Sintesi
Orlistat inhibits intestinal lipases, which triheptanoin relies on to release heptanoate for absorption. Coadministration may reduce heptanoate availability and diminish the therapeutic effect of triheptanoin in fatty acid oxidation disorders.
Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici
Orlistat and Triheptanoin 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.
Orlistat belongs to Miscellaneous; Triheptanoin belongs to Gastrointestinal Tract.
Perché avviene
Inhibition of pancreatic and gastric lipases by orlistat reduces hydrolysis of triheptanoin to heptanoate.
