Sintesi
Buprenorphine can lengthen the QT interval, particularly at higher doses or in the transdermal form, and pimozide is a strongly QT-prolonging antipsychotic. The combination increases the risk of torsades de pointes.
Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici
Buprenorphine and Pimozide 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.
Buprenorphine belongs to Musculoskeletal; Pimozide belongs to Central Nervous System.
Perché avviene
Additive QTc prolongation
Cosa fare
