Sintesi
Lopinavir, boosted with ritonavir, markedly raises ergotamine exposure. This can cause ergotism with severe peripheral and cerebral vasospasm, leading to ischemia of the limbs, bowel or brain.
Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici
Ergotamine and Lopinavir are not normally used together. Taking them at the same time is expected to cause harm or make one of them unsafe, so a different medicine is usually chosen for one of the two.
Ergotamine belongs to Central Nervous System; Lopinavir belongs to Anti Virals.
Perché avviene
Inhibition of CYP3A4-mediated metabolism of ergotamine by the ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor.
Cosa fare
Do not co-administer; use a non-ergot acute migraine therapy such as a triptan-free alternative appropriate for the patient while on lopinavir/ritonavir. Seek urgent care if numbness, cold extremities or severe pain develop.
