Types of Drug Incompatibility
1. Therapeutic incompatibility
modification of the therapeutic effect of one drug by the prior
concomitant administration of another (Drug interactions).
2. Physical incompatibility
Interaction between two or more substances which lead to change
in color, odor, taste, viscosity and morphology (pharmaceutical incompatibilities).
3. Chemical incompatibility
Reaction between two or more substances which lead to change in
chemical properties of pharmaceutical dosage form.

Physical Incompatibility
• Insolubility– Change in pH
– Any change that may lead to precipitation of drugs and change in their properties.
Chemical Incompatibility
• Oxidation– Light → photo-chemical reactions
– pH : each drug has its ideal pH for stability. Any change in pH affect drug stability and may accelerate oxidation reaction.

• Physical incompatibilities result in visible (precipitate,color change, gas production) and invisible (sub-visibleparticles, variations in pH) reactions, and even in theabsence of precipitate could result in a significantreduction in the amount of drug delivered to thepatient.
• Chemical incompatibilities can lead to a decrease indrug delivery, drug degradation, and/or formation oftoxic products.

• Mixing incompatible medications is a major IVmedication error.
• Although critically ill patients usually have multiplecentral IV lines, several medications have to beinfused simultaneously through the same lines.
• Investigations have shown that mixing an IV drugwith the wrong diluents can occur in up to 80% ofthe cases.
• This is alarming especially in the ICU where 25% ofthe IV incompatibilities are highly significant and26% are life-threatening.

• Reaction of IV medications when mixed together resulting in solutions that are no longer optimal for the patient.
• The stability is altered by physico-chemical reactions leading to decreased effectiveness of the drug or an increased micro-particles load leading ultimately to therapeutic failure, catheter occlusion or embolism.

When the dilution or mixing of the salt or ionized formsof organic drugs results in precipitation, the most likelycause is formation of the non-ionized drug forms.
when ceftriaxone sodium isdiluted in lactated Ringer'sinjection, precipitation can occurdespite the alkaline pH of lactatedRinger's maintaining the ionized
water-soluble form of ceftriaxone.
The problem in this case is theformation of a poorly solublecalcium salt of
ceftriaxone, the ionized form ofwhich is a divalent anion.

IV drug compatibilities based on the pH
The pH of solution was one of the compatibility measure used in the establishment of standard concentrations of medications commonly given by continuous infusion and prepared at the bedside.

Medications admixture into a solution
could alter the pH to acidic or basic
depending on the solution buffer capacity.
• Normal Saline (NS) and Dextrose 5%
in water (D5W) solutions have low
buffer capacity, so that the solution
will turn acidic with the admixture of
an acidic medication, and it will turn
basic with the admixture of a basic
medication.
• Lactated Ringer’s (LR) solution has a
high buffer capacity, so that when
adding an acidic medication, the
solution will either remain neutral or
the pH will drop to a lesser extent
than that observed with NS or D5W
solution.

Furosemide-Midazolam incompatibility
• Even in the absence of visible particles, precipitation of furosemide led toa drug loss estimated at between 10 % and 15 %.
• Furosemide is more impacted by interaction because the pH of themixture is acid and this form is poorly soluble in an aqueous solution.
• Physical incompatibility between furosemide and midazolam leads to asignificant reduction in drug delivered to the patient and may result intreatment failure.
