling in the nasal passages, alleviates congestion, and minimizes the production of mucus. The inclusion of Acetaminophen in the formulation aids in reducing fever and pain.

The capsules are formulated with Methocel E4M, a type of controlled-release polymer. This design allows for a gradual and extended release of the encapsulated medication, providing a sustained therapeutic effect. This slow release mechanism offers a more consistent level of relief, reduces the frequency of dosing, and improves patient compliance, particularly for medications requiring a controlled and prolonged release profile.

However, this formulation is not recommended for children under 12 years of age. It should be used with caution in patients with high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, glaucoma, an enlarged prostate, or thyroid disease. Additionally, caution is advised for patients who are currently taking other medications, including prescription and over-the-counter medications, vitamins, and herbal supplements.

If you have any questions about this formulation or its mechanism of action, please do not hesitate to reach out. It is important to find the most suitable treatment for your condition, and we are here to assist you in that process.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
