* conivaptan (Vaprisol);
* digoxin (Lanoxin, digitalis);
* diclofenac (Arthrotec, Cataflam, Voltaren, Flector Patch, Solareze);
* imatinib (Gleevec);
* isoniazid (for treating tuberculosis);

* an antidepressant such as nefazodone;
* an antibiotic such as clarithromycin (Biaxin), dalfopristin/quinupristin (Synercid), erythromycin (E.E.S., EryPed, Ery-Tab, Erythrocin), or telithromycin (Ketek);
* an antifungal medication such as clotrimazole (Mycelex Troche), itraconazole (Sporanox), ketoconazole (Nizoral), or voriconazole (Vfend);
* cholesterol-lowering medicines such as atorvastatin (Lipitor), fenofibrate (Antara, Lipofen, TriCor), gemfibrozil (Lopid), simvastatin (Zocor), lovastatin (Mevacor), pravastatin (Pravachol), and others;
