Check result:
Accretropin <> Paclitaxel
Relevance: 25.06.2023 Reviewer: Shkutko P.M., M.D., in

In the database of official manuals used in the service creation an interaction registered by statistical results of studies was found, which can either lead to negative consequences for the patient health or strengthen a mutual positive effect. A doctor should be consulted to address the issue of joint drug administration.

Consumer:

Somatropin may reduce the blood levels of PACLitaxel in some patients, which may make the medication less effective in treating your cancer. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring to safely use both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Professional:

MONITOR: Theoretically, coadministration with drugs that are inducers of CYP450 2C8 and/or 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of paclitaxel, which is metabolized by these isoenzymes.

MANAGEMENT: Clinicians should recognize the potential for interaction with drugs that induce CYP450 2C8 and/or 3A4 and monitor for evidence of reduced therapeutic response to paclitaxel during coadministration.
