Sumatrolide Solution Tablets, 125 mg, dispersible tablets, 6 pcs.
Antacids
do not affect the bioavailability of azithromycin, but reduce the maximum concentration of azithromycin by 30%, so azithromycin should be taken 1 hour before or 2 hours after taking antacids.
Cetirizine:
simultaneous use of azithromycin with cetirizine (20 mg) for 5 days in healthy volunteers did not lead to pharmacokinetic interaction and a significant change in the QT interval.
Didanosine:
simultaneous use of azithromycin (1200 mg/day) and didanosine (400 mg/day) in 6 HIV-infected patients did not reveal changes in the pharmacokinetic parameters of didanosine compared to the placebo group.
Digoxin:
simultaneous use of macrolide antibacterial drugs, including azithromycin, with
P-glycoprotein substrates
, such as digoxin, leads to an increase in the concentration of P-glycoprotein substrate in the blood plasma. Thus, with the simultaneous use of digoxin and azithromycin, it is necessary to take into account the possibility of increasing the concentration of digoxin in the blood plasma.
Zidovudine:
simultaneous use of azithromycin (single dose of 1000 mg and multiple doses of 1200 mg or 600 mg) has a minor effect on the pharmacokinetics, including renal excretion, of zidovudine or its glucuronide metabolite. However, the concentration of the active metabolite, phosphorylated zidovudine, in peripheral blood mononuclear cells increases. The clinical significance of this fact is unclear.
Azithromycin interacts weakly with isoenzymes of the cytochrome P450 system. Azithromycin has not been shown to participate in pharmacokinetic interactions similar to erythromycin and other macrolides. Azithromycin is not an inhibitor or inducer of cytochrome P450 isoenzymes.
Ergot alkaloids:
Given the theoretical possibility of developing ergotism, the simultaneous use of azithromycin with ergot alkaloid derivatives (ergotamine, dihydroergotamine) is not recommended.
Pharmacokinetic studies were conducted on the simultaneous use of azithromycin and drugs whose metabolism occurs with the participation of isoenzymes of the cytochrome P450 system.
Atorvastatin:
Concomitant use of atorvastatin (10 mg daily) and azithromycin (500 mg daily) did not cause changes in plasma concentrations of atorvastatin (based on an HMC-CoA reductase inhibition assay). However, cases of rhabdomyolysis have been reported in patients receiving concomitant azithromycin and statins.
Carbamazepine:
Pharmacokinetic studies involving healthy volunteers did not reveal a significant effect on the concentration of carbamazepine and its active metabolite in the blood plasma when used simultaneously with azithromycin.
Cimetidine:
In pharmacokinetic studies of the effect of a single dose of cimetidine on the pharmacokinetics of azithromycin, no changes in the pharmacokinetics of azithromycin were detected, provided that cimetidine was used 2 hours before azithromycin.
Indirect anticoagulants (coumarin derivatives):
In pharmacokinetic studies, azithromycin did not affect the anticoagulant effect of warfarin in a single dose of 15 mg taken by healthy volunteers. Potentiation of the anticoagulant effect has been reported after simultaneous use of azithromycin and indirect anticoagulants (coumarin derivatives). Although a causal relationship has not been established, careful monitoring of prothrombin time in patients is recommended when azithromycin and indirect anticoagulants (coumarin derivatives) are used simultaneously.
Cyclosporine:
in pharmacokinetic studies involving healthy volunteers who took azithromycin (500 mg/day once) orally for 3 days, and then cyclosporine (10 mg/kg/day once), a significant increase in the maximum plasma concentration and area under the curve was detected “concentration-time” of cyclosporine. Caution is advised when using these drugs together. If simultaneous use of these drugs is necessary, it is necessary to monitor the concentration of cyclosporine in the blood plasma and adjust the dose accordingly.
Efavirenz:
simultaneous use of azithromycin (600 mg/day once) and efavirenz (400 mg/day) daily for 7 days did not cause any clinically significant pharmacokinetic interaction.
Fluconazole:
simultaneous use of azithromycin (1200 mg once) did not change the pharmacokinetics of fluconazole (800 mg once). The total exposure and half-life did not change with simultaneous use of fluconazole, however, a decrease in the maximum concentration of azithromycin by 18% was noted, which had no clinical significance.
Indinavir:
simultaneous use of azithromycin (1200 mg once) did not cause a statistically significant effect on the pharmacokinetics of indinavir (800 mg three times a day for 5 days).
Methylprednisolone:
azithromycin does not have a significant effect on the pharmacokinetics of methylprednisolone.
Nelfinavir:
simultaneous use of azithromycin (1200 mg) and nelfinavir (750 mg three times a day) causes an increase in the equilibrium concentrations of azithromycin in the blood plasma. No clinically significant side effects were observed and no dose adjustment of azithromycin was required when used concomitantly with nelfinavir.
Rifabutin:
simultaneous use of azithromycin and rifabutin does not affect the concentration of each drug in the blood plasma. Neutropenia has sometimes been observed with simultaneous use of azithromycin and rifabutin. Although neutropenia has been associated with the use of rifabutin, a causal relationship between the use of the combination of azithromycin and rifabutin and neutropenia has not been established.
Sildenafil:
When used in healthy volunteers, there was no evidence of the effect of azithromycin (500 mg/day daily for 3 days) on the maximum plasma concentration and the area under the concentration-time curve of sildenafil and its main metabolite.
Terfenadine:
In pharmacokinetic studies, there was no evidence of interaction between azithromycin and terfenadine. Isolated cases have been reported in which the possibility of such an interaction could not be completely excluded, but no concrete evidence was identified that such an interaction occurred. The simultaneous use of terfenadine and macrolide antibiotics has been found to cause arrhythmia and prolongation of the QT interval.
Theophylline:
no interaction was detected between azithromycin and theophylline.
Triazolam/midazolam:
There were no significant changes in pharmacokinetic parameters with simultaneous use of azithromycin with triazolam or midazolam in therapeutic doses.
Trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole:
Concomitant use of trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole with azithromycin did not show a significant effect on the maximum concentration, total exposure or renal excretion of trimethoprim or sulfamethoxazole. Azithromycin plasma concentrations were consistent with those found in other studies.
