Below is general information about the safety of the known ingredients contained in the product Formula CX 1000 mg. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
LIKELY SAFE ...when adenosine is used intravenously and appropriately. Adenosine injection (Adenocard, Adenoscan) is an FDA-approved prescription drug (15).
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is used intravenously and appropriately. ATP appears to be safe in intravenous doses of 75 mcg/kg per minute for 30 hours given every 2 weeks for 28 weeks (9149,9154). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of adenosine when used orally or intramuscularly.
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using.
LIKELY SAFE ...when prescription pancreatic enzyme products are used orally and appropriately under the guidance of a healthcare professional (98667,98674,98676,98677,99115,99116,99118,99120,99122,99124)(99125,99126,99127). Prescription pancreatic enzyme products are typically initiated at a dose of 500-1000 lipase units/kg body weight per meal to a maximum of 2500 lipase units/kg body weight per meal or 4000 lipase units/gram of fat daily. Doses higher than 2500 lipase units/kg body weight per meal are prescribed only if medically necessary (99130).
POSSIBLY UNSAFE ...when prescription pancreatic enzyme products are used orally at doses over 2500 lipase units/kg body weight per meal or 10,000 lipase units/kg body weight daily. Higher doses, especially those greater than 6000 lipase units/kg body weight per meal, have been associated with fibrosing colonopathy (99130). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of supplemental forms of pancreatic enzyme products.
CHILDREN: LIKELY SAFE

Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using unless essential for replacement therapy (15).
Below is general information about the interactions of the known ingredients contained in the product Formula CX 1000 mg. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
Carbamazepine might increase the risk of heart block when used concomitantly with adenosine.
Details
Carbamazepine and adenosine can both cause heart block. Giving them concurrently might produce an additive effect (15).
|
Dipyridamole can increase the therapeutic and toxic effects of adenosine.
Details
Dipyridamole decreases the metabolism of adenosine. Intravenous infusion of adenosine in patients who are taking dipyridamole can cause dizziness, bradycardia, and syncope. Dipyridamole should be discontinued for several days prior to a cardiac stress test using adenosine (12209).
|
Methylxanthines are competitive antagonists of adenosine and can block its pharmacologic effects.
Details
|
Theoretically, pancreatic enzyme products may reduce the effects of acarbose.
Details
The digestive enzymes present in pancreatic enzyme products may break down acarbose, reducing its effects (9).

Below is general information about the adverse effects of the known ingredients contained in the product Formula CX 1000 mg. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
General
...Intravenously, the prescription form of adenosine can cause cardiovascular and respiratory adverse effects.
When used orally or intramuscularly, no adverse effects have been reported; however, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Intravenously: Chest pain, dizziness, dyspnea, facial flushing, headache, hypotension, nausea, nervousness, numbness, paresthesias, and tingling.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Intravenously: Arrhythmias, first- and second-degree heart block, hypersensitivity reactions, myocardial infarction, ST segment depression, and ventricular tachycardia.
Cardiovascular ...Intravenously, adenosine causes chest pain, palpitations, hypotension, and supraventricular tachycardia (15,9148). Intravenous adenosine has also been associated with arrhythmias, fatal or nonfatal cardiac arrest, ventricular tachycardia, and myocardial infarction (15). Intravenously, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) causes chest pain, particularly at doses greater than 50 mcg/kg per minute (9154).
Dermatologic ...Intravenously, adenosine causes flushing in up to 44% of patients in clinical research (15). Topically, folliculitis and pruritus can occur after application of adenosine to the scalp (93689).
Gastrointestinal ...Intravenously, adenosine can cause abdominal discomfort (15).
Neurologic/CNS ...Rapid intravenous injection of adenosine can cause headache, lightheadedness, insomnia, and anxiety (9148,9151,9152,9154,9158). New onset seizures, including tonic-clonic seizures, have also occurred (15). Intrathecally, adenosine has been reported to cause headache (9157).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...Intravenously, adenosine can cause dyspnea, bronchospasm, bronchoconstriction, and respiratory arrest (15). Intravenously, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) causes dyspnea, which can be severe, particularly at doses greater than 50 mcg/kg/minute (9154).
