==Drug Interactions==
 
====7.1 Heparin====
 
If argatroban is to be initiated after cessation of heparin therapy, allow sufficient time for heparin's effect on the [[aPTT]] to decrease prior to initiation of argatroban therapy.
 
====7.2 Oral Anticoagulant Agents====
 
Pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions between argatroban and [[warfarin]] (7.5 mg single oral dose) have not been demonstrated. However, the concomitant use of argatroban and [[warfarin]] (5 to 7.5 mg initial oral dose, followed by 2.5 to 6 mg/day orally for 6 to 10 days) results in prolongation of the [[prothrombin time]] (PT) and [[International Normalized Ratio]] (INR) [see Dosage and Administration (2.5) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.2)].
 
====7.3 Aspirin/Acetaminophen====
 
No drug-drug interactions have been demonstrated between argatroban and concomitantly administered [[aspirin]] or [[acetaminophen]] [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
 
====7.4 Thrombolytic Agents====
 
The safety and effectiveness of argatroban with thrombolytic agents have not been established [see Adverse Reactions (6.3)].
 
====7.5 Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Antagonists====
The safety and effectiveness of argatroban with glycoprotein [[IIb/IIIa]] antagonists have not been established.<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web  | last =  | first =  | title = ARGATROBAN INJECTION, SOLUTION [GLAXOSMITHKLINE LLC] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=9c9616c0-a299-4fd5-c8ae-79e6db453595 | publisher =  | date =  | accessdate = }}</ref>
