Can Formepra be used in cardiac patients?
Patients with cardiac disease can take Formepra as prescribed by the doctor. However, Formepra can interact with certain drugs (e.g clopidogrel, digoxin) which might be used by a patient with an underlying cardiac disease. Patients taking Formepra and digoxin may need to be monitored for digoxin toxicity. Formepra decreases the activation of clopidogrel, thus reducing its effects. Patients taking these medicines together need to be monitored closely by a doctor.
