Résumé
Cyclosporine raises atorvastatin exposure markedly through OATP1B1 and CYP3A4 inhibition, increasing the risk of myopathy and rhabdomyolysis, and may also raise amlodipine levels. Amlodipine can modestly increase cyclosporine trough concentrations.
Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples
Amlodipine-atorvastatin and Cyclosporine can interact in a way that may be serious. Using them together is sometimes necessary, but it needs a deliberate decision by the prescriber, a plan for monitoring, and clear advice on the warning signs to watch for.
Pourquoi elle survient
Cyclosporine inhibits CYP3A4 and OATP1B1, and amlodipine may modestly raise cyclosporine levels through CYP3A4/P-gp effects.
Conduite à tenir
Avoid atorvastatin with cyclosporine, as labeling advises, and use an alternative statin at a restricted dose; monitor cyclosporine trough levels and blood pressure if amlodipine is used.
