Trancot and Zulresso

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 central nervous system (CNS) depressants (e.g., alcohol, benzodiazepines, opioids) or antidepressants may enhance the sedative effects of brexanolone and increase the likelihood or severity of sedation-related adverse reactions. Patients treated with brexanolone are at risk of excessive sedation or sudden loss of consciousness during administration. In clinical studies, 5% of patients receiving brexanolone infusion experienced sedation and somnolence that required dose interruption, compared to 0% of patients receiving placebo. Some patients also reported to have loss of consciousness or altered state of consciousness during the brexanolone infusion (4% vs. 0%). All patients recovered from loss or altered state of consciousness after dose interruption, with full recovery time ranging from 15 to 60 minutes. There was no clear association between loss or alteration of consciousness and pattern or timing of dose. Not all patients who experienced a loss or alteration of consciousness reported sedation or somnolence before the episode. MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised during concomitant use of brexanolone with CNS depressants, antidepressants, or other agents that cause sedation. Patients should be closely monitored for excessive sedation and sudden loss of consciousness and have continuous pulse oximetry monitoring. During the brexanolone infusion, monitor for sedative effects every 2 hours during planned, non-sleep periods, and immediately stop the infusion if there are signs or symptoms of excessive sedation. After symptoms resolve, the infusion may be resumed at the same or lower dose as clinically appropriate. If pulse oximetry reveals hypoxia, immediately stop the infusion and do not resume infusion following resolution of the hypoxia. Patients should be cautioned against driving, operating machinery, or engaging in potentially hazardous activities requiring mental alertness and motor coordination until sedative effects of brexanolone and other concomitant medications have dissipated. Patients must be accompanied during interactions with their child(ren) while receiving brexanolone because of the potential for excessive sedation and sudden loss of consciousness.
