Resumo

Deflazacort suppresses cellular immunity, so the live attenuated BCG organism may replicate unchecked and cause local or disseminated BCG infection. Vaccine response may also be blunted, leaving the patient inadequately protected.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Bcg vaccine live and Deflazacort 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.

Nível de evidência: High

Por que acontece

Glucocorticoid-induced immunosuppression impairs control of the live attenuated organism and reduces the immune response to the vaccine.

O que fazer

Do not give BCG to patients on immunosuppressive doses of deflazacort; defer vaccination until corticosteroid therapy has been stopped for the interval stated in the product labeling. Use an alternative preventive strategy if protection is needed urgently.
