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

Oritavancin artificially prolongs aPTT for many days, so unfractionated heparin monitoring becomes unreliable. This may lead to inappropriate dosing and bleeding or thrombosis.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Heparin and Oritavancin 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.

Heparin belongs to Cardiovascular; Oritavancin belongs to Anti Bacterial.

Livello di evidenza: High

Perché avviene

Oritavancin binds phospholipid reagents used in coagulation assays, causing laboratory interference rather than a true pharmacodynamic effect.

Cosa fare

Avoid IV unfractionated heparin for the period stated in labeling after oritavancin. Use an alternative anticoagulant monitored by a non-aPTT method if needed.

Cosa chiedere al farmacista

  • If both are essential, who is monitoring me and how often?
  • Which symptoms mean I should stop and seek help straight away?
