Na Kava-mode.comKrátce a jasně
Kava can interact with medicines and other central nervous system depressants. Laboratory findings show several possible CYP inhibitions, but small human studies do not confirm one uniform pattern across all enzymes. Alcohol and sedatives in particular should not be self-combined; regular medication warrants individual review.
- ●Alkohol – Additive drowsiness and impaired coordination are possible; concurrent use is not recommended
- ●Benzodiazepiny – Possible additive CNS depression; combine only after professional review
- ●Antipsychotika – Sedation and pharmacokinetic interactions are possible; direct clinical data are limited
- ●Antikoagulancia – Controlled interaction data are lacking; the narrow therapeutic window requires medical review
Systém cytochromu P450
Systém cytochromu P450 (CYP450) je rodina enzymů v játrech, které jsou zodpovědné za metabolismus většiny léků. Když látka inhibuje tyto enzymy, jiné látky se metabolizují pomaleji – jejich účinek a vedlejší účinky se tím mohou zesílit.
Proč je to důležité?
Many medicines are metabolised by CYP enzymes. An in-vitro finding does not automatically mean clinically relevant inhibition in humans. Preparation, dose, duration and the medicine's therapeutic window determine practical relevance.
Které enzymy jsou inhibovány?
Mathews et al. (2002) tested kava extract and individual kavalactones in human liver microsomes and found inhibition of several CYP enzymes. These are in-vitro findings, not clinical inhibition ratings in humans:
| Enzym | Síla inhibice | Důležitá substráty (příklady) |
|---|---|---|
| CYP1A2 | In-vitro finding | Kofein, teofylin, klozapin, olanzapin |
| CYP2C9 | In-vitro finding | Warfarin, fenytoin, NSAID (ibuprofen) |
| CYP2C19 | In-vitro finding | Omeprazol, diazepam, klopidogrel |
| CYP2D6 | In-vitro finding | Kodein, tramadol, mnoho antidepresiv |
| CYP3A4 | In-vitro finding | Benzodiazepiny, statiny, mnoho antibiotik |
Klinický význam
Russmann et al. (2005) reported reduced CYP1A2 activity in chronic users of traditional aqueous kava. Gurley et al. (2005; 12 healthy volunteers, 28 days, 138 mg kavalactones/day), by contrast, found reduced CYP2E1 but no significant change in CYP1A2, CYP2D6 or CYP3A4/5. The human findings are small and preparation- and consumption-dependent, so they cannot predict every medicine interaction.
Vysokorizikové kombinace
The following combinations should be avoided or medically reviewed in advance. Reasons differ: some involve additive CNS effects or case reports, while others have only mechanistic signals and no controlled combination trials.
⚠ Alkohol
Risiko: AVOID
Concurrent use of kava and alcohol is not recommended:
- 1.Additive CNS effects: Drowsiness, slower reactions and impaired coordination may increase.
- 2.Liver risk not quantified: A combined liver risk has not been quantified reliably; the combination is avoided because of this uncertainty.
- 3.Unpredictable intensity: Product, amount, drinking pattern and individual sensitivity make effects difficult to predict.
Do not use kava and alcohol together. The main practical reason is possible additive impairment of attention, reaction and coordination; the size of any additional liver risk is not reliably established.
⚠ Benzodiazepiny a sedativa
Risiko: PROFESSIONAL REVIEW
Do not combine benzodiazepines or Z-drugs with kava without medical review:
- •Additive sedation: Drowsiness and psychomotor impairment may increase.
- •CNS depression: Clinically relevant potentiation is possible; controlled combination trials are lacking.
- •Interpret CYP findings: CYP3A4 inhibition was observed in vitro but not consistently confirmed in small human studies.
Případová zpráva: Almeida & Grimsley (1996) described a semicomatose state in a 54-year-old man after reported kava and alprazolam use. A single case report is a warning signal but does not establish mechanism or frequency.
⚠ Antipsychotika
Risiko: PROFESSIONAL REVIEW
Individual medical review is appropriate before kava use with antipsychotics:
- •Sedation: Additive drowsiness or psychomotor impairment is possible.
- •Case reports: Individual reports describe movement disorders; frequency and causality are unclear.
- •CYP findings: Laboratory inhibition does not reliably predict the level of a specific medicine.
⚠ Antikoagulancia (ředidla krve)
Risiko: PROFESSIONAL REVIEW
Warfarin, phenprocoumon and other anticoagulants require professional review because of their narrow therapeutic window:
- •Mechanistic signal: CYP2C9 inhibition was observed in vitro; a clinical kava-warfarin interaction has not been established in controlled studies.
- •Monitor INR: Changes in co-used products should be coordinated with the treating clinician.
- •Bleeding risk: The baseline risk of anticoagulation makes self-testing inappropriate.
Use kava with anticoagulation only after individual medical review.
Kombinace se středním rizikem
Následující kombinace vyžadují opatrnost a měly by být prováděny pouze po konzultaci s lékařem. Úprava dávky může být nutná.
Antidepresiva
Risiko: PROFESSIONAL REVIEW
- • Pharmacokinetic interactions may occur depending on the product but are not clinically established as a class
- • Serotonin syndrome from kava is not established as a typical clinical effect
- • Additive drowsiness or dizziness are possible
- • Direct clinical combination data are limited
- • Review co-medication individually rather than inferring from in-vitro CYP data
- • MAO-B effects of individual kavalactones have been studied preclinically
- • Pawa et al. (2026) found MAO-A inhibition by flavokawain A in an in-vitro enzyme assay; humans and combination with MAO inhibitors were not studied
- • Do not self-combine with MAO inhibitors because medicine interactions can be serious
- • Obtain medical review before use
Antikonvulziva (antiepileptika)
Risiko: PROFESSIONAL REVIEW
Fenytoin, karbamazepin, valproát a další antikonvulziva:
- •Pharmacokinetics: Altered levels are possible but cannot be predicted reliably for individual combinations.
- •CNS effects: Additive drowsiness or coordination problems are possible.
- •Seizure control: Changes in co-used products belong under professional supervision.
Při epilepsii by měla být Kava používána pouze pod lékařským dohledem.
Léky na Parkinsonovu chorobu
Risiko: PROFESSIONAL REVIEW
Levodopa a dopaminoví agonisté:
- •Mechanism unclear: Blanket clinical dopamine antagonism by kava has not been established.
- •Case reports: Individual reports describe worsening Parkinson symptoms; medical review is therefore needed.
With Parkinson's disease or related medication, use kava only after medical review.
Hepatotoxické léky
Risiko: STŘEDNÍ
Léky s známým hepatotoxickým potenciálem:
- •Paracetamol/acetaminofen: Zvláště problematické při vyšších dávkách
- •Statiny: Atorvastatin, simvastatin atd. (substráty CYP3A4)
- •Methotrexát: Imunosupresivum s hepatotoxicitou
- •Isoniazid: Lék na tuberkulózu
Additional liver risk is plausible but not quantified for every combination. Potentially hepatotoxic medication requires individual medical review.
