Sintesi

Vandetanib carries a boxed warning for QT prolongation, torsades de pointes and sudden death. Foscarnet adds QT liability and may cause electrolyte disturbances, making the combination particularly hazardous.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Foscarnet and Vandetanib 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.

Foscarnet belongs to Anti Virals; Vandetanib belongs to Oncology.

Livello di evidenza: Moderate

Perché avviene

Additive QT prolongation, with foscarnet-induced hypocalcemia, hypomagnesemia or hypokalemia further increasing risk.

Cosa fare

Avoid the combination; choose an alternative antiviral or defer vandetanib while foscarnet is needed. If unavoidable, monitor ECG and electrolytes very frequently and correct abnormalities immediately.
