Hi guys,

Does anyone know of, or have experience of drug interactions which involve
Ciclosporin and Ezetimibe.

I currently have a relative who seems to be having a reaction to something.

He spikes a temperature and develops redness and inflammation,
predominantely in his legs, but this can spread to other areas.

He also has developed extreme photosensitivity, and intermittent nausea.

He has a past medical history of Cardiac transplant (1986)

Left Hip replacement (2003)

Basal Cell Carcinoma (1996)

He also has altered liver and kidney function due to prolonged use of
Ciclosporin (for this reason Statins are inappropriate.)

He also suffers from oedema in his ankles.

He currently is prescribed

1. Frumil (25mg mane)

2. Ciclosporin (175mg BD)

3. Asprin (75mg mane)

4. Ranidine (150mg mane)

5. Ezetimibe (10mg OD (Lunchtime))

6. Minocin (100mg mane)

7. Allopurinal (200mg OD (Lunchtime))

8. Colchicine 500mcg PRN

9. Laculose 5ml BD

Has anyone any experience of  any drug interactions with any of the drugs
listed above that would possibly cause the reactions described.

TIA
