Résumé

Intravenous erythromycin markedly raises ergotamine exposure, and this has led to acute ergotism with severe vasospasm and ischemia. Ergotamine labeling contraindicates its use with macrolide antibiotics.

Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples

Ergotamine and Erythromycin lactobionate 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.

Ergotamine belongs to Central Nervous System; Erythromycin lactobionate belongs to Anti Bacterial.

Niveau de preuve: High

Pourquoi elle survient

Erythromycin inhibits CYP3A4-mediated metabolism of ergotamine, increasing its systemic concentrations.

Conduite à tenir

Do not co-administer; withhold ergotamine while erythromycin is given or select a different antibiotic. Monitor for signs of peripheral ischemia if exposure occurs.
