摘要
Ribavirin may reduce the intracellular phosphorylation of zidovudine to its active form, potentially lowering antiretroviral activity. Both drugs also cause hematologic toxicity, so anemia and neutropenia may be worsened.
用白話說明這項交互作用的意義
Ribavirin and Zidovudine 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.
Ribavirin belongs to Anti Virals; Zidovudine belongs to Anti Virals.
為什麼會發生
Competition for intracellular phosphorylation reduces zidovudine activation, with additive bone marrow suppression.
處置方式
Avoid zidovudine in patients receiving ribavirin and use another nucleoside backbone; if unavoidable, monitor HIV viral load and complete blood counts closely.
