摘要
Seizures have been reported when ganciclovir is combined with imipenem-cilastatin, and valacyclovir's active metabolite acyclovir may carry a similar though less documented concern. Both drug classes can lower seizure threshold, especially in renal impairment.
用白話說明這項交互作用的意義
Cilastatin-imipenem and Valacyclovir 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.

為什麼會發生
The mechanism is not established and is likely additive lowering of seizure threshold.
