| Protein Function |
Translocates drugs and phospholipids across the membrane (PubMed:8898203, PubMed:2897240, PubMed:9038218). Catalyzes the flop of phospholipids from the cytoplasmic to the exoplasmic leaflet of the apical membrane. Participates mainly to the flop of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, beta-D-glucosylceramides and sphingomyelins (PubMed:8898203). Energy-dependent efflux pump responsible for decreased drug accumulation in multidrug-resistant cells (PubMed:2897240, PubMed:9038218).

||||||||
| Recommended Action | |||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Management | Caution is advised if tolvaptan is prescribed in combination with P-glycoprotein inhibitors, especially potent ones such as amiodarone, cyclosporine, or quinidine. Serum sodium concentration and neurologic status should be closely monitored, and the tolvaptan dosage adjusted accordingly. Too rapid correction of hyponatremia increases the risk of osmotic demyelination syndrome, which is associated with dysarthria, mutism, dysphagia, lethargy, affective changes, spastic quadriparesis, seizures, coma, and death. Discontinuation or interruption of tolvaptan therapy should be considered in patients who develop too rapid a rise in serum sodium. | ||||||||
