• Musylium decreases absorbance of some minerals (such as calcium, magnesium, copper and zinc), vitamin B12, cardiac glycosides and coumarin derivatives.
• Concurrent use of Musylium with lithium salts decreases the plasma concentration of Lithium and prevents absorption of Lithium in the digestive tract. Dosing adjustments may be necessary.
• Musylium may decrease the rate and the amount of Carbamazepine absorption.
• Because of potential reductions in blood sugar levels caused by psyllium, requirements for insulin or other diabetes drugs in diabetic patients may be reduced. Blood glucose levels should be closely monitored, and dosing adjustments may be necessary.
• Avoid concurrent use of laxative drugs with liquorice due to increasing the risk of hypokalemia.
