Inrebic and Methergine

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: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of ergot derivatives, which are primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. The interaction has occurred in patients receiving ergotamine or dihydroergotamine with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors such as macrolide antibiotics and protease inhibitors. Clinical ergotism has been reported, which can lead to gangrene and myocardial infarction in severe cases. Even small, single doses of ergotamine have resulted in clinically significant interactions, occasionally resulting in surgical amputation or death. No data are available for other, less potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised during concomitant use of ergot derivatives with mild or moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be monitored for potential ergot toxicity including peripheral vasospasm, ischemia, thrombosis, tachycardia, and hypertension.
