Concurrent use of colchicine and pravastatin carries a small theoretical risk of myopathy, as both drugs individually can cause muscle toxicity, though the combination is better tolerated than colchicine with …
Rosuvastatin and colchicine share BCRP transporter-mediated elimination; colchicine may weakly increase rosuvastatin exposure, and both carry myotoxic potential that could be additive.
Colchicine may increase bleeding risk when combined with warfarin; isolated case reports suggest possible INR elevation, though the mechanism is not well characterized.
Azithromycin inhibits P-glycoprotein and CYP3A4-mediated metabolism of colchicine, increasing colchicine plasma concentrations and the risk of colchicine toxicity, including neuromuscular and gastrointestinal toxicity.
