Resumo

Diltiazem is a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor and can raise lomitapide exposure several-fold. Higher lomitapide levels increase the risk of hepatotoxicity and gastrointestinal adverse effects. Labeling for lomitapide prohibits use with moderate and strong CYP3A4 inhibitors.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Diltiazem and Lomitapide 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.

Diltiazem belongs to Cardiovascular; Lomitapide belongs to Cardiovascular.

Nível de evidência: High

Por que acontece
