Tương tác
May cause significant decrease in the plasma concentration and loss of therapeutic effect of protease inhibitors or reverse transcriptase inhibitors. May reduce the activity of CYP3A4 substrates (e.g. verapamil, fluconazole, methadone, quinidine, corticosteroids, flouroquinolones, warfarin, tacrolimus). May diminish therapeutic effects of barbiturates, anticonvulsants, benzodiazepines, clofibrate, oral contraceptives.

Description: Rifapentine is a long-acting semisynthetic rifamycin derivative. It inhibits DNA-dependent RNA polymerase in susceptible strains of intracellular and extracellular Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) organisms. Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Increased absorption with food (particularly high-fat meals). Bioavailability: 70%. Time to peak serum concentration: 3-10 hours. Distribution: Volume of distribution: Approx 70 L. Plasma protein binding: Approx 98% primarily to albumin (rifapentine); approx 93% (25-desacetyl rifapentine). Metabolism: Metabolised in the liver by esterase enzyme to form the active metabolite 25-desacetyl rifapentine. Excretion: Mainly via faeces (70% as unchanged drug and metabolites); urine (17%, as metabolites). Elimination half-life: Approx 17 hours (rifapentine); approx 24 hours (25-desacetyl rifapentine).
