Résumé
Cholestyramine binds mycophenolic acid and interrupts its enterohepatic recirculation, which lowers exposure. This can reduce immunosuppression and raise the risk of rejection in transplant patients.
Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples
Cholestyramine and Mycophenolate 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
Binding in the gut reduces absorption and enterohepatic recycling of mycophenolic acid.
Conduite à tenir
Avoid concurrent use where possible; if cholestyramine is needed, consider alternatives. Monitor graft function and mycophenolic acid exposure if used together.
