    Azapropazone caused bone marrow hypoplasia in a patient treated with methotrexate for psoriasis. This suggests a potential drug interaction affecting medication levels.

    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacology
    • Dermatology
    • Hematology

    Background:

    • Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin condition.
    • Methotrexate is a common disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) used for psoriasis.
    • Azapropazone is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID).

    Observation:

    • A patient with psoriasis, stabilized on regular methotrexate therapy, developed bone marrow hypoplasia.
    • Bone marrow hypoplasia occurred after the administration of azapropazone.

    Findings:

    • The adverse event suggests a potential drug interaction between azapropazone and methotrexate.
    • A pharmacokinetic interaction, altering drug concentrations, is hypothesized as the underlying mechanism.

    Implications:

    • Clinicians should be aware of the potential for severe adverse events when co-prescribing azapropazone and methotrexate.
    • Further investigation into the pharmacokinetic interaction is warranted to ensure patient safety.
