摘要
Systemic pentamidine can prolong the QT interval and has been linked to torsades de pointes, and ziprasidone has similar effects. Using both increases the risk of serious ventricular arrhythmias. Pentamidine can also cause electrolyte disturbances that worsen this risk.
用白話說明這項交互作用的意義
Pentamidine and Ziprasidone 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.
Pentamidine belongs to Anti Parasitic; Ziprasidone belongs to Central Nervous System.
為什麼會發生
Additive QT prolongation through cardiac repolarization delay, with pentamidine-related hypokalemia or hypomagnesemia as a contributor.
處置方式
Avoid concurrent use; hold ziprasidone or choose another anti-infective if possible. If unavoidable, correct electrolytes beforehand and monitor ECG continuously.
