Resumo

Cefepime-class cephalosporins such as cefpirome can cause neurotoxicity and lower the seizure threshold, particularly in renal impairment. Together with bupropion, which also lowers the seizure threshold, the risk of seizures may be increased.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Bupropion and Cefpirome can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.

Bupropion belongs to Central Nervous System; Cefpirome belongs to Anti Bacterial.

Por que acontece

Additive lowering of seizure threshold (cephalosporin GABA-A antagonism plus bupropion's proconvulsant effect).
