पोसाकोनाज़ोल और ज़िप्रासिडोन का इंटरैक्शन

…drugs, ziprasidone is contraindicated: • in patients with a known history of QT prolongation (including congenital long QT syndrome) • in patients with recent acute myocardial infarction • in patients with uncompensated heart failure Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic studies between ziprasidone and other drugs that prolong the QT interval have not been performed.

An additive effect of ziprasidone and other drugs that prolong the QT interval cannot be excluded.

QT Prolongation and Risk of Sudden Death Ziprasidone use should be avoided in combination with other drugs that are known to prolong the QTc interval [see Contraindications (4.1) and Drug Interactions (7.4) ].

Ketoconazole Ketoconazole, a potent inhibitor of CYP3A4, at a dose of 400 mg QD for 5 days, increased the AUC and C max of ziprasidone by about 35 to 40%.

Other inhibitors of CYP3A4 would be expected to have similar effects.

Concomitant Use with Midazolam : Noxafil can prolong hypnotic/sedative effects.

Increased plasma midazolam concentrations could potentiate and prolong hypnotic and sedative effects.

Benzodiazepines that are CYP3A4 Substrates Mechanism and Clinical Effect(s) Concomitant use of posaconazole with midazolam increased midazolam plasma concentrations which could potentiate and prolong hypnotic and sedative effects [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] .
