Gravità: Controindicata

Bosentan and Cyclosporine: contraindicated interaction.

Ultimo aggiornamento Fonti: US FDA label

Per operatori sanitari — solo a scopo di riferimento. Questa pagina è una sintesi breve, non è un parere medico e non sostituisce il RCP ufficiale né il giudizio clinico. Verificare sempre prima di prescrivere o dispensare.

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

Sintesi

Cyclosporine markedly increases bosentan plasma concentrations, while bosentan lowers cyclosporine levels. The rise in bosentan raises the risk of hepatotoxicity, and reduced cyclosporine can compromise immunosuppression and risk graft rejection. Labeling advises against concomitant use.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Bosentan and Cyclosporine 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.

Livello di evidenza: High

Perché avviene

Cyclosporine inhibits OATP-mediated hepatic uptake and CYP3A4 metabolism of bosentan, while bosentan induces CYP3A4, accelerating cyclosporine metabolism.

Cosa fare

Do not co-administer; select an alternative pulmonary hypertension therapy, such as a PDE5 inhibitor, if cyclosporine is required. If bosentan is already in use, discuss alternatives with the transplant and pulmonary hypertension teams before starting cyclosporine.
