Resumo

Phenytoin substantially reduces cabotegravir concentrations, which may cause loss of virologic response and integrase inhibitor resistance. This applies to oral and long-acting injectable forms.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Cabotegravir and Phenytoin 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.

Cabotegravir belongs to Anti Virals; Phenytoin belongs to Central Nervous System.

Nível de evidência: High

Por que acontece

Phenytoin induces UGT1A1 and UGT1A9, the main enzymes eliminating cabotegravir.

O que fazer

Do not co-administer; select a non-inducing anticonvulsant. Inducer effects can persist for weeks after phenytoin is stopped, so delay cabotegravir accordingly.
