[QUOTE="Eli1947, post: 26854, member: 407"] [b]drug - drug interaction and sleep[/b] Nelson Vergel, I find your post as an opportunity to share my personal experiences with drug interactions that also shade light on sleep interruption among other issues. Most MD lack the education and training and time to help in that mater. I found that the site [URL="http://www.drugbank.ca/"]www.drugbank.ca/[/URL] is one of the most comprehensive free data base, which can help in the mater. The site has a section where the known biological interactions for each drug are compiled. Off course not all the data is available, but one can be helped with just some knowledge and motivation . The most basic is to know the generic names of the drugs you take. An extra expertise is the secret ingredient, identifying which carriers are involved in in the Blood Brain Barrier (BBB). It is not for everyone but can help many in bringing the combined data to a clinical pharmacist or caring MD for evaluation. Note the [URL="http://www.drugbank.ca/biodb/bio_entities/BE0001032"]Multidrug resistance protein 1[/URL] = MDR protein called also P glycoprotein = P gp is many time involve in increasing drugs penetration to brain and causing sleep interruption by drugs you would not suspect. Note also that most drugs prescribed for sleep (or the side effect of sleepiness ) many times are of no help probably as a result of taking other durg(s) that competing on same proteins. Drug interaction checkers most used by MDs are the micromedics and epocrates ignors these most of the metabolic and transporter interactions. [I].
