When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug use in presence of concomitant diseases.

Consumer:

The use of sodium phosphates is contraindicated in patients with congenital megacolon, intestinal obstruction, imperforate anus, active inflammatory disease or congestive heart failure. Serious, potentially life-threatening electrolyte imbalance such as hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia can result with prolonged or excessive use of phosphate laxatives. Hypernatremia and dehydration can occur due to improper dilution of hypertonic saline laxatives. Therapy with sodium phosphates should be administered cautiously and frequency of administration limited in patients with renal dysfunction, colostomy, cardiac dysfunction, or electrolyte imbalance. Clinical monitoring of electrolyte concentrations is recommended.
