Sintesi

Cyclosporine strongly inhibits P-glycoprotein and caused very large increases in rifaximin systemic exposure in healthy volunteers. This could matter in patients with impaired gut barrier or liver disease, where rifaximin exposure is already higher.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Cyclosporine and Rifaximin 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.

Livello di evidenza: High

Perché avviene

Cyclosporine inhibition of P-glycoprotein markedly increases rifaximin absorption.

Cosa fare

Use together only if the benefit justifies it and monitor for rifaximin adverse effects. Avoid or reassess in patients with severe hepatic impairment.
