Griseofulvin has been associated with breakthrough bleeding, menstrual irregularities and reduced reliability of combined hormonal contraceptives. This may result in unintended pregnancy. Griseofulvin is also teratogenic, which heightens the importance of reliable contraception.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Desogestrel-ethinyl estradiol and Griseofulvin 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.

Desogestrel-ethinyl estradiol belongs to Endocrine; Griseofulvin belongs to Anti Fungals.

Livello di evidenza: Moderate

Perché avviene

Griseofulvin is thought to induce hepatic enzymes, including CYP3A4, increasing metabolism of contraceptive steroids.
