Resumo

Clarithromycin markedly increases ivabradine exposure, which can cause severe bradycardia, conduction disturbances and symptomatic hypotension. Clarithromycin itself can prolong the QT interval. Ivabradine labeling contraindicates concomitant use with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Clarithromycin and Ivabradine 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.

Clarithromycin belongs to Anti Bacterial; Ivabradine belongs to Cardiovascular.

Nível de evidência: High

Por que acontece

Clarithromycin is a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor that reduces first-pass and systemic metabolism of ivabradine, leading to excess heart rate lowering.

O que fazer

Do not combine. Choose an antibiotic that does not inhibit CYP3A4, such as azithromycin (with QT awareness) or a non-macrolide agent appropriate to the infection.
