Sintesi

Mitotane is a strong CYP3A4 inducer and can substantially lower aripiprazole concentrations, risking loss of psychiatric control. The induction can persist for weeks after mitotane is stopped.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Aripiprazole and Mitotane 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.

Aripiprazole belongs to Central Nervous System; Mitotane belongs to Oncology.

Livello di evidenza: Moderate

Perché avviene

Induction of CYP3A4 increases aripiprazole clearance.

Cosa fare

Aripiprazole labeling advises roughly doubling the dose with strong CYP3A4 inducers; titrate by clinical response. Reduce the dose again if mitotane is discontinued.
