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.

Sintesi

Sulfasalazine contains a sulfonamide-type moiety, and sulfonamide antibacterials are known to potentiate sulfonylurea hypoglycemia. Reports with sulfasalazine are sparse, but an enhanced glucose-lowering effect of chlorpropamide is plausible, and chlorpropamide's long half-life makes prolonged hypoglycemia a concern.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Chlorpropamide and Sulphasalazine 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.

Chlorpropamide belongs to Endocrine; Sulphasalazine belongs to Gastrointestinal Tract.

Livello di evidenza: Low

Perché avviene

Possible displacement from plasma protein binding and/or reduced sulfonylurea clearance; the mechanism is not well established for sulfasalazine.

Cosa fare

Monitor blood glucose more frequently when sulfasalazine is started or stopped in patients on chlorpropamide. Reduce the sulfonylurea dose if hypoglycemia occurs and counsel the patient on its symptoms.
