Complex formation Click to Show/Hide Mechanism Graph
Drug Name		Copper gluconate				Baloxavir marboxil
Mechanism		Polyvalent cations				Binds to polyvalent cations
Key Mechanism Factor 1
		Factor Name		Chelation
		Factor Description		Chelation is a direct drug interaction that usually involves the formation of dimers or trimers, resulting in larger complexes and poorer absorption.
Mechanism Description		Decreased absorption of Copper gluconate due to formation of complexes caused by Baloxavir marboxil

Recommended Action
Management		Concurrent administration of baloxavir marboxil with polyvalent cation-containing laxatives, antacids, or oral supplements (e.g., aluminum, calcium, iron, magnesium, selenium, zinc) should generally be avoided.
