DRUG –DRUG INTERACTIONS Dr.Abdul latif Mahesar King Saud University May 2010 1 DRUG – DRUG INTERACTION • When one drug is administered, a response occurs, if a second drug is given and response to other drug is altered , a drug interactions is said to have occurred • This effect may be • Desired or beneficial (efficacy ↑es with out ↑in toxicity) e.g. Multi drug treatment of T.B Amoxicillin + clavulanic acid L-Dopa + Carbidopa Naloxone to treat Morphine overdose 2 • Undesired or harmful (toxicity is ↑ed with ↓in efficacy) • Aspirin and Warfarin • Propranolol + Salbutamol • Paracetamol + Alcohol • Gentamycin + loop diruetics 3 Clinically important drug interactions • • 1. Drugs that have steep dose response curve and small therapeutic index, small change in concentration at site will lead to substantial increase in effect. e.g. Digoxin , Lithium 2. Drugs that are known enzyme inducers/inhibitors 4 3. Drugs that exibit saturable metabolism e.g. Phenytoin , Theophylline 4. Drugs used for prolong period and precise plasma concentration are required e.g. oral contraceptive , antiepileptic drugs , lithium 5. Different drugs used to treat same disease e.g. Theophylline, Salbutamol 6. In patients with impaired kidney and liver functions 7. In elderly who receive several drugs at the same time 5 PHARMACODYNAMIC INTERACTIONS • Both drugs act at same target site exerting synergism or antagonism • Drugs may act at same or different receptors or process. • The effect may be Synergistic or Antagonism 6 SYNERGISTIC PHARMACODYNAMIC DRUG INTERACTIONS DRUG TUBOCURARINE ORAL HYPOGLYCAEMICS DIGITALIS ANTIHYPERTENSIVES INTERACTS WITH AMINOGLYCOSIDES QUINIDINE PROCAINE SALICYLATES PROPRANOLOL PROPRANOLOL GUANETHIDINE VERAPAMIL RESULTS IN DIURETICS ENHANCED HYPOTENSION PROLONGED PARALYSIS EXCESSIVE HYPOGLYCAEMIA BRADYCARDIA DRUG INTERACTIONS MAY BE ANTAGONISTIC PRIMARY DRUG INTERACTS WITH RESULTING IN SALBUTAMOL -PROPRANOLOL ANTIHYPERTENSIVES -NSAIDS ANTIAGONISM OF BRONCHODILATION ANTAGONISM OF HYPOTENSIVE EFFECT (Na+ RETENTION) NO SIGNIFICANT EFFECTS ON Na ANTAGONISM OF ANTIMICROBIAL EFFECTS WARFARIN EFFECT ANTAGONIZED BY INCREASED CLOTTING FACTOR SYNTHESIS ANTAGONISM SULPHONAMIDES - SELECTIVE COX 2 INHIBITORS -L. ANAETHETICS -(PABA) WARFARIN OESTROGENS OPIOIDS NALOXONE PHARMACOKINETIC INTERACTIONS • Drug act remotely from target site to alter plasma concentration e.g. enzyme induction /inhibition interaction may be synergistic or antagonistic. Drug interaction can occur at 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. out side the body At site of absorption During drug distribution During drug metabolism During drug excretion. On receptor or body system. 9 Interaction out side the body • Drugs are added to reservoir or syringes to make drugs soluble they are prepared in salt forms, mixing these drugs may lead to precipitation (incompatibility) • Dilution in reservoir may also lead to loss of stability. • Protamine in zinc insulin may bind with soluble insulin and delay its effects. 10 AT THE SITE OF ABSORPTION • Direct chemical interaction e.g. Antacids + Tetracycline's ,Iron form insoluble complexes ,this can be prevented if drugs are administered at 2hrs apart. • Gut motility: drugs which reduce gastric emptying delay absorption of other drugs e.g anti cholinergics , antidepressants . • 11 PHARMACOKINETIC INTERACITONS AT THE ABSORPTION LEVEL: EXAMPLES: DRUGS A) TETRACYCLINE + A) MECHANISM CHELATION EFFECT MUTUALLY Ca2+, Fe2+, AL3+, Mg2+ REDUCED SALTS ABSORPTION B) ANTICOAGULANTS OR THYROXINE BINDING TO REDUCED OR DIGOXIN RESIN ABSORPTION OR THIAZIDES + CHOLESTYRAMINE • Purgatives reduce time spent in small intestine and reduce absorption. • Alteration in gut flora: antimicrobials potentiates ant coagulants by reducing bacterial synthesis of vit.K • Affect the transport as P-glycoprotein • Other than gut : Local anesthetics (xylocaine) and adrenaline. 