सिटालोप्राम और एसोमेप्राज़ोल का इंटरैक्शन

Avoid use of Citalopram Capsules in CYP2C19 poor metabolizers, patients receiving concomitant cimetidine or another CYP2C19 inhibitor, patients with hepatic impairment, and patients who are greater than 60 years of age, because Citalopram Capsules are only available in a 30 mg dose strength and dosage adjustments are not possible [see Drug Interactions ( 7 ),…

CYP2C19 inhibitors and CYP2C19 poor metabolizers: Avoid concomitant use.

Intervention: Avoid concomitant use of Citalopram Capsules with CYP2C19 inhibitors [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )].

CYP2C19 Inhibitors Clinical Impact: Concomitant use of citalopram with CYP2C19 inhibitors increases the risk of QT prolongation and/or ventricular arrhythmias compared to the use of citalopram alone [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )].

2C19 Substrates (e.g., clopidogrel, citalopram, cilostazol) Clopidogrel Clinical Impact: Concomitant use of esomeprazole 40 mg resulted in reduced plasma concentrations of the active metabolite of clopidogrel and a reduction in platelet inhibition [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] .

Citalopram Clinical Impact: Increased exposure of citalopram leading to an increased risk of QT prolongation [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ].

Intervention: Limit the dose of citalopram to a maximum of 20 mg per day.
