Can you take Measles virus vaccine with Vivimusta?

The bendamustine in Vivimusta has a moderate potential interaction with Bone Marrow Depression/Low Blood Counts.

Adult and pediatric patients treated with bendamustine have experienced Infection, including pneumonia, sepsis, septic shock, and death. Patients with myelosuppression following treatment with bendamustine hydrochloride are more susceptible to infections. Therapy with bendamustine should be administered cautiously in patients with compromised bone marrow reserve. Monitor complete blood counts, including leukocytes, platelets, hemoglobin (Hgb), and neutrophils frequently.

The bendamustine in Vivimusta has a moderate potential interaction with Bone Marrow Depression/Low Blood Counts.

Infection, including pneumonia, sepsis, septic shock, hepatitis, and death has occurred in adult and pediatric patients treated with bendamustine. Care should be exercised when using this drug in patients whose bone marrow reserve may be severely depressed as these patients could be more susceptible to infections. Patients treated with this drug are at risk for reactivation of infections including (but not limited to) hepatitis B, cytomegalovirus, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and herpes zoster. It is recommended to advise patients with myelosuppression following treatment with this agent to contact a physician immediately if they have symptoms or signs of infection. Before starting treatment, patients should undergo appropriate measures (including clinical and laboratory monitoring, prophylaxis, and treatment) for infection and infection reactivation risks.

Measles virus vaccine has a major potential interaction with Fever.

Ideally, vaccination should occur when an individual is healthy, thus minimizing the risk of an adverse host reaction and/or vaccine failure. However, a current or recent infection does not necessarily preclude the use of vaccines, depending on the severity of the patient's symptoms and their etiology. Superficial infections and minor acute illnesses such as a mild upper respiratory infection with or without low-grade fever do not contraindicate immunization, particularly if prompt administration of a vaccine is deemed necessary or beneficial. In fact, when vaccines are administered during the course of a minor illness, the risk of adverse events is not increased, and serum antibody response is not often diminished. On the other hand, if fever or symptoms suggest a moderate or severe illness, it is usually appropriate to withhold vaccination until the patient has recovered. In addition to the potential risks already mentioned, evolving signs and symptoms of the illness can sometimes confound the diagnosis of a vaccine reaction if it develops. In the presence of any infection, the decision to administer or withhold/defer immunization should take into consideration the benefits versus the risks to an individual patient.

Measles virus vaccine has a major potential interaction with Immunodeficiency.

In general, the use of measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine or any single component is contraindicated in patients with primary or acquired immunodeficiency. Since these vaccines contain live attenuated viruses, the absence of immune competence may potentiate the replication of vaccine virus, increase adverse host reactions, and compromise serum antibody response. Likewise, the vaccine should not be administered to anyone with a family history of congenital or hereditary immunodeficiency until the individual's immune status can be assessed and is determined to be adequate. In the case of HIV infection, patients without overt clinical manifestations suggesting severe immunodeficiency should be vaccinated because measles can be particularly severe and potentially fatal in the presence of HIV. However, immunization may be less effective in these patients, and they should be monitored for vaccine-preventable diseases.

The bendamustine in Vivimusta has a major potential interaction with Liver Disease.

Bendamustine injection should be used with caution in patients with hepatic impairment. Bendamustine injection should not be used in patients with moderate (AST or ALT 2.5 to 10 X ULN and total bilirubin 1.5 to 3 X ULN) or severe (total bilirubin greater than 3 X ULN) hepatic impairment.

The bendamustine in Vivimusta has a major potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Bendamustine injection should be used with caution in patients with mild or moderate renal impairment. Bendamustine injection should not be used in patients with CrCL < 40 mL/min.

Measles virus vaccine has a moderate potential interaction with Thrombocytopenia.

Transient thrombocytopenia has been reported within 4 to 6 weeks following vaccination with measles, mumps and rubella vaccine. Caution is advised in children with thrombocytopenia and those patients with history of thrombocytopenia after vaccination. The decision to vaccinate should consider both the potential benefits and risks to the patient.
