Wine and Amlodipine, Celecoxib

These two interact in 2 distinct ways. Each one is explained separately below.

Why Are There 2 Interactions?

Wine interacts with whole categories of medication. Amlodipine, Celecoxib falls into 2 of those categories, so it can interact with Wine in 2 different ways. We’ve listed each one below — your overall risk is driven by the most serious of them (Major).

Major

NONSTEROIDAL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DRUGS (NSAIDs)

1 of 2

Why this applies to Amlodipine, Celecoxib

Amlodipine, Celecoxib falls under NONSTEROIDAL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DRUGS (NSAIDs) — the group Wine interacts with.

Concomitant use may increase the risk of gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding.
Concomitant use of NSAIDs with alcohol may increase the risk of GI bleeding.
Severity Major Likelihood Probable Evidence C

Interaction has not been documented in well-controlled studies, however, the interaction has been demonstrated in some small human studies or in controlled animal studies in conjunction with multiple case reports..

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Consensi is a combo pill: amlodipine for blood pressure and celecoxib, which is an NSAID for pain and inflammation. The concern here is with the celecoxib half. NSAIDs can be rough on the stomach lining, and adding wine (or any alcohol) on top of that raises your chances of stomach irritation and GI bleeding. Watch for warning signs like stomach pain, black or tarry stools, or vomit that looks like coffee grounds.

This isn't about one occasional glass with dinner so much as regular or heavier drinking, which stacks the risk. The amlodipine part doesn't drive this, though alcohol can also lower blood pressure a bit. Please check with your pharmacist or doctor about how much, if any, is safe for you.

ANTIHYPERTENSIVE DRUGS

2 of 2

Amlodipine, Celecoxib also falls under ANTIHYPERTENSIVE DRUGS.

Theoretically, concomitant use may interfere with blood pressure control.
Clinical research suggests that consumption of alcohol can increase both systolic and diastolic blood pressure. However, acute alcohol intoxication can also increase the risk of hypotension and additive effects with antihypertensive drugs.

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Consensi is a combo pill that pairs amlodipine (a blood pressure medicine) with celecoxib (an anti-inflammatory). The piece that matters here is the amlodipine, which works to lower your blood pressure. Wine can pull things in two directions. Drinking regularly tends to raise blood pressure over time, which can work against your medicine and make it harder to keep your numbers where you want them.

On the flip side, a larger amount of alcohol at once can drop your pressure too far when combined with amlodipine, leaving you dizzy, lightheaded, or flushed, especially when you stand up. An occasional glass usually isn't a big deal, but it's worth checking with your pharmacist or doctor about what's right for you.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Amlodipine, Celecoxib page

“Grapefruit is the risk I would want a Consensi patient to grasp first. Consensi pairs amlodipine and celecoxib to treat high blood pressure and arthritis pain, and grapefruit blocks the enzyme that clears amlodipine, raising its levels.”

About Wine

What is Wine?

  • Social and relaxation use
  • Heart health (popular belief)
  • Antioxidant intake
  • Aiding digestion (traditional use)
  • Culinary flavoring

Wine is an alcoholic beverage made from fermented grapes and is not a true dietary supplement or medicine. Despite popular claims about heart benefits, the alcohol it contains carries real health risks, and no amount of drinking can be recommended to improve health. If you drink, do so in moderation, and avoid alcohol entirely during pregnancy or if you have certain medical conditions.
