Resumo

Nilotinib and droperidol each prolong the QT interval, and together the effect is additive. Droperidol carries a boxed warning for QT prolongation and torsades de pointes, so adding nilotinib increases the arrhythmia risk substantially.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Droperidol and Nilotinib 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.

Nível de evidência: Moderate

Por que acontece

Additive QT prolongation through blockade of cardiac hERG potassium channels.

O que fazer

Avoid droperidol in patients taking nilotinib and use an antiemetic with less QT effect, such as a non-QT-prolonging alternative. If unavoidable, use only with continuous ECG monitoring and normal electrolytes.
