Résumé

Both components prolong the QT interval, and the combination with dronedarone increases torsades risk. Artemether is also a CYP3A4 substrate with possible effects on dronedarone exposure, though QT additivity is the main concern.

Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples

Artemether / lumefantrine and Dronedarone are not normally used together. Taking them at the same time is expected to cause harm or make one of them unsafe, so a different medicine is usually chosen for one of the two.

Niveau de preuve: Moderate

Pourquoi elle survient

Additive QT prolongation, with possible CYP3A4-mediated pharmacokinetic effects.

Conduite à tenir

Avoid the combination; use an antimalarial without QT liability or withhold dronedarone if treatment is essential, with ECG monitoring.
