RESUMO
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE: Paritaprevir/ritonavir/ombitasvir+dasabuvir (PrOD) is a direct-acting antiviral (DAA) approved for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus. We report on a probable interaction between PrOD with ribavirin and warfarin. CASE DESCRIPTION: Two weeks after the start of PrOD with ribavirin, the patient's international normalized ratio (INR) became subtherapeutic. Eleven weeks into therapy and following a 125% total increase in the weekly warfarin dose, therapeutic INR was achieved. Thirteen days after DAA therapy was completed and discontinued, the patient's INR became critically supratherapeutic. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION: Patients on PrOD plus ribavirin with warfarin should have INR followed closely upon initiation and discontinuation of therapy due to a probable drug interaction.
