Sintesi
Pexidartinib carries a boxed warning for serious and potentially fatal liver injury, and methyldopa is also a recognised cause of hepatotoxicity. Using both together may raise the likelihood or severity of liver injury.
Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici
Methyldopa and Pexidartinib 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.

Perché avviene
