O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Mitoxantrone and Trastuzumab 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.

Mitoxantrone belongs to Central Nervous System; Trastuzumab belongs to Oncology.

Additive cardiotoxicity from HER2 inhibition of cardiomyocyte survival signalling combined with mitoxantrone's direct myocardial damage; additive myelosuppression also contributes.
