Some imidazoles (miconazole, fluconazole) are known to interact with oral hypogly-caemic drugs (Chapter 6) by enhancing their activity and they may increase the risk of myopathy with lipid-lowering drugs statins (Chapter 4). Some imidazoles enhance the anticoagulant properties of warfarin. 

The evidence suggests that all the azole antifungals can raise ciclosporin levels to a greater or lesser degree. Ketoconazole may cause five- to tenfold rises, while itraconazole, fluconazole and voriconazole may cause two- to threefold rises. A case report suggests that intravenous miconazole interacts similarly and in theory, miconazole oral gel may also interact. Posaconazole may also modestly raise ciclosporin levels. Rhabdomyolysis has been reported with the combination of ciclosporin and itraconazole, but four of these cases were complicated by the presence of statins. 

Co-administration with drugs known to inhibit cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C9 (fluconazole, statin drugs) should be done with cauhon [Ij.
