| 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).

| Mechanism Description |
|
||||||||
| Recommended Action | |||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Management | Use of posaconazole in combination with a rifamycin should generally be avoided unless the potential benefit outweighs the risk. If coadministration is necessary, patient response to the antifungal agent must be closely monitored. When administered with rifabutin, close clinical and laboratory monitoring for rifabutin toxicity including leukopenia, uveitis, arthralgias, and skin discoloration are also recommended. | ||||||||
