Resumo
Correcting hyperthyroidism with methimazole slows the catabolism of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors. As a result the anticoagulant effect of vitamin K antagonists such as phenindione tends to fall as the patient becomes euthyroid. Starting or stopping methimazole can therefore change INR control.
O que esta interação significa em palavras simples
Methimazole and Phenindione 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
Normalization of thyroid state reduces clotting factor turnover, which diminishes the response to vitamin K antagonists.
O que fazer
Monitor INR more frequently when methimazole is started, changed or stopped. Adjust the phenindione dose to maintain the target INR.
O que perguntar ao farmacêutico
- Should I take them at different times of day?
- Does the dose of either medicine need to change?
- Is there anything I should avoid, such as alcohol or certain foods, while on both?
