Sintesi
Intravesical BCG is a live attenuated mycobacterium that must remain viable to act. Systemic antibiotics, particularly those with antimycobacterial activity, may reduce its effect. Imipenem has limited mycobacterial activity, but BCG labeling advises postponing unnecessary antimicrobials.
Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici
Bcg intravesical live and Cilastatin-imipenem can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.
Perché avviene
Antibacterial activity may reduce the viability and local immune-stimulating effect of live BCG.
Cosa fare
Defer elective antibiotic therapy during BCG instillations where possible. If an infection requires imipenem, consider holding the instillation until treatment is complete.