13 DURING DISTRIBUTION • Displacement from plasma proteins binding e.g. Sodium valproate displaces Phenytoin Sulphonamides displaces bilirubin ( in neonates) • Displacement from tissue binding sites e.g. Quinidine displaces Digoxin 14 Interaction during metabolism • Enzme induction: • liver micsrosomal enzymes are induced by a wide variety of drugs and these affect the metabolism of other drugs reducing their concentration and hence effect. • e.g oral contraceptive metabolism is enhanced if Phenytoin is co-administered ,leading to unplanned pregnancy • eg loss of anticougulant effect of Warfarin leading to danger of thrombosis if barbiturates are administered. • chronic use of alcohal shows tolerance to general anesthetics. 15 EXAMPLES INCLUDE: PRIMARY DRUG INDUCING DRUG EFFECT OF INTERACTION ORAL BARBITURATES DECREASED ANTICOAGULANTS RIFAMPICIN ANTI-COAGULATION PHENYTOIN DECREASED CHLORPROMAZINE HYPOGLYCAEMIA PHENOBARBITONE FAILURE OF e.g. WARFARIN TOLBUTAMIDE ORAL CONTRACEPTIVES PREDNISONE CONTRCEPTION BARBITURATES DEXAMETHASONE DOXYCYCLINE REDUCED STEROID LEVELS BARBITURATES REDUCED DOXYCYCLINE LEVELS QUINIDINE PHENYTOIN REDUCED BARBITURATES QUINIDINE LEVELS Enzyme inhibition • Certain drugs inhibit the liver microsomal enzymes ,hence increase the activity of drugs which are to be metabolized by these enzymes. • Eg. Cimetidine potenciates the effects of propranolol ,theophylline, warfarin and others 17 INTERACTIONS OF LIVER ENZYME INHIBITORS PRIMARY DRUG INHIBITING DRUG INTERACTION PHENYTOIN ISONIZID PHENYTOIN AZAPROPAZONE INTOXICATION CHLORAMPHENICOL ORAL ALLOPURINOL ANTICOAGULANTS NORTRIPTYLINE e.g. WARFARIN QUINIDINE TOLBUTAMIDE PHENYLBUTAZONE CHLORPROPAMIDE CHLORAMPHENICOL HAEMORRHAGE HYPOGLYCAEMIA DISCOUMAROL 6-MERCAPTOPURINE ALLOPURINOL AZATHIOPRINE ANY DRUG BONE MARROW SUPPRESSION CIMETIDINE RAISED PLASMA KETOCONAZOLE LEVEL OF DRUG FLUOXETINE Enzyme inducers. Phenobarbital • • Rifampin • Grisofulvin • Phenytoin • Ethanol • Carbamazepine 19 Enzyme inhibitors • • • • Phenylbutazone Metronidazole Cimetidine Omperazole 20 DRUG EXCRETION: MAY BE CHANGED BY DRUGS WHICH ALTER URINARY pH ► WEAK ACIDS LIKE (PENICILLINS, PHENOBARB, ACETAZOLAMIDE, NITROFURANTOIN). BEST ELIMINATED IN ALKALINE URINE ► BASES LIKE (CHLOROQUINE, IMIPARMINE, QUININE) OR BEST ELIMENATED IN ACIDIC URINE B) DRUGS MAY COMPETE FOR RENAL TUBULAR SECRETION PRIMARY DRUG COMPETING DRUG EFFECT OF INTERACTION PENICILLIN PROBENECID INCREASED PENCILLIN LEVELS METHOTREXATE LITHIUM SALICYLATES BONE MARROW SULPHONAMIDES DEPRESSION THIAZIDES LITHIUM TOXICITY HYPERNATRAEMIA DIGOXIN SPIRONOLACTONE INCREASED PLASMA DIGOXIN LEVELS SALICYLATES INDOMETHACIN PROBENECID INDOMETHACIN OR SALICYLATES TOXICITY. Haemodynamic flow • variation in heaptic blood flow may influence the rate of inactivation of drugs as in reduced cardiac out put. • Drugs which reduce cardiac out put like Propranolol may reduce the metabolism of other drugs. 23 B- Drug may alter drug distribution: Mechanisms: - Competition for plasma protein binding - Displacement from tissue binding sites - Alterations in local tissue barriers (P-glyco proteins inhibition in BBB). 24 - Displacement from tissue binding sites would tend to transiently increase blood concentration of !displaced drug. This effect is transient because of compensatory increase in drug disposition. • When one displacing drug additionally reduces elimination of the 1st drug , so that free concentration is increased not only acutely but also chronically at new steady state, severe toxicity may occur. 25 Salicylates displace methotrexate from albumin and also reduce its secretion into nephron by competition with anion secretory carrier. Quinidine, verapamil, & amiodarone displace digoxin from tissue binding sites & reduce its renal excretion leading to digoxin toxicity 26 • Drugs metabolism: Drugs can either inhibit/ induce drug-metabolizing enzymes. Enzyme inducers (stimulation of cytochrome P450 in liver): requires some days - Barbiturates - Ethanol - Carbamazepine?? - Phenytoin - Rifampicin?? - Efavirenz?? - They also increase glucuronidation (phase II) metabolism 27 Enzyme inhibitors: (inhibit cytochrome P450); more quickly than enzyme induction - Amiodarone Androgen?? Chloramphenicol Cimetidine; decrease warfarin metabolism Ciprofloxacin, clarithromycin, erythromycin Cyclosporine, ??isoniazide,?? ketoconazole, Delavirdine?? Disulfiram.؟؟ 28
