Relevance: 03.08.2023 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:

Terfenadine is no longer on the market in the US. Do not take terfenadine with any other medication.

Professional:

GENERALLY AVOID: Zileuton has been shown to decrease the clearance of terfenadine by approximately 35% in one small study. The resultant increase in serum concentrations did not produce significant changes in ECG recordings and QTc intervals in healthy volunteers.

MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer recommends that these drugs not be coadministered due the high inter-individual variability of terfenadine pharmacokinetics.
