Vitamin A and Rezafungin

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Moderate

HEPATOTOXIC DRUGS

Why this applies to Rezafungin

Rezafungin falls under HEPATOTOXIC DRUGS — the group Vitamin A interacts with.

Theoretically, taking high doses of vitamin A in combination with other potentially hepatotoxic drugs might increase the risk of liver disease.
The tolerable upper intake level (UL) is the highest level of intake that is likely to pose no risk of adverse effects. Doses of vitamin A above the UL can cause hepatotoxicity, ranging from elevated liver enzymes to liver failure.
Severity Moderate Likelihood Possible Evidence C

Interaction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the concern with pairing vitamin A and Rezafungin: both can be tough on your liver. This isn't about vitamin A changing how Rezafungin works or gets broken down. Instead, it's that two things that can stress the liver may add up. Rezafungin, like other antifungals in its class, can occasionally raise liver enzymes, and very high doses of vitamin A (above the safe upper limit) can do the same, sometimes leading to more serious liver trouble.

To be clear, this is theoretical and based on expert opinion, not hard proof. Normal dietary vitamin A or a regular multivitamin is very unlikely to be a problem. It's the concentrated, high-dose vitamin A supplements to watch. Since Rezafungin treats serious infections, please loop in your doctor or pharmacist before adding any vitamin A.

About Vitamin A

What is Vitamin A?

  • Eye and vision health
  • Skin health and acne
  • Immune support
  • Correcting vitamin A deficiency
  • Childhood growth and development

Vitamin A is an essential nutrient important for vision, skin, immune function, and growth. Most people get enough from a balanced diet, and supplements are mainly useful for correcting a true deficiency. Because vitamin A is fat-soluble and can build up to harmful levels, more is not better, and high doses are especially risky in pregnancy.
