Interaction entre Clobazam et Quétiapine

Prescribe the lowest effective dosage; avoid or minimize concomitant use of CNS depressants and other substances associated with abuse, misuse, and addiction (e.g., opioid analgesics, stimulants); and advise patients on the proper disposal of unused drug.

Risk may be increased with concomitant use of other CNS depressants ( 5.4 , 5.5 )

Potentiation of Sedation from Concomitant Use with Central Nervous System Depressants Since SYMPAZAN ® has a central nervous system (CNS) depressant effect, patients or their caregivers should be cautioned against simultaneous use with other CNS depressant drugs or alcohol, and cautioned that the effects of other CNS depressant drugs or alcohol may be potentiated…

Prescribers should monitor patients for somnolence and sedation, particularly with concomitant use of other central nervous system depressants.

CNS Depressants and Alcohol Concomitant use of SYMPAZAN ® with other CNS depressants may increase the risk of sedation and somnolence [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ].

• Concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 inducers: Increase quetiapine dose up to 5 fold when used in combination with a chronic treatment (more than 7-14 days) of potent CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., phenytoin, rifampin, St.

• Discontinuation of strong CYP3A4 inducers: Reduce quetiapine dose by 5‑fold within 7-14 days of discontinuation of CYP3A4 inducers ( 2.6 , 7.1 , 12.3 )

Quetiapine exposure is increased by the prototype CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, itraconazole, indinavir, ritonavir, nefazodone, etc.) and decreased by the prototype of CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., phenytoin, carbamazepine, rifampin, avasimibe, St.

John’s wort etc.). Dose adjustment of quetiapine will be necessary if it is co-administered with potent CYP3A4 inducers or inhibitors.

CYP3A4 inducers: Coadministration of quetiapine and phenytoin, a CYP3A4 inducer increased the mean oral clearance of quetiapine by 5-fold.
