Mechanism Example
Pharmacokinetics:
administration/absorption
Drugs that alter
the pH of the stomach can affect absorption of other drugs
Itraconazole requires an acidic
gastric pH to become soluble; absorption may be decreased if a patient is taking a drug that increases gastric pH such as a PPI or H2-blocker.
Induction or
inhibition of CYP enzymes in the GI tract
Grapefruit juice inhibits intestinal
CYP3A4, potentially increasing the bioavailability of CYP3A4 substrates such as nifedipine and verapamil.
Induction or
inhibition of P-gp (an efflux pump that expels drugs) in GI tract
Dabigatran, a substrate for P-
gp, peak concentrations may be increased by P-gp inhibitors (eg, ketoconazole, clarithromycin, amiodarone), leading to a significantly increased risk of bleeding.
Increase or delay
gastric emptying/motility
Erythromycin, a potent
prokinetic agent, is a motilin receptor agonist that increases gastric motility; absorption of coadministered drugs may be affected.
Killing enteric
bacteria
Antibiotics can kill bacteria that
produce deconjugating enzymes; drugs that undergo enterohepatic circulation such as birth control pills may have decreased blood concentrations and half-life because of increased excretion in the feces.
Chelation Cations such as aluminum or
magnesium antacids decrease the GI absorption of tetracycline antibiotics by forming drug–metal complexes.

Mechanism Example
Physiochemical
inactivation
Mixing a furosemide solution
with an acidic solution (ie, with midazolam) decreases the pH sufficiently to cause furosemide precipitation and reduced availability when administered intravenously.
Pharmacokinetics:
distribution
Interaction
between two highly protein­bound drugs (eg, a precipitant drug has stronger affinity for the same protein-binding site)
Sulfamethoxazole displaces
warfarin from protein-binding sites, increasing the free fraction. Sulfamethoxazole also inhibits the metabolism of warfarin. As a result, the body cannot compensate to increase the elimination of the high free (active) fraction of warfarin. The end result is likely an increase in the INR and potential risk for bleeding. See Chapter 11 for detailed warfarin–sulfamethoxazole drug interaction.
Inhibition of carrier
proteins such as P-gp located in blood–brain barrier and OATPs located in the liver
Cyclosporine may inhibit the
transporter OATP1B1, decreasing the hepatic uptake of most statins; efficacy of the statin may be lost because the site of action is located in the liver.
Pharmacokinetics:
metabolism
Induction or
inhibition of CYP enzymes in the liver
Example 1: Fluoroquinolones
inhibit metabolism of theophylline via CYP1A2 enzyme; the extent of the interaction varies between the different fluoroquinolones.
Example 2: Rifampin has a half-
life of 4 hours; however, time to steady-state induction with propranolol does not occur until 10–14 days.
https://t.me/medicina_free
Mechanism Example
Pharmacokinetics:
excretion/elimination
Administration of
two drugs that use the same transport system and undergo active tubular secretion by the kidneys
Methotrexate clearance may be
reduced in the presence of salicylates. Salicylates decrease renal perfusion via PGE2, having the potential to
cause renal impairment and competitively inhibit the tubular secretion of methotrexate.
Increased or
decreased renal tubular absorption
Example 1: Alkalization of the
urine with sodium bicarbonate will decrease the reabsorption of acidic compounds such as salicylates, a treatment in overdose.
Example 2: Thiazide diuretics
initially cause sodium excretion, followed by compensatory sodium reabsorption. Administered with lithium, a cation can cause increased lithium reabsorption and possible toxic concentrations.

Common Mechanisms of Pharmacodynamic Drug Interactions
66
Mechanism Example
Pharmacodynamics Additive—two or more
medications with comparable pharmacodynamic effects result in an exaggerated and/or toxic response
An adverse effect of each of the
drugs, clarithromycin and saquinavir, is QTc prolongation. Administration of them together increases the risk for QTc prolongation and an increase in plasma concentrations.
https://t.me/medicina_free
Mechanism Example
Antagonistic—the
effects of one drug oppose the actions of another drug
Example 1: Antagonism at the same
receptor site: reversal of benzodiazepines with flumazenil
Example 2: Opposing
pharmacodynamics actions: glucocorticoids cause hyperglycemia opposing the effects of hypoglycemic medications.

