Patients taking antacids or sucralfate, calcium supplements, or iron supplements should also inform their healthcare team about these interactions. Patients taking ritonavir and digoxin should also inform their healthcare team about these interactions. Patients taking warfarin should also inform their healthcare team about these interactions.
