摘要
Rifampicin is a strong enzyme inducer that substantially lowers hormonal contraceptive levels, risking contraceptive failure. With thalidomide, a pregnancy would carry a risk of severe birth defects.
用白話說明這項交互作用的意義
Rifampicin and Thalidomide 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.
Rifampicin belongs to Anti Bacterial; Thalidomide belongs to Miscellaneous.
為什麼會發生
Induction of CYP3A4 and other enzymes by rifampicin increases contraceptive hormone metabolism.
處置方式
Do not depend on hormonal contraceptives; use a non-hormonal highly effective method such as a copper IUD plus a barrier method during and for several weeks after rifampicin.
