Il contenuto clinico di questa pagina è disponibile solo in inglese.

Sintesi

The live attenuated vaccine relies on a competent immune system to limit viral replication, and azathioprine (a purine-antimetabolite immunosuppressant) weakens that control. Disseminated vaccine-strain infection is possible and the antibody response to the vaccine may also be reduced.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Azathioprine and Measles mumps and rubella vaccine 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.

Azathioprine belongs to Gastrointestinal Tract; Measles mumps and rubella vaccine belongs to Miscellaneous.

Livello di evidenza: High

Perché avviene

Azathioprine-mediated immunosuppression allows replication of a live attenuated virus

Cosa fare

Do not give live vaccines during treatment; where possible, vaccinate at least 4 weeks before starting the immunosuppressant, and delay after stopping until immune function has recovered.
