Résumé

Barbiturates are enzyme inducers that accelerate progestin metabolism and can lower etonogestrel concentrations enough to cause contraceptive failure. Unintended pregnancy has been reported with enzyme-inducing drugs and implants.

Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples

Butabarbital and Etonogestrel 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.

Niveau de preuve: Moderate

Pourquoi elle survient

Induction of hepatic CYP3A4 by butabarbital increases etonogestrel clearance.

Conduite à tenir

Use an alternative non-hormonal or non-induced-sensitive method such as a copper IUD or DMPA, or add condoms during and for several weeks after barbiturate use.
