Fedratinib Hydrochloride and Halfan

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 information for this interaction is not currently available.MONITOR CLOSELY: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of halofantrine, resulting in an increased risk of QT interval prolongation and ventricular arrhythmias. The mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4, the isoenzyme responsible for the metabolic clearance of halofantrine. Halofantrine has been associated with QT interval prolongation, ventricular arrhythmias, and sudden death, even at recommended dosages. MANAGEMENT: Caution and close monitoring is recommended if halofantrine is prescribed with CYP450 3A4 inhibitors, particularly potent ones like itraconazole, ketoconazole, posaconazole, voriconazole, clarithromycin, telithromycin, conivaptan, idelalisib, nefazodone, cobicistat, delavirdine, and most protease inhibitors. The manufacturer recommends performing an ECG before initiating halofantrine therapy and cardiac monitoring during and for 8 to 12 hours after completion of therapy.
