Changes in Pharmacodynamic Parameters during Co-administration of 5-FU with Warfarin: A Retrospective Case Series

Abstract: Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) between warfarin (WF) and fluoropyrimidines are well known. Coadministration of WF and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) leads to elevations in prothrombin time international normalised ratio (PT-INR). The inhibition of drug metabolism through suppression of CYP activity is a possible cause of prolonged PT-INR elevations. 5-FU and its metabolites are suspected to inhibit CYPs, but the precise mechanisms of action remain unknown. This study aimed to investigate the possible DDI effects of the … Show more

“…As a newly approved anti-tumor adjuvant drug, it is inevitable that ICT will be combined with other drugs in clinical application. For example, anticoagulation therapy is common among cancer patients due to the high risk of cancer-associated thromboembolic events (Tayag et al, 2022). Therefore, warfarin, as one of the most clinically used anticoagulants, is likely to be prescribed along with ICT.…”
