Neoral and Probucol

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.

Using probucol together with cycloSPORINE may decrease the effects of cycloSPORINE. Contact your doctor if your condition changes. If your doctor does prescribe these medications together, you may need a dose adjustment or special test 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.

MONITOR: The concomitant administration of probucol may modestly decrease oral cyclosporine concentrations. The mechanism is unknown. Subtherapeutic cyclosporine levels may increase the risk of rejection in transplant patients.
