概要
Carbapenems, including imipenem, rapidly and markedly lower serum valproate concentrations, which can lead to loss of seizure control. The effect begins within a day or two and may persist for some days after stopping the carbapenem.
この相互作用をわかりやすく説明すると
Cilastatin-imipenem and Valproic acid 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.
Cilastatin-imipenem belongs to Anti Bacterial; Valproic acid belongs to Central Nervous System.
なぜ起こるのか
Carbapenems inhibit hydrolysis of valproate glucuronide and may reduce its absorption and distribution, lowering valproate levels.
対処法
Avoid the combination and use a non-carbapenem antibiotic. Increasing the valproate dose is usually ineffective, so add or switch to another anticonvulsant if a carbapenem is unavoidable.
