Interactions between your drugs
doxepin topical mibefradil
Applies to: doxepin topical, Posicor (mibefradil)
MONITOR: Based on in vitro inhibition data, coadministration with mibefradil may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of CYP450 2D6 and/or 3A4. The mechanism is decreased clearance due to inhibition of these isoenzymes by mibefradil.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when mibefradil is used concomitantly with drugs that undergo metabolism by CYP450 2D6 and/or 3A4, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever mibefradil is added to or withdrawn from therapy.
