Ultimo aggiornamento

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

Carbamazepine is a potent inducer of P-glycoprotein and of several CYP enzymes, and it can substantially lower plasma concentrations of sofosbuvir and velpatasvir. This may lead to loss of antiviral activity and treatment failure or resistance. The combination is not recommended in labeling.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Carbamazepine and Sofosbuvir-velpatasvir 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.

Carbamazepine belongs to Central Nervous System; Sofosbuvir-velpatasvir belongs to Anti Virals.

Livello di evidenza: High

Perché avviene

Carbamazepine induces P-gp and CYP2B6, CYP2C8 and CYP3A4, increasing clearance and reducing absorption of sofosbuvir and velpatasvir.

Cosa fare

Avoid the combination and switch to an anticonvulsant without enzyme-inducing activity, such as levetiracetam, if clinically possible. If it cannot be avoided, consult a hepatology or infectious disease specialist and confirm sustained virologic response.
