Dyspepsia is the most common side effect of zileuton. Liver transaminase levels are elevated in a small percentage of patients taking zileuton. Serum Uver transaminase levels should be monitored and treatment halted if significant elevations occur. Zileuton inhibits the metabolism of theophylline. Thus, when these agents are used concomitantly, the dose of theophylline should be reduced by approximately one-half, and plasma concentrations of theophylline should be monitored closely. Caution should also be exercised when using zileuton concomitantly with warfarin, terfenadine, or propranolol, as zileuton inhibits the metabolism of these agents. Zileuton is contraindicated in patients with acute liver disease and should be used with caution in patients who consume substantial quantities of alcohol or have a history of liver disease.

Interactions Erythromycin and clarithromycin inhibit the hepatic metabolism of theophylline, warfarin, terfenadine, astemizole, carbamazepine and cyclosporine which can lead to toxic accumulations of these drugs. An interaction with digoxin may occur in some patients. In this case, the antibiotic eliminates a species of intestinal flora that ordinarily inactivates digoxin, thus leading to greater reabsorption of digoxin from the enterohepatic circulation. 

P450 enzyme inhibition by SSRIs may also augment effects of alcohol, tramadol, methadone, terfenadine (danger of cardiac arrhythmia), -caine anaesthetics and theophylline.

One of the important limitations to the widespread use of the macrolides has been the propensity to interact with other commonly administered medications. Serious, sometimes life-threatening, consequences have resulted from the administration of macrolides to patients receiving routine medications including theophylline, carbamazepine, terfenadine, and other frequently prescribed medications [4-6]. Most of these interactions involve inhibition of drug metabolism via cytochrome P-450 microsomal enzyme. However, not all macrolides have been associated with such drug interactions. 

Azithromycin Early evidence suggests that azithromycin does not inhibit hepatic drug metabolism. It does not appear to interact with carbamazepine, theophylline, or terfenadine. 

Clarithromycin Appears to act as an inhibitor of hepatic metabolism, but relative potency compared with erythromycin is not clear it appears to inhibit the metabolism of theophylline, carbamazepine, and terfenadine.
