Resumo
Griseofulvin induces hepatic enzymes and can lower hormonal contraceptive exposure, which matters because thalidomide is a potent teratogen requiring highly reliable contraception. The interaction is with the contraceptive rather than with thalidomide itself.
O que esta interação significa em palavras simples
Griseofulvin and Thalidomide can interact in a way that may be serious. Using them together is sometimes necessary, but it needs a deliberate decision by the prescriber, a plan for monitoring, and clear advice on the warning signs to watch for.
Griseofulvin belongs to Anti Fungals; Thalidomide belongs to Miscellaneous.
Por que acontece
Enzyme induction by griseofulvin accelerates contraceptive hormone metabolism, reducing contraceptive efficacy.
O que fazer
In women of childbearing potential, do not rely on hormonal contraception alone during and for a period after griseofulvin; use an additional barrier method or a non-hormonal highly effective method such as an IUD.
