Relevance: 24.12.2022 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:

Lorcaserin may increase the blood levels and effects of chlorpheniramine. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. Contact your doctor if you experience increased side effects or your condition changes. 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: Coadministration with lorcaserin may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are primarily metabolized by CYP450 2D6. The mechanism is decreased clearance due to inhibition of CYP450 2D6 activity by lorcaserin. In a study consisting of 21 CYP450 2D6 extensive metabolizers, administration of the probe substrate dextromethorphan in combination with lorcaserin 10 mg twice daily for 4 days increased dextromethorphan peak concentrations (Cmax) by approximately 76% and systemic exposure (AUC) by approximately 2-fold.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if lorcaserin is prescribed concomitantly with medications that undergo metabolism by CYP450 2D6, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever lorcaserin is added to or withdrawn from therapy.
