Sintesi

Lemborexant is metabolized mainly by CYP3A4, and inhibitors increase its exposure. This may cause excessive somnolence, next-day impairment and complex sleep behaviors.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Chloramphenicol and Lemborexant 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.

Chloramphenicol belongs to Anti Bacterial; Lemborexant belongs to Central Nervous System.

Livello di evidenza: Moderate

Perché avviene

Chloramphenicol inhibits CYP3A4, reducing lemborexant clearance.
