Consumer:CarBAMazepine may reduce the blood levels of dronedarone, which may make the medication less effective in treating your condition. 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:GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations and pharmacologic effects of dronedarone, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. According to the product labeling for dronedarone, administration with the potent inducer rifampin led to an 80% decrease in dronedarone systemic exposure (AUC).
MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of dronedarone with potent CYP450 3A4 inducers such as carbamazepine, enzalutamide, lumacaftor, mitotane, phenobarbital, phenytoin, primidone (partially metabolized to phenobarbital), rifamycins, and St. John's wort should generally be avoided. The extent to which other, less potent CYP450 3A4 inducers may interact with dronedarone is unknown. Caution is advised if they are used with dronedarone.
