Adding valproic acid to ziprasidone.
- Ziprasidone is metabolized by CYP1A2 (minor) and CYP3A4.
- Valproic acid is principally metabolized by CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2A6 and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases. Valproic acid is an inhibitor of the enzymes CYP2C9, epoxide-hydroxylase and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases.
- Start valproic acid according to the general dosing advice.
- Central nervous system- and/or respiratory-depressant effects may be additively or synergistically increased in patients taking multiple drugs that cause these effects, especially in elderly or debilitated patients.[4]
- Antipsychotics lower the seizure threshold and may antagonise the anticonvulsant effect of valproate. [5]