MANAGEMENT OF DRUG INTERACTIONS
CASE 3-1, QUESTION 5: The medical intern on the team also plans to prescribe
a combination analgesic (oxycodone/acetaminophen) in place of intravenous (IV) morphine for the pain management.
In addition, F.D. remembers St. John’s wort is the name of the OTC product
that she takes. She said it helps with her seasonal depression.
As the pharmacist on the multidisciplinary team, your role is to assess therapy and make recommendations as needed. What recommendations regarding F.D.’s therapy do you make, including the use of St. John’s wort?
Although acetaminophen is a commonly used nonprescription analgesic and antipyretic medication for mild-to-moderate pain and fever, its presence is often unrecognized in combination products containing opioids prescribed for moderate-to-severe pain. Several studies have identified acetaminophen as a culprit drug in potentiating the effects of warfarin.
67,68
Patients who take four 325­mg acetaminophen tablets per day for longer than a week were more likely to have an INR >6.0 than those who did not take acetaminophen.
There is no evidence for a pharmacokinetic interaction between
acetaminophen and warfarin.69 However, acetaminophen is
https://t.me/medicina_free
metabolized by CYP2E1, producing the metabolite N-acetyl-p­benzoquinone-imine (NAPQ1). NAPQ1 oxidizes vitamin K­hydroquinone (KH2), the “active” form of vitamin K, and directly inhibits vitamin K–dependent carboxylation.70 There may be other oxidative changes, producing enzymatic disruption, that impact vitamin K synthesis and activity. The end result is an exaggerated response to warfarin and an increased INR.
Therefore, if F.D. is to be placed on oxycodone/acetaminophen therapy, her INR should be monitored more frequently and her dose adjusted accordingly. This is important particularly if she requires higher sustained doses of warfarin.
Dietary supplements, including herbal medicinals, amino acids, and other nonprescription products, are not tested before marketing for interactions with other medications, including warfarin. Little is known about their interactive properties, other than published case reports of varying quality. In addition, dietary supplements are not required to meet U.S. Pharmacopeia standards for tablet content uniformity.
St. John’s wort, an herb whose yellow flowers and leaves are used to make herbal supplements, has been used for the treatment of depression. It has also been shown to lower patient INR values and potentially decrease warfarin’s effectiveness.
71,72
Although this interaction is probably because of the induction of CYP2C9, the degree of induction is unpredictable owing to variable quality and quantity of the herbal constituent in the preparations. Similarly, St. John’s wort has been suspected of reducing phenytoin plasma concentrations through induction of CYP3A4.
The addition of St. John’s wort to F.D.’s current drug regimen would not be advisable because it would increase her risk for drug interactions. The implications for initiating St. John’s wort in F.D. would require measurement of phenytoin and more frequent INR testing to ensure a new steady state for each agent has been reached. At this point, it is important to assess F.D.’s depression and to evaluate therapeutic options that would provide the least risk of drug interactions, as well as psychosocial treatment.

CASE 3-1, QUESTION 6: The medical team would like to resume F.D.’s
medications that she was taking before admission. However, when the medical resident enters the order into the computer, they receive an electronic health record drug interaction alert regarding the statin and warfarin. How should this be managed?
Fluvastatin is metabolized extensively by the CYP system, primarily by CYP2C9 and to a lesser extent by CYP3A4 and CYP2C8. Fluvastatin is also a substrate for the transport protein OATP1B3. OATP transports statins from the blood to the liver for metabolism or excretion into the bile and feces. The combination of fluvastatin and warfarin has resulted in an increase in the INR, hence increasing the risk of bleeding.
3,35,36
In addition to this, fluvastatin when coadministered with phenytoin has been reported to increase phenytoin serum concentrations.73 Each of the statin agents is metabolized by different CYP isoenzymes and to different degrees (Table 3-5). The goal of lipid management is to prescribe an agent with the least side effects and at the lowest effective dose. If a patient, such as F.D., requires a drug that interacts with statin metabolism (CYP), switching to a statin that has a more favorable elimination profile may be the best option. For example, pravastatin is a good alternative because its elimination is not dependent on CYP metabolism and is eliminated 20% by the renal route.74 F.D. has minor renal dysfunction with a creatinine clearance of 70 mL/minute; pravastatin would not require dose adjustment unless F.D.’s glomerular filtration rate (GFR) drops <30 mL/minute.75 However, if fluvastatin is continued with warfarin therapy more frequent, monitoring of the INR is recommended until a stable INR has been reached. It is vital to monitor the patient’s INR during initiation and discontinuance of fluvastatin therapy.73 Table 3-5 provides a summary of the metabolism of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors.

