Résumé

Clarithromycin may increase dabrafenib plasma concentrations, raising the risk of adverse effects such as pyrexia, rash and QT prolongation. Dabrafenib itself is a CYP3A4 inducer, which can also lower clarithromycin exposure.

Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples

Clarithromycin and Dabrafenib 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.

Clarithromycin belongs to Anti Bacterial; Dabrafenib belongs to Oncology.

Niveau de preuve: Moderate

Pourquoi elle survient

Clarithromycin inhibits CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein, reducing the metabolism of dabrafenib, which is a CYP3A4 and CYP2C8 substrate.

Conduite à tenir

Prefer an alternative antibiotic such as azithromycin. If it cannot be avoided, monitor closely for dabrafenib toxicity and QTc, and reduce the dabrafenib dose if adverse effects emerge.
