Resumo
Cyclosporine raises atorvastatin exposure markedly through OATP1B1 and CYP3A4 inhibition, increasing the risk of myopathy and rhabdomyolysis, and may also raise amlodipine levels. Amlodipine can modestly increase cyclosporine trough concentrations.
O que esta interação significa em palavras simples
Amlodipine-atorvastatin and Cyclosporine 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.
Por que acontece
