التداخل بين أميودارون وموكسيفلوكساسين

Reserve the combination of amiodarone with other antiarrhythmic therapies that prolong the QTc to patients with life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias who are incompletely responsive to a single agent.

Table 5: Amiodarone Drug Interactions Concomitant Drug Class/Name Examples Clinical Comment QT Prolonging Drugs class I and III antiarrhythmics, lithium, certain phenothiazines, tricyclic antidepressants, certain fluoroquinolone and macrolide antibiotics, azole antifungals, halogenated inhalation anesthetic agents Increased risk of Torsade de Pointes.

CYP450 Inhibitors Grapefruit juice, certain fluoroquinolone and macrolide antibiotics, azole antifungals, cimetidine Increased exposure of amiodarone.

Therefore, moxifloxacin should be avoided with Class IA and Class III antiarrhythmics [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.6 ), Nonclinical Toxicology ( 13.2 ), and Patient Counseling Information ( 17 )].

The drug should be avoided in patients with known prolongation of the QT interval, patients with uncorrected hypokalemia and patients receiving Class IA (for example, quinidine, procainamide) or Class III (for example, amiodarone, sotalol) antiarrhythmic agents, due to the lack of clinical experience with the drug in these patient populations.

Pharmacokinetic studies between moxifloxacin and other drugs that prolong the QT interval such as cisapride, erythromycin, antipsychotics, and tricyclic antidepressants have not been performed.

Class IA and Class III antiarrhythmics: Proarrhythmic effect may be enhanced.

Drugs that Prolong QT There is limited information available on the potential for a pharmacodynamic interaction in humans between moxifloxacin and other drugs that prolong the QTc interval of the electrocardiogram.
