Consumer:

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.GENERALLY AVOID: Concomitant or recent use of immunosuppressant, immunomodulating, or antineoplastic agents in patients treated with natalizumab may increase the risk of infections including progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a severely disabling, potentially fatal opportunistic viral infection of the brain. In clinical trials, PML occurred in two of 1869 patients with multiple sclerosis treated with natalizumab for a median of 120 weeks and one of 1043 patients with Crohn's disease after eight doses of natalizumab. Both of the MS patients were receiving concomitant interferon beta therapy, and the third patient was immunocompromised due to recent treatment with azathioprine. In the postmarketing setting, additional cases of PML have been reported in patients who were receiving no concomitant immunomodulatory therapy. Longer treatment duration of natalizumab, especially beyond 2 years, and the presence of anti-JC virus antibodies are additional risk factors for the development of PML. Other potentially serious or life-threatening infections that may occur include herpes encephalitis or meningitis and opportunistic infections such as pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, pulmonary mycobacterium avium intracellulare, bronchopulmonary aspergillosis, and Burkholderia cepacia. MANAGEMENT: The safety and efficacy of natalizumab in combination with immunosuppressant, immunomodulating, antineoplastic or other myelosuppressive agents have not been established. In general, patients receiving chronic therapy with such agents should not be treated with natalizumab due to potentially increased risk of PML and other serious infections. For patients with Crohn's disease who start natalizumab while on chronic corticosteroid therapy, begin steroid withdrawal as soon as a therapeutic benefit is achieved. Natalizumab should be discontinued if patient is unable to stop using systemic corticosteroids within six months. All patients treated with natalizumab should be monitored closely during and for at least six months following discontinuation of treatment. The drug should be discontinued immediately at the first sign or symptom suggestive of PML, although it is not known if early detection of PML and discontinuation of natalizumab will mitigate the disease. Typical symptoms associated with PML are diverse, progress over days to weeks, and include progressive weakness on one side of the body, clumsiness of limbs, disturbance of vision, and changes in thinking, memory, and orientation leading to confusion and personality changes. Due to the long half-life of natalizumab, immune effects are possible for up to 2 to 3 months following its discontinuation. References "Product Information. Tysabri (natalizumab)."
