discolors body fluids, (orange red), hepatotoxicity, Nervous complaints,

37
Q

Drug interactions with rifampin

A

induces CYP’s–> reduces half life of pred, ketocon, NNRTI’s etc.
oral contraceptives less effective and anticoags less effective

38
Q

which drug icreases serum concentration of rifampin

A

probenacid

39
Q

rifampin can cuase death from

only cyp not induced by Rifampin

A

2d6
