Relevance: 06.06.2023 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:

Using ketoconazole together with calcium carbonate can decrease the effects of ketoconazole. Talk with your doctor before using ketoconazole while you are using calcium carbonate. Separation of doses by two or more hours is recommended. 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:

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: The dissolution of oral ketoconazole requires an acidic environment. Medications that decrease the acidity of the stomach, such as omeprazole or H2 antagonists can reduce the bioavailability of ketoconazole by 75% to 80%. Antacids are also expected to impair ketoconazole absorption.

MANAGEMENT: It is recommended to administer antacids at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after ketoconazole. Patients should be monitored for altered antifungal effects and the ketoconazole dosage adjusted if necessary.
