概要
Febuxostat inhibits xanthine oxidase and can raise levels of azathioprine's active metabolite, potentially causing severe bone marrow suppression. Labeling advises against use together because no safe dosing strategy is established. Patients with renal impairment or low TPMT activity are at particular risk.
この相互作用をわかりやすく説明すると
Azathioprine and Febuxostat 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.
Azathioprine belongs to Gastrointestinal Tract; Febuxostat belongs to Genitourinary.
なぜ起こるのか
Febuxostat inhibits xanthine oxidase, which is needed to inactivate 6-mercaptopurine, leading to accumulation of active thiopurine metabolites.
対処法
Do not combine. Use an alternative urate-lowering approach, such as allopurinol with a substantial azathioprine dose reduction and close blood count monitoring, or another agent.
