You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor 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:

MONITOR: Isoniazid may increase the pharmacologic effects of benzodiazepines by decreasing clearance and increasing half-life. The mechanism is related to the inhibition of CYP450 3A4 hepatic oxidative metabolism of benzodiazepines.

MANAGEMENT: Patients on concomitant therapy should be monitored for altered benzodiazepine effects. Dosage reductions may be appropriate if patients experience prolonged or excessive CNS-depressant effects.
