Esomeprazole can interact with other medications, reducing its efficacy or increasing side effects. For instance, it may decrease the absorption of drugs like ketoconazole and increase the levels of diazepam.
Esomeprazole should be used cautiously with certain drugs. Concurrent use with clopidogrel can diminish the effectiveness of clopidogrel, potentially increasing heart attack risk.
Combining esomeprazole with drugs such as warfarin can raise the risk of bleeding, whereas it can hinder the absorption of drugs like atazanavir, affecting their efficacy.
