Sintesi

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Fosphenytoin and Roflumilast 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.

Fosphenytoin belongs to Central Nervous System; Roflumilast belongs to Respiratory.

Livello di evidenza: Moderate

Perché avviene

Phenytoin induces CYP3A4 and CYP1A2, increasing roflumilast clearance.