CASE 3-2
QUESTION 1: J.A. is a 69-year-old previously healthy male admitted to the
medical intensive care unit (ICU) with lower left lobe pneumonia, and he has developed septic shock. His hospital course for the first 18 days of admission consisted of a worsening bilateral pneumonia characterized by profound hypoxia and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). J.A. is currently deeply sedated and receiving neuromuscular blockade to manage his ARDS, high peak inspiratory pressures (PIPs), and low oxygen saturation (Sao2).
Medications:
Propofol IV infusion and fentanyl IV infusion for sedation and analgesia Cisatracurium IV infusion for neuromuscular blockade—goal is to improve
oxygenation (Pao2/FIO2 ratio) Pantoprazole IV for stress ulcer prophylaxis

J.A.’s train-of-four (TOF) is 0/4. A peripheral nerve stimulator, the TOF, is a clinical tool used to monitor neuromuscular blockade. The TOF Scale includes the following: 0/4 indicates that no twitch elicited, neuromuscular blocker agent occupies 100% of postsynaptic nicotinic receptors, and a 100% blockade, whereas 4/4 indicates that <75% of the postsynaptic nicotinic receptors are blocked. The goal of neuromuscular therapy is to achieve an adequate neuromuscular blockade, a TOF of 1/4 or 2/4 (80%–90% of receptors blocked) or the desired clinical effect (eg, accepting ventilation and not over breathing the
ventilator), with the lowest dose of neuromuscular agent necessary.
78,79
https://t.me/medicina_free
What are J.A.’s risk factors for drug interactions?
There are several risk factors for drug interactions in critically ill patients. Critically ill patients are susceptible to drug interactions as a result of a debilitated condition and/or disease state (eg, changes in physiologic pH and body temperature, electrolyte imbalances, organ failure), as well as the multitude of medications prescribed as treatment. Patients in ICU also have altered pharmacokinetics, placing them at an increased risk for an interaction. These changes include the following:
Decreased GI absorption of enterally administered medications owing to the following: hypoperfusion from shock, increased stomach pH from PPI and histamine blocker therapy, decreased GI motility, or drug effect on carrier proteins, for example, P-gp
Decreased SC absorption owing to the following: edema, vasopressor therapy, or disease-induced peripheral vasoconstriction
Increased volume of distribution (Vd) for hydrophilic medications owing to increased total body water from fluid resuscitation and
third spacing Altered free drug fraction owing to increased α-acid glycoprotein
from systemic inflammation and decreased albumin plasma concentrations
Half-life (t½) and clearance (CL) may be affected from decreased hepatic blood flow, renal or hepatic insufficiency, and induction or
inhibition of hepatic enzymes by drugs. Patients without renal insufficiency may exhibit augmented clearance.
80,81
The mode of mechanical ventilation that is used most commonly today is positive pressure ventilation, whereby air is forced into the lungs to improve gas exchange. The use of mechanical ventilation may also affect drug pharmacokinetics by decreasing cardiac output secondary to reduced preload, which, in turn, may compromise perfusion to the liver and kidneys as well as GFR and urine output.
82
This effect is most pronounced in patients who are hypovolemic.
https://t.me/medicina_free
These hemodynamic changes can result in a decrease of the clearance of several drugs.
J.A. has several risk factors for drug interactions. Many of his risk factors are patient specific, including J.A.’s age, organ dysfunction, and acute medical conditions. Additional risk factors are the extended hospital stay in the ICU and multiple medications. J.A.’s specific risk factors are outlined as follows.
Patient Risk Factors
Age: 69 years old—altered pharmacokinetics and pharmaco­dynamics
Renal dysfunction: baseline SCr 1.0 mg/dL and current SCr 1.8 mg/dL—decreased renal clearance
Mild hepatic dysfunction: AST 105 U/mL and ALT 85 U/mL— decreased metabolism
Pneumonia: T 101 °F (38.33 °C), WBC 14.6 × 103 μL, poly 80%, bands 12%—increased catabolism
Hypotension (result of shock): BP 95/60 on norepinephrine, vasopressin, and lactated Ringer solution—decreased clearance
Hyperthermia: T 101 °F (38.33 °C)—increased clearance Hypophosphatemia: phosphate 0.9 mg/dL—increased
neuromuscular blockade (see discussion Case 3-2, Question 2) Norepinephrine and vasopressin infusions: potential for decreased
blood delivery to the liver and kidneys Mechanical ventilation: decreased cardiac output
Other Risk Factors
Polypharmacy: risk of adverse drug interaction increases with multiple medications
Duration of hospital stay: 18 days—susceptible to hospital-acquired conditions and subsequent drug therapy
