Everolimus and Ritonavir: contraindicated interaction.

Ultimo aggiornamento

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.

Il contenuto clinico di questa pagina è disponibile solo in inglese.

Sintesi

Ritonavir strongly inhibits CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein and can markedly raise everolimus exposure. This increases the risk of mTOR inhibitor toxicity such as infections, myelosuppression, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, stomatitis and pneumonitis.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Everolimus and Ritonavir 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.

Everolimus belongs to Oncology; Ritonavir belongs to Anti Virals.

Livello di evidenza: High

Perché avviene

Ritonavir inhibits intestinal and hepatic CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein, reducing everolimus clearance and increasing absorption.

Cosa fare

Avoid concomitant use and select an antiretroviral regimen without strong CYP3A4 inhibition. If unavoidable, use only with specialist oversight, major everolimus dose reduction and therapeutic drug monitoring.

Cosa chiedere al farmacista
