Drug Interactions
Certain laboratory tests, such as allergy skin testing, may be affected by this medicine, potentially leading to erroneous test findings. Make sure your laboratory personnel and all of your doctors are aware that you are taking this medication.
If you use fexofenadine with ketoconazole or erythromycin, your plasma levels of fexofenadine may rise. Other anticholinergics and CNS depressants may intensify their negative effects. Antipsychotics (phenothiazines) may have an arrhythmogenic impact; avoid taking them together. Betahistine's efficacy may be reduced. Fexofenadine's anticholinergic action may be enhanced by pramlintide. Verapamil's bioavailability may be improved. Rifampin has the potential to diminish efficacy.
