INTERACTIONS

Interactions Pevaryl 1 % 30 g cream - Which medicines or foods can modify the effect of Pevaryl 1 % 30 g cream?

Econazole is a known inhibitor of cytochromes CYP3A4 and CYP2C9. Despite limited systemic availability after cutaneous application, clinically relevant interactions with other medicinal products may occur and some have been reported in patients receiving oral anticoagulants, such as warfarin and acenocoumarol. In patients receiving oral anticoagulants, caution should be exercised and the INR should be monitored more frequently. Dosage adjustment of the oral anticoagulant may be necessary during treatment with econazole and after its discontinuation.

In the table below, where the adverse reactions of the dermatological formulations of Pevaryl are reported, all ADRs with a known incidence (common or uncommon) come from clinical study data and all adverse reactions with an unknown incidence come from post-marketing data. The frequencies are reported according to the following convention: Very common ( ≥ 1/10); Common ( ≥ 1/100, <1/10); Uncommon ( ≥ 1/1,000, <1/100); Rare ( ≥ 1/10,000, <1/1,000); Very rare (<1/10,000), Not known (cannot be estimated from the available data). Table 1: Adverse Drug Reactions

Classification by systems and organs	Adverse drug reactions
	Frequency
	Common (≥ 1/100, < 1/10)	Uncommon (≥ 1/1,000, < 1/100)	Not Known
Immune system disorders			Hypersensitivity
Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders	Itching, burning sensation of the skin	Erythema	Angioedema, contact dermatitis, rash, urticaria, vesiculation, skin exfoliation
Systemic disorders and conditions related to the administration site	Pain	Discomfort Swelling

The use of topical products, especially if prolonged, may give rise to sensitization phenomena. In case of hypersensitivity reactions, it is necessary to interrupt the treatment and institute appropriate therapy. Reporting of suspected adverse reactions Reporting suspected adverse reactions that occur after authorization of the medicinal product is important, as it allows continuous monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Healthcare professionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reactions via the national reporting system at https://www.aifa.gov.it/content/segnalazioni-reazioni-avverse.

OVERDOSE

Overdose Pevaryl 1% 30g cream - What are the risks of Pevaryl 1% 30g cream in case of overdose?

The available pharmaceutical forms are intended for topical application only. In case of accidental ingestion, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea may occur and should be treated with symptomatic therapy. If the product accidentally comes into contact with the eyes, wash with clean water or saline and seek medical advice if symptoms persist. Pevaryl 1% cutaneous powder The powder formulation contains talc: massive accidental aspiration of the powder may cause airway blockage, particularly in infants and children. Respiratory arrest should be treated with supportive therapy and oxygen.

PREGNANCY AND BREASTFEEDING

If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor for advice before taking Pevaryl 1% 30 g cream.

Pregnancy Studies in animals have shown reproductive toxicity. The risk in humans is unknown. (see section 5.3). In humans, after topical application to intact skin, systemic absorption of econazole is low (< 10%). There are no adequate and controlled studies, nor epidemiological data, on the adverse effects resulting from the use of PEVARYL during pregnancy. Due to systemic absorption, PEVARYL should not be used during the first trimester of pregnancy unless the doctor considers it necessary for the health of the patient. PEVARYL can be used during the second and third trimester of pregnancy if the potential benefit for the mother outweighs the possible risks for the fetus. Breastfeeding After oral administration of econazole nitrate in rats during lactation, econazole and/or its metabolites were excreted in breast milk and detected in pups. It is not known whether dermal administration of PEVARYL can result in sufficient systemic absorption of econazole to produce detectable concentrations of econazole in human breast milk. Caution should be exercised when PEVARYL is administered to women who are breastfeeding. Fertility Results from reproduction studies in animals have shown no effects on fertility (see section 5.3).