General
...Orally, prescription pancreatic enzyme products are generally well tolerated when used at prescribed doses in adults and children.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Prescription pancreatic enzyme products can cause abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, dry mouth, flatulence, irritation of the skin around the mouth and anus, nausea, steatorrhea, and vomiting.
Topically: Pancreatic enzyme product powder is irritating to the skin, eyes, mucus membranes, and respiratory tract. Pancreatic enzyme products that are held in the mouth prior to swallowing can cause irritation of the mucosa, including ulceration and stomatitis.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: Prescription pancreatic enzyme products can worsen glucose control. Extremely high doses have been associated with fibrosing colonopathy and high uric acid levels in blood and urine.
Topically: Inhalation of dust containing pancreatic enzyme products has been associated with asthma, bronchospasm, and pulmonary hypersensitivity reactions.
Dermatologic
...Orally, rash or skin conditions have been reported rarely in individuals taking prescription pancreatic enzyme products (67709,98667).
A pruritic rash occurred in one patient taking a prescription pancreatic enzyme product in one clinical trial; this event was considered by the investigators to be possibly related to treatment (98667). Erythema also occurred in an 84-year-old patient who had taken a digestive enzyme supplement containing pancreatic enzymes and other enzymes (67709). In a case report, taking a supplemental form of pancreatic enzymes also containing hemicellulose and dried ox bile extract powder (Festal, Handok Inc) was thought to be the cause of an acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP). The patient required an antihistamine and an oral and topical corticosteroid. Since this product contained more than one ingredient, the role of the pancreatic enzymes in this specific adverse event is unclear (98675).
Topically, exposure to pancreatic enzyme product powder is irritating to the skin. Hypersensitivity reactions such as skin rash have been reported (15).
Endocrine ...Orally, prescription pancreatic enzyme products may cause hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia in some patients (67622,98676,98677). In a double-blind trial of a prescription pancreatic enzyme product compared with placebo in patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer and associated pancreatic duct obstruction, one patient developed diabetes during the study period (67708).
Gastrointestinal
...Orally, prescription pancreatic enzyme products can cause abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, dry mouth, irritation of the skin around the mouth and anus, flatulence, nausea, steatorrhea, and vomiting.
However, these symptoms can be controlled by following prescription dosing recommendations (67617,67618,67645,67648,67651,67653,67657,67666,67714,98667)(98676,99115,99117,99123,99130). Doses of higher than 2500 lipase units/kg body weight per meal are not recommended unless medically necessary in order to prevent serious side effects, including fibrosing colonopathy and colonic strictures. These side effects are associated with the higher doses of lipase in prescription pancreatic enzyme products (2382,67677,67678,67679,67680,67682,67689,67690,67696,67701,99130).
Topically, pancreatic enzyme products that are held in the mouth prior to swallowing can cause irritation of the mucosa, including ulceration and stomatitis (15).
Hematologic ...Orally, severe neutropenia has been reported with a pancreatic enzyme product. In one case report, a 61-year-old patient taking a prescription pancreatic enzyme product for chronic pancreatitis developed agranulocytosis that persisted despite a trial of filgrastim. Upon discontinuation of the pancreatic enzyme product, marked improvement in neutropenia occurred within 7 days, with full resolution within 6 weeks (107411).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, headache and dizziness have been reported rarely in individuals taking prescription pancreatic enzyme products (67618,98667,99120).
Ocular/Otic ...Topically, exposure to pancreatic enzyme product powder is irritating to the eyes. Hypersensitivity reactions such as watery eyes have been reported (15).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...Topically, exposure to pancreatic enzyme product powder is irritating to the respiratory tract. Hypersensitivity reactions such as sneezing have been reported (15). Inhalation of dust containing pancreatic enzyme products has been associated with allergic rhinitis, asthma, bronchospasm, and pulmonary hypersensitivity reactions (11768,11769,67641).
Renal ...Orally, extremely high doses of pancreatic enzyme products containing more than 10,000 lipase units/kg body weight daily have been associated with high uric acid levels in blood and urine (67673,67693,67705). Rarely, kidney pain has been reported (98667).
