Can bile acid sequestrants interact with other drugs?
Yes, bile acid sequestrants can interfere with the absorption of various medications. Drugs such as warfarin, thyroid hormones, and certain antibiotics may have reduced bioavailability when co-administered with these agents. To mitigate these interactions, it is typically recommended to administer other medications at least 1-2 hours before or 4-6 hours after taking a bile acid sequestrant.
