Abstract
The influence of treatment with ponsinomycin, a new macrolide antibiotic, on the pharmacokinetics of cyclosporin A has been studied in 10 renal transplant patients. The pharmacokinetics of cyclosporin A was investigated at steady state, before and during treatment with ponsinomycin. On average, the blood levels of cyclosporin A were doubled by the macrolide, possibly due to a decrease in elimination or/and to an increase in absorption. Ponsinomycin should be use very carefully in patients treated with cyclosporin A.Entities:
