Các sản phẩm có chứa hoạt chất Voriconazole tại Việt Nam?
Voriconazole is mainly metabolised by CYP2C19 enzyme. CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms are associated with wide interpatient variability in serum concentrations, decreased clinical response and increased risk of adverse effects. Available data show that approx 15-20% of Asians, 3-5% Caucasians and Black are poor metabolisers. Genetic testing may be beneficial to avoid toxicity and to assess drug effectiveness.
Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) Guideline as of December 2016:
Higher dose-adjusted trough concentrations and increased risk of adverse events.
Consider using an alternative agent that is not primarily metabolised by CYP2C19 (e.g. isavuconazole, liposomal amphotericin B, and posaconazole). In cases where voriconazole is the most appropriate treatment, use at a lower dose with careful therapeutic drug monitoring.
Royal Dutch Pharmacists Association - Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) Guideline as of November 2018:
Phenotype
Implications
Recommendations
CYP2C19 ultrarapid metaboliser
Reduced therapeutic effect.
Use 1.5x higher initial dose and monitor plasma concentration.
CYP2C19 intermediate metaboliser
Increased plasma concentration that may result in improved therapeutic effect or increased risk of side effects.
Monitoring of plasma levels.
CYP2C19 poor metaboliser
Increased plasma concentration that may result in improved therapeutic effect or increased risk of side effects.
Use 50% of standard dose and monitoring of plasma levels.
Dosage or treatment recommendations may vary among countries. Refer to specific country guidelines for the appropriate clinical recommendations.

Hướng dẫn pha thuốc
Oral susp: Reconstitute with 46 mL of water to provide a suspension containing 40 mg/mL. Shake vigorously for about 1 minute. IV infusion: Reconstitute a vial labelled as containing 200 mg with 19 mL sterile water for inj to provide a concentration of 10 mg/mL and an extractable volume of 20 mL. Further dilute the required volume to a compatible IV infusion solution to a final concentration of 0.5-5 mg/mL.
Tương kỵ
IV: Incompatible with 4.2% Na bicarbonate infusion. Do not infuse concomitantly with any blood products or short-term concentrated electrolytes even in separate IV line or cannula.
Chống chỉ định
Hypersensitivity. Concomitant use with CYP3A4 substrates (e.g. terfenadine, astemizole, cisapride, pimozide, quinidine, ivabradine, naloxegol, ergot alkaloids such as ergotamine, dihydroergotamine); long-acting barbiturates (e.g. phenobarbital, mephobarbital), carbamazepine, efavirenz (≥400 mg/day), lurasidone, rifampicin, rifabutin, high-dose ritonavir (≥800 mg/day), sirolimus, tolvaptan, venetoclax (particularly during initiation and dose titration phase), St. John's wort.
Thận trọng
Patient with proarrhythmic condition (e.g. congenital long QT syndrome, sinus bradycardia, existing symptomatic arrhythmias, cardiomyopathy [particularly in the presence of heart failure], structural heart disease, electrolyte disturbances [e.g. hypocalcaemia, hypokalaemia, hypomagnesaemia]); porphyria; risk factors for acute pancreatitis (e.g. recent chemotherapy, haematopoietic stem cell transplantation). Concomitant use of low-dose ritonavir (200 mg/day). Renal and hepatic impairment. Children and elderly. Pregnancy and lactation.
IV/Parenteral/PO: Z (Generally not recommended during pregnancy unless the benefits outweigh the potential risks.)
Thông tin tư vấn bệnh nhân
Women of childbearing potential must use effective contraception during treatment. This drug may cause blurred vision or other visual disturbances, if affected, do not drive or operate machinery. Avoid exposure to sunlight; wear protective clothing and use sunscreen.
Chỉ số theo dõi
Perform culture and susceptibility tests prior to treatment initiation. Consult local recommendations before treatment due to antimicrobial resistance risks. Monitor serum electrolytes (e.g. Ca, Mg, K) prior to and during therapy; LFTs (e.g. AST, ALT, bilirubin) at initiation, weekly during the 1st month and then monthly during treatment if no abnormalities noted; serum creatinine (particularly with IV therapy in individuals with CrCl <50 mL/min) at baseline and periodically thereafter; visual function (e.g. visual acuity, visual field, colour perception) if treatment course is >28 days; pancreatic function (particularly in patients at risk for acute pancreatitis); total body skin examination (yearly or more frequently if lesions are noted). Observe for phototoxic reactions (particularly in children). Assess for signs and symptoms of fluorosis or periostitis (e.g. skeletal pain, radiologic findings).
Quá liều
Symptoms: Photophobia. Management: Symptomatic and supportive treatment. Haemodialysis may assist in removing the drug from the body.
Tương tác
Potentially Fatal: May increase the plasma levels of terfenadine, astemizole, cisapride, pimozide, quinidine, and ivabradine, thus increasing the risk of cardiac effects (e.g. QT interval prolongation, torsades de pointes). Significantly decreased plasma concentration with carbamazepine, long-acting barbiturates (e.g. phenobarbital), rifampicin, high-dose ritonavir (≥800 mg/day). May increase the plasma levels of ergot alkaloids (e.g. ergotamine, dihydroergotamine) resulting in ergotism; venetoclax (particularly during initiation and dose titration phase) which may increase risk of tumour lysis syndrome; efavirenz (≥400 mg/day); rifabutin, naloxegol, lurasidone, sirolimus, tolvaptan.

Decreased serum concentration with St. John's wort.
Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Voriconazole, a synthetic fluconazole derivate, is a triazole antifungal agent. It inhibits fungal CYP450-mediated activity, 14α-lanosterol demethylation, thereby decreasing ergosterol synthesis and inhibiting fungal cell membrane formation. Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Rapidly and almost completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Food may decrease absorption. Bioavailability: 96% (oral). Time to peak plasma concentration: Approx 1-2 hours (oral). Distribution: Extensively distributed into tissues. Diffuses into the CSF. Plasma protein binding: Approx 58%. Metabolism: Metabolised in the liver by CYP2C19 into N-oxide (major metabolite, with minimal antifungal effect), and also by CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 isoenzymes. Excretion: Via urine (<2%, as unchanged drug).
