Resumo
Sodium picosulfate is a prodrug activated by colonic bacteria to its laxative form. Antibiotics that suppress colonic flora may reduce this activation and lead to a poorer bowel cleansing before colonoscopy. Systemically given cefepime has less gut effect than oral antibiotics, but labeling still cautions about antibiotics.
O que esta interação significa em palavras simples
Cefepime and Sodium picosulfate / magnesium oxide / anhydrous citric acid 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.
Por que acontece
Antibiotic suppression of colonic bacteria needed to convert sodium picosulfate to its active metabolite.
