Sintesi
Thioridazine is strongly associated with dose-related QT prolongation and torsades de pointes, and its labeling contraindicates use with other QT-prolonging drugs. Adding levofloxacin compounds the arrhythmia risk.
Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici
Levofloxacin and Thioridazine 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.
Levofloxacin belongs to Anti Bacterial; Thioridazine belongs to Central Nervous System.
Perché avviene
Additive blockade of cardiac potassium channels causing marked delay in ventricular repolarization.
Cosa fare
Do not co-administer; select an antibiotic without QT liability. If a fluoroquinolone is unavoidable, thioridazine should be held under specialist guidance.
