Résumé
Rifampicin can lower mycophenolic acid exposure, which may reduce immunosuppression and raise the risk of rejection or graft-versus-host disease. The effect has been seen in transplant recipients and may emerge within days of starting rifampicin.
Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples
Mycophenolic acid and Rifampicin 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.
Mycophenolic acid belongs to Miscellaneous; Rifampicin belongs to Anti Bacterial.
Pourquoi elle survient
Rifampicin induces UGT enzymes and may alter enterohepatic recirculation of mycophenolic acid glucuronide, lowering its exposure.
