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

Fosphenytoin is converted to phenytoin, a potent inducer of intestinal P-glycoprotein and other enzymes, which can substantially lower sofosbuvir and ledipasvir exposure. This may lead to loss of antiviral efficacy and hepatitis C treatment failure or resistance.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Fosphenytoin and Ledipasvir-sofosbuvir 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.

Fosphenytoin belongs to Central Nervous System; Ledipasvir-sofosbuvir belongs to Anti Virals.

Livello di evidenza: Moderate

Perché avviene

Phenytoin induces intestinal P-glycoprotein, reducing absorption and plasma concentrations of sofosbuvir and ledipasvir.

Cosa fare

Do not co-administer. Switch to a non-inducing antiepileptic such as levetiracetam before starting the hepatitis C regimen, under neurology guidance.
