Interacting Drugs |
Lovastatin vs Antifungal Agents (Azole Derivatives, Systemic) |
Security Level |
|
Mechanism |
Antifungal Agents (Azole Derivatives, Systemic): May decrease the metabolism of HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitors. |
Management |
Consider use of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors posing the least rhabdomyolysis risk (e.g. fluva- or pravastatin), and monitor for signs/symptoms of rhabdomyolysis. Do not use keto- or itraconazole with lova- or simvastatin, or posaconazole with simvastatin. |
