ABSTRACT Objective:To evaluate the interaction of levothyroxine sodium (L T4) by drug drug interactions (DDIs) software (Lexi InteractionTM) and analyze clinical data to provide reference for clinical rational drug use. Methods:Lexi InteractionTM software was used to evaluate the DDIs of levothyroxine sodium from a theoretical perspective. Clinical interaction data were combined to analyze the current clinical interactions, impacts, and measures to be taken. Results:A total of 36 DDIs related to levothyroxine sodium were screened out by software. Among them, four were in group B, 16 in group C, 14 in group D, and 2 in group X. Among them, the efficacy of L T4 was mainly reduced (30, 83.3%). It also included an increase in L T4 efficacy (2, 5.6%) and changes in the efficacy and adverse reactions of other drugs (4, 11.1%). A total of 98 patients were analyzed, of which DDIs accounted for 69.4% (68/98) and 2 or more patients accounted for 48.0% (47/98). The combination of calcium and iron salt were the main manifestation. It takes accounting for 21.4% (21/98) of the 2 or less, with calcium salt as the main performance. Most of the patients who used L T4 were hypothyroidism patients and had multiple diseases at the same time. Conclusion:The drug interactions of L T4 were dominated by D and C grades. Most of them had the effect of lowering L T4. Clinically, DDIs were mainly expressed as calcium salt and iron salt. Therefore, there were many clinically combined diseases and more drugs were used together. In patients, the use of L T4 and other drugs should take in different times thus may reduce its effects. |
