Troleandomycin + Quinine Sulfate Interaction

Unknowninteraction on record

Description

Macrolide Antibiotics (Erythromycin, Troleandomycin) (CYP3A4 Inhibitors) In a crossover study (N=10), healthy subjects who received a single oral 600 mg dose of quinine sulfate with the macrolide antibiotic, troleandomycin (500 mg every 8 hours) exhibited a 87% higher mean quinine AUC, a 45% lower mean oral clearance of quinine, and a 81% lower formation clearance of the main metabolite, 3-hydroxyquinine, than when quinine was given alone. Therefore, concomitant administration of macrolide antibiotics such as erythromycin or troleandomycin with quinine sulfate should be avoided [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS ( 5.3 )] .
