What the FDA labels say about taking them together

Clomipramine and digoxin

Clomipramine's FDA label of November 26, 2024 names digoxin in its drug interactions section; the digoxin labels PlainMeds reads (3) do not name clomipramine. The clomipramine label: “… patients taking other drugs that are highly bound to protein (e.g., warfarin, digoxin) may cause an increase in plasma concentrations of these drugs, potentially resulting in adverse effects.”

Check it at the source: the clomipramine FDA label on DailyMed (effective November 26, 2024); the digoxin FDA label on DailyMed (effective December 5, 2024, Advanz Pharma (US) Corp.).

What does the clomipramine label say about digoxin?

Clomipramine label, drug interactions

Because clomipramine hydrochloride capsules are highly bound to serum protein, the administration of clomipramine hydrochloride capsules to patients taking other drugs that are highly bound to protein (e.g., warfarin, digoxin) may cause an increase in plasma concentrations of these drugs, potentially resulting in adverse effects.

What does the digoxin label say about clomipramine?

Digoxin's label (effective December 5, 2024) and its 2 other brand-application labels do not name clomipramine in these sections. A label lists what its studies and reports found; it is not a complete list.

These are the labels' own sentences. PlainMeds does not grade interactions; a pharmacist or prescriber can say what they mean for one person's medicines.
