Minor Suspected

Mô tả

Rosuvastatin and colchicine share BCRP transporter-mediated elimination; colchicine may weakly increase rosuvastatin exposure, and both carry myotoxic potential that could be additive.

Cơ chế

Rosuvastatin is a substrate of BCRP (ABCG2) and OATP1B1/1B3; colchicine inhibits BCRP to a minor degree, potentially raising rosuvastatin AUC slightly; additive myopathy risk from two agents with muscle toxicity profiles.

Ý nghĩa lâm sàng

The OATP/BCRP interaction is modest with colchicine; muscle toxicity cases have been reported for colchicine-statin combinations, although predominantly with CYP3A4-metabolised statins.

Xử trí

No routine dose adjustment is required; counsel patients to report muscle symptoms; measure CK if myopathy is suspected.
