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:

Anagrelide undergoes extensive metabolism in the liver, with less than 1% recovered unchanged in the urine. Therapy with anagrelide should be administered cautiously in patients with liver disease (bilirubin, SGOT, or other liver measurements greater than 1.5 times normal) and only when the benefits outweigh the risks. Monitoring for signs of liver toxicity is recommended.
