PG - 380-388 LID - 10.1111/fcp.12959 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: Using statins in combination with other drugs was reported to increase the risk of myopathy. However, there was a sparse number of studies on the incidence of adverse events (AEs) associated with the concomitant use of statin and contraindicated drugs in the real world. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to identify the risk of concomitant use of statins with contraindicated drugs by exploring signals related to statin-drug interactions. METHODS: We performed a disproportionality analysis for drugs and AEs by applying the case/non-case study using the KIDS-KAERS database (KIDS-KD), 2016-2020. A case was defined as an individual case safety reports (ICSRs) including "rhabdomyolysis/myopathy." A non-case was defined as an ICSR, including all other AEs. We applied Omega shrinkage measure model, chi-square statics model, additive model, multiplicative model, and combination risk ratio model to detect signals of myopathy due to statin with concomitant drugs including antiviral agents, immunosuppressants, and antifungals. RESULTS: Among 1 011 234 ICSRs, 2708 were cases, with 861 cases of statin monotherapy and 1248 of concomitant uses of statin. The adjusted reporting odds ratios were 3.27 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.11-3.43), 8.70 (95% CI: 8.04-9.40), and 1.83 (95% CI: 1.73-1.94), respectively. Several combinations of signals were detected through an additive model or multiplicative model. CONCLUSION: Signals of an increased risk of myopathy associated with the use of statins with concomitant drugs, including contraindicated drugs, were confirmed in a real-world setting.
