    IMPORTANT DRUG INTERACTIONS <\/H3>Potentially hazardous interactions with other drugs\n
  • Analgesics: increases concentration of celecoxib \u2013 halve celecoxib dose; increases concentration of parecoxib \u2013 reduce parecoxib dose; inhibits metabolism of alfentanil\n
  • Antibacterials: increases rifabutin levels \u2013 reduce dose; metabolism accelerated by rifampicin\n
  • Anticoagulants: potentiates effect of coumarins\n
  • Antidepressants: avoid concomitant use with reboxetineAntidiabetics: possibly enhances hypoglycaemic effect of nateglinide; increases concentration of sulphonylureas\n
  • Anti-epileptics: increases phenytoin levels; possibly increased carbamazepine concentration\n
  • Antimalarials: avoid concomitant administration with artemether\/lumefantrine\n
  • Antipsychotics: increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias with pimozide and sertindole \u2013 avoid concomitant use; possibly increase quetiapine levels \u2013 reduce dose of quetiapine\n
  • Antivirals: increases nevirapine, ritonavir, tipranavir and zidovudine levels, and possibly saquinavirAnxiolytics and hypnotics: increases midazolam levelsBosentan: increased bosentan levels \u2013 avoid concomitant use\n
  • Calcium-channel blockers: avoid with nisoldipine\n
  • Ciclosporin: increases blood\/serum ciclosporin levels\n
  • Diuretics: increased eplerenone levels \u2013 avoid concomitant use; concentration of fluconazole increased by hydrochlorothiazide\n
  • Ergot alkaloids: increased risk of ergotism \u2013 avoid concomitant useIvabradine: increased ivabradine levels \u2013 reduce initial doseLipid-lowering drugs: possibly increased risk of myopathy with atorvastatin or simvastatinSirolimus: may increase sirolimus concentration\n
  • Tacrolimus: increases blood\/serum tacrolimus levelsTheophylline: possibly increases theophylline levels

    ADMINISTRATION <\/H3>

    Reconstition<\/H4>\u2013

    Route <\/H4>Oral, IV

    Rate of Administration <\/H4>IV: 5\u201310 mL\/minute peripherally

    Comments<\/H4>Oral \u2261 IV dose. Very high bioavailability

    OTHER INFORMATION <\/H4>Oral bioavailability is 90% Approximately 50% is removed during a 3 hour haemodialysis sessionHas been used as adjunct to IV amphotericin and IP flucytosine in
  • CAPD &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp: peritonitisNo dose adjustment is required for single dose therapyRecurrent yeast peritonitis: flucytosine 2000 mg orally stat, then 1000 mg daily in addition to fluconazole 150 mg IP or 200 mg orally on alternate days. Remove Tenckhoff after 4\u20137 days if no responseDose of 800 mg is appropriate as long as dialysate flow rate is 2 L\/hour and treating a relatively resistant organism
