Abstract
Boceprevir is a NS3/4A hepatitis C virus (HCV) protease inhibitor, used in combination with peginterferon and ribavirin to treat HCV. Boceprevir undergoes extensive metabolism via cytochrome P450-mediated oxidation and ketoreduction by cytosolic aldo-keto reductases. Amlodipine has been used for the treatment of patients with hypertension and also metabolised through cytochrome P450 pathway. Here, we presented a case of boceprevir and amlodipine interaction in a patient with chronic HCV and her echocardiography and electrocardiographic follow-up results.
