COLCHICINE AND FIBRATES

Medical Diagnosis and Drugs, Medications
Case reports suggest that the current use of fibrates and colchicine can result in rhabdomyolysis or neuromyopathy.
Information is limited, although rhabdomyolysis is associated with both colchicine and the fibrates. Suspect this interaction in any patient presenting with muscle pain or a raised creatinine kinase level taking these drugs.
