CICLOSPORIN (CYCLOSPORINE) AND EZETIMIBE
Ciclosporin may elevate ezetimibe levels by as much as 3.4-fold.
The manufacturers advise that ciclosporin levels and ezetimibe adverse effects should be closely monitored. Be aware of the risks of increased ezetimibe toxicity (abdominal pain, headache, nausea and rarely myopathy). Patients should be advised to report any muscle pain, tenderness or weakness.
