Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici
Dimercaprol and Ferrous sulfate 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.
Perché avviene
Dimercaprol forms a chelate with iron that is toxic and may worsen toxicity rather than promoting safe elimination.
Cosa fare
Do not use dimercaprol to treat iron overload or iron poisoning; use deferoxamine instead. Hold iron supplements while dimercaprol is being given.
