Resumo

Arsenic trioxide markedly prolongs the QT interval and has been linked to torsades de pointes. Adding amisulpride, which also prolongs QTc, increases the risk of life-threatening arrhythmia.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Amisulpride and Arsenic trioxide 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.

Amisulpride belongs to Central Nervous System; Arsenic trioxide belongs to Oncology.

Nível de evidência: Moderate

Por que acontece

Additive prolongation of cardiac repolarization through effects on cardiac ion channels such as hERG.

O que fazer

Avoid concurrent use and choose an alternative antipsychotic or antiemetic with lower QT risk. If unavoidable, monitor ECG continuously and keep potassium and magnesium in the normal range.
