Resumo
Vitamin C mobilizes storage iron and makes more of it available for chelation by deferoxamine, increasing iron excretion. In iron-overloaded patients, especially with cardiac disease, high-dose vitamin C has been linked to cardiac decompensation and arrhythmia.
O que esta interação significa em palavras simples
Ascorbic acid and Deferoxamine 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
Ascorbic acid increases the pool of chelatable iron, and the redox-active iron released may cause cardiac toxicity.
O que fazer
Avoid ascorbic acid in patients with cardiac dysfunction on deferoxamine. If used in others, start only after deferoxamine is established, keep doses low and give it with the infusion, with cardiac monitoring.
